Uninspected Commercial Vessel Use
This Inflatable PFD is not approved for “hot work” and care must be
taken to avoid damage from abrasion and sharp objects.
Component Inspection Instructions
1) Examine the single point status indicator through the window panel
(Fig. 1). Ensure the indicator is green. If the indicator is red, the
mechanism has been fired or is incorrectly fitted (see Re-arming Your
PFD, p. 9).
NOTE: The single point status indicator must be green before
proceeding.
2) Undo the zipper on the wearer's left side, exposing the oral inflator.
3) Ensure the oral-inflation dust cap is in the stowed position (Fig. 6).
4) Ensure the single point status indicator is green and the pull-
tab lanyard is hanging on the outside; secure the zippers on the
Inflatable PFD (see Repacking, p.13).
5) Ensure the current date is not past the date on the inflator. If it is,
replace the inflator (see Re-arming Your PFD, p. 9).
