WARNING:
Be careful of any sand or debris around the valve area when deflating as small items could be
thrown out with releasing air.
Always lock the valve cover over the valve stem when in use. This will prevent the air from
coming out and dirt from coming in.
INFLATION STEPS
1. Ensure the air valve central pin is properly in position by rotating the control stem until it pops
out. This ensures no air escapes during inflation.
2. Inflate the hull. After inflation, insert the provided pressure gauge into the air valve to check
the air pressure. The ideal pressure is 0.16 bar
– 0.25 bar (Fig. 1).
3. Inflate the keel. Stop inflating until the pressure reaches 0.3 bar (Fig. 2).

NOTE:
Check the pressure before each using. Air pressure and weather conditions can influence internal
pressure of inflatable products. The pressure will be decreased in cold water because of air
contraction. If it occurs, you should add some air to the product. On the other hand, the air will expand
in warm days. You have to deflate some air to protect it from damage due overpressure.
Use only Aqua Marina® approved inflation pumps.
Never use motor driven high-pressure air pumps as these may cause over inflation. Fill it only
with cold air.
Overinflating could result in serious safety hazard.
Always check the inflation pressure before using this product.
Never stand on this product or on its marginal parts during inflation.
Never open the cap of the air valve while this product is being used.
Make sure that the valve is tightly closed before each using.
