no leakage and chamber is in operational condition. If the
chamber deflates, immediately bring to a Stearns certified
Repair Facility for repair. The device is no longer in
operational condition.
3. Automatic Inflation System
– This test should be performed
during years when the PFD is not inspected by a certified
repair facility. With device packed as normal, immerse the
device into a tub of water and see if it inflates. DRY, REARM
and REPACK as shown on back cover of pamphlet.
4. Function Test of Oral Valve
- Remove the dust protection
cap. With the PFD inflated, test the valve by pushing it down
using the tab provided on the cap (refer to page 9). The valve
should depress easily, and when released it should
automatically return to the closed position and reseal.
REARMING OF INFLATOR MECHANISM
Use Replacement Kit No. 0920 and 0923. See Rearming
Instructions on back cover for details.
