2) Gently squeeze the Inflatable PFD until all air or gas has been
expelled. To avoid damage do not wring or twist the Inflatable
PFD. Put the inflation tube dust cap back in its stowed position on
the oral inflation tube (Fig. 6).
3) Examine the service indicator (Fig. 1). If the service indicator is
red, the mechanism has been fired or is incorrectly fitted and the
inflator requires service (see "Re-arming Your PFD (MD2015)"
on page 7 or see "Re-arming Your PFD (MD2017)" on page
9).
Note: The service indicator must be green before
proceeding.
4) Your device is ready to be repacked (see "Repacking" on page 12).
RE-ARMING YOUR PFD (MD2015)
NOTE: A re-arm kit (MA2014) is required for this
procedure.
IMPORTANT: Follow instructions in the exact sequence
below.
1) Unpack or open the Inflatable PFD so that the manual inflator is
exposed (Fig. 7).
2) Remove the cylinder/bayonet assembly by rotating counter-
clockwise and then pull out. Discard the used cylinder/bayonet
assembly.
3) Check the new cylinder/bayonet assembly to ensure the o-ring is
in place and the sensor ring is attached (Fig. 7). Ensure that the
CO
2
cylinder has not been pierced (Fig. 10).
4) Raise, and hold, the lever into the inflator housing. Install a new
cylinder/bayonet assembly by engaging bayonet tabs in housing,
pushing in then turning clockwise 1/8 turn to a full stop (Fig. 8).
WARNING: PFD WILL ONLY INFLATE IF CYLINDER IS
TURNED TO A FULL STOP.
