INFLATION VALVE OPERATION
1. Open external cap and pull firmly to extend out. (Fig.1)
2. Attach suitable adapter nozzle to inflation end of pump. Insert pump and start pumping. (Fig.2)
3. When fully inflated, gently twist adapter sleeve to right while backing pump out of valve.(Fig.3)
4. Fully remove adapter and close external stopper. Valve should appear depressed into
itself. (Fig.4)
INFLATION STEPS
1. Inflate the chambers following the numerical sequence marked on the valves. It is very
important to follow the numerical sequence; failure to do so will result in an improper inflated
boat.
2. Inflate the floor until it is stiff to the touch but NOT hard.
3. Inflate the hull. Fill each chamber until it is stiff to the touch but NOT hard.
NOTES:
Air temperature and weather condition do affect the internal air pressure of inflatable products.
In cold weather the product will lose some pressure due to the fact that the air will contract. If
this occurs, you may want to add a little air to the product. However, in hot weather, the air will
expand. You must let some air out to prevent the product from failing due to overpressure.
• Only use Aqua Marina® approved inflation pumps.
• Never use motor-driven high-pressure air pumps as this may result in over-inflation. Fill with
cold air only.
• Under and over-inflation will result in safety hazards.
• Never stand on or rest objects on the boat during inflation.
• Never open the cap of air valve while the boat is in use.
• Be sure the valve is tightly closed before using the boat.

IMPORTANT!
Please use the transparent scale (come with the repair kits bag) to
check if the air floor is properly inflated. The black line on the floor
should NOT be longer than the MAX. scale.
