Inflatable PFD Owner’s Manual 7
1) Double inflation (CO
2
cylinder inflation after full oral inflation) could
damage the Inflatable PFD,
2) Inflation when stored in a tight space could damage the Inflatable
PFD, and
3) The Inflatable PFD could inflate when you are in an awkward place
or position.
If this Inflatable PFD should inflate inadvertantly, a re-arm kit
(MA7214) is required to re-arm the device.
IMPORTANT: The Inflatable PFD should be re-armed according
to the instructions (Re-arming Your PFD, p. 8).
Deflating the Inflatable PFD
1) To deflate the Inflatable PFD, reverse
the oral-inflation tube dust cap and
insert it into the valve or depress
valve with fingertip. The dust cap
will not lock in the deflate position
so it is necessary to hold it in place
(Fig. 6).
2) Gently squeeze the Inflatable PFD
until all air or gas has been expelled.
To avoid damage; do not wring or
twist the Inflatable PFD. Put the
inflation tube dust cap back in its
stowed position on the oral inflation
tube (Fig. 7).
IMPORTANT: Ensure all air has
been removed from the PFD.
3) Examine the single point status
indicator (Fig. 1 and 2). If the indicator is red, the mechanism has
been fired and the inflator requires service (see Re-arming your PFD,
p. 9).
IMPORTANT: The single point status indicator must be green
before proceeding.
4) Your device is ready to be repacked (see Repacking p. 11).
