2.14.2 The pressure of the expanding gas forces the fasteners around the periphery of the protective
container to separate, automatically opening the protective container and allowing the cell to
reach its fully inflated shape.
NOTE: Carbon dioxide gas does not remain in the life preserver indefinitely. Either of
the oral inflator valves can be used as a means of compensating for normal cell
leakage. The oral inflators are also provided as an emergency back up in the
unlikely event that the CO
2
inflation device fails.
