IS YOUR PFD IN GOOD AND SERVICEABLE CONDITION?
Check your PFD between outings to be sure that it is properly armed,
as shown by green single point indicator; that it is free of rips, tears or
holes; that all seams are securely sewn; and that the fabric, straps and
hardware are still strong. Inspect the inflatable portion of the PFD in
accordance with the CARE AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS (p. 24).
CARE AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
It is the responsibility of the wearer to be sure this PFD is in serviceable
condition. To be considered serviceable, this PFD shall not exhibit
deterioration that could diminish its performance, such as broken or
deformed hardware, detached webbing, rotted structural components,
air leaks or nonfunctional inflators. Unless worn inflated, this PFD must
also be properly armed with a cylinder installed in the inflator, and single
point status indicator showing green. See Page 3 for instructions. Failure
to follow these instructions rigorously could result in a non-functioning
PFD causing injury or death.
Check the following at the intervals listed below.
1) Before Each Use:
i) Examine the single point status indicator through the window
panel, ensuring it is green. If the indicator is red, the mechanism
requires service. See Re-arming Your PFD, p. 11.
ii) Ensure the manual beaded handle is accessible.
iii) Visually examine your Inflatable Vest with LIFT
