Every Six (6) Months:
In addition to the inspections specified for before each use, perform
the following at least every 6 months, or more often if exposed to
potential damage or used in extreme conditions.
Leak Test: Your Inflatable PFD should be tested for leakage by
inflating with air until firm and leaving it to stand for at least
2 hours in a temperature controlled environment. A leaking
Inflatable PFD will not remain firm and should be replaced. If
your Inflatable PFD leaks, contact Mustang Survival
customer service.
Annually:
In addition to the inspections specified for every six months, perform
the following at the beginning of each boating season or whenever
the integrity of your inflatable PFD is in doubt:
Thoroughly check all components for dirt and/or corrosion.
Clean or replace, as necessary. If any item shows signs of
damage, perform inspections listed in "Every Six (6) Months"
inspection details. If in doubt, contact Mustang Survival
customer service.
For MD2953 only.
Ensure the current date is not three (3)
years past the date on the bobbin. If it is, re-arm the inflator
(See Re-arming Your PFD, p. 14).
CLEANING AND STORING YOUR PFD
To clean your inflatable PFD, hand wash or sponge down in warm,
soapy water, taking care not to get the inflator wet. Rinse your PFD
with clean water, and hang to dry on a plastic coat hanger. Do not
dry-clean, use chlorine bleach, or apply direct heat. Always store
your fully dried PFD in a warm, dry, well ventilated place out of direct
sunlight.
