Pearl i3 BC Owner’s Manual 9
NOTE: This final threading step is done when the BC is secured to the cyl-
inder (refer to step 4, p. 7). Close the buckle halfway to prevent the webbing
from slipping and thread the free end of the band through the open slot in
the end of the buckle.
WARNING : The use of oversized twin set ups can lead to a danger -
ous situation underwater, including your inability to achieve positive
buoyancy, or structural failure of the backpack. Such an event while
diving may separate you from your primary air source, and could lead
to serious injury or death.
Double Cylinder Setup
Aqua Lung does not offer a twin cylinder kit for the Pearl i3. If you
want to adapt twin cylinders to the Pearl i3, you must consult with your
professional dive retailer about third-party twin band kits that would work
with the Pearl i3.
Before adapting your BC for use with double cylinders, it is important to
compare the lift capacity of your particular BC size and model with the
buoyancy specifications of the cylinders, the amount of weight you will
carry, and the type of exposure suit you will wear. When fully charged and
worn together as doubles, some cylinders may create enough negative
buoyancy to counteract the amount of lift your BC can provide. At depth,
this can lead to a dangerous situation if your wetsuit becomes compressed
and you can no longer achieve positive buoyancy by jettisoning weight.
