DLX 38 INFLATABLE PFD
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR AUTOMATIC DEVICES (MD2953)
The Inflatable PFD might not be armed when needed, either
knowingly or unknowingly. Premature automatic inflation causes
several risks that you must address to avoid drowning. Much less
common but also important are:
1. Inflation when stored in a tight space could damage the PFD, and
2. The PFD could inflate when you are in an awkward place or
position.
3. Premature inflation may occur in certain conditions, including
when the device is subjected to: heavy splashing, high humidity,
heavy fog, and heavy rain.
4. Care and attention should be taken to ensure that when the
device is used in these types of conditions, auto-inflation does not
occur prematurely.
5. If this PFD should inflate prematurely, a re-arm kit (MA7114) is
required to re-arm the device.
IMPORTANT: THE INFLATABLE PFD SHOULD BE RE-ARMED ACCORDING TO THE
INSTRUCTIONS (SEE RE-ARMING YOUR PFD (MD2953), P. 14).
