IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
BLUEHEAT™ AND DRYSUIT GUIDELINES
The BlueHeat™ System is designed to be used under a drysuit.The following
drysuit safety practices should be followed.These safety practices have been
adopted and endorsed by several manufacturers of drysuits, including DUI:
• Complete a drysuit diving course from an instructor and stay current by
practicing your skills often.
• Use a buoyancy compensation device for surface flotation and back up.
Never use a drysuit as a buoyancy device.
• Know your equipment and emergency procedures.
• Practice your drysuit diving skills under controlled conditions until they
become second nature.
• Dive with a dive partner who understands your drysuit system.
• Use the correct amount of insulation for the water temperature in which
you are diving and exercise rate.
• Do not weight yourself heavier than neutral buoyancy with an empty tank.
Your weighting should allow you to make a safety stop at ten feet upon
completion of your dive with a tank containing 500 psi (34 Bar) of air or
less.
• Check your valves, zipper and seals before each dive.
• Perform preventive maintenance and repairs on your drysuit and valves
regularly, or have them serviced by a qualified individual.
• Know your limitations and do not exceed them.
• Water or air temperatures below 70°F (21°C) constitute cold water diving.
• Water or air temperatures below 40°F (5°C) constitute ice diving. Ice diving
is very dangerous and requires special training.
