Owner's Guide

In the event that any component of your regulator assembly requires any form of

repair or service, return it to your local Authorized Oceanic Dealer for profes-

sional service by a trained technician authorized to perform Oceanic factory au-

thorized service.

Once each year your complete regulator assembly should be inspected and ser-

viced by an Authorized Oceanic Dealer.  More frequent service is recom-

mended if you dive in severe conditions or more frequently than an average

diver (see guidelines on page 18).

Annual Service consists of:

  Inspection

  Complete disassembly

  Thorough cleaning and evaluation of reusable parts

  Replacement of non-reusable parts

  Complete reassembly

  Final adjustment and testing

Costs for routine inspection and Annual Service are understood to be a normal

part of operation, and are not covered by the regulator's limited warranty.

If Warranty Service is requested, or routine service parts are requested in ac-

cordance with a Registered Service Agreement, present the appropriate

documents (i.e., card, receipts, and service records) to the Authorized Oceanic

Dealer when the regulator is delivered for service.
