Important Notes :
Carefully check the Lifejacket before use. The air tightness of the floatation chamber can be checked by mouth inflation through the oral tube. Discard the lifejacket if the air leaks out. After checking make sure you deflate the chamber completely. Do not unscrew the CO2 cylinder or operate the gas unless the air chamber is completely deflated. It will overfill and burst the chamber.
Do not knock or drop the lifejacket from a height.
Do not expose to bright sunlight for extended periods
Avoid contact with oil, acid, alkali and solvents. Do not subject the material to contact with sharp objects, high heat or flame.
The CO2 cylinder and water dissolution capsule are single use devices and must be replaced after each use.
Store in a clean, cool and dry place. Do not subject the lifejacket to compression under heavy weights.
The shelf Life of this lifejacket is three years. The CO2 cylinder charge must be inspected once a year.
