a. Just as with a standard BC 

power inflator, there are two 

options for adding air to your 

BC. You can use the smaller,  

blue power inflator button or

button.

 

i. Power inflation, is the most 

common. Simply depress the 

blue button in short bursts, 

as needed, to route air from 

you cylinder into your BC. 

 

ii. Oral inflation, which is 

less common, is done by

mouthpiece, fully depressing

mouthpiece. Release the 

button to capture the 

exhaled air. Fully depressing

off the regulator exhaust

be routed into the BC.
