AFTER YOU DIVE WITH SPARE AIR

1. Visually check the Pressure Indicator Gauge and press Purge

Button.

2. White Indicator Pin should be extended and airflow should occur.

This ensures pressure was maintained during your dive.

NOTE: If Indicator Pin is not extended or no air flow occurs,
water and contaminants may have entered the regulator’s
internal stage and could lead to corrosion and/or failure of the
system. Contact your Authorized SPARE AIR Dealer or
Submersible Systems, Inc. for service and/or check-up.

3. Remove SPARE AIR from the Holster to rinse and dry.

4. With pressure in the SPARE AIR, rinse or soak in fresh water for 30

minutes and run fresh water inside the mouthpiece and around the
regulator.

5. Shake excess water from the system and dry thoroughly.

CAUTION: Never use chemicals or solvents to clean SPARE AIR.
