any type and clean, if necessary. Clean in accor-

dance with the KMDSI cleaning instructions. If

A repair kit is available for replacement parts, 

(Part #525-330). This one-way valve kit is also in-

 tape to cover 

the end of the adapter, or to enter the 

one-way valve. Loose pieces of Tef-

lon

 tape can interfere with the per-

formance of the one-way valve or the 

regulator and may block the diver’s 

air supply. This could lead to death 

through suffocation.
