Be sure to put on the protection cap again. (For protection from dirt and damages)Your vessel has Rive
independent compartments. InRlate each one enough to give them some volume without putting in too
much pressure. Once the craft has adopted its shape, inRlate each compartment, starting from the back, to
the full recommended pressure of 0.3 Bar.
If you don’t have a pressure gauge, keep inRlating until you notice a Rirm resistance. Check the degree of
rigidity of the inRlatable compartments, verifying their Rinal pressure. If you have any doubts, it’s
recommended keeping the pressure low rather than to inRlate in excess.
Pressure rises with the increase in temperature – for example, a 1 degree Celsius increase in temperature
means a 3 Millibar increase in pressure. The pressure will decrease once the craft is in the water or at
night, and will increase when the craft is warmed by excessive exposure to the sun. For this reason, it’s
recommended that when the craft is not in use, or lying in direct sunlight out of the water, you should
reduce the air pressure to compensate for the expansion of air. If your craft is Ritted with pressure relief
valves, they automatically open at 0.4 Bar, releasing excess pressure above this valve.
DEFLATION PROCEDURE:
Remove the valve cap; push the plunger, twisting to the left where it will remain Rixed in the open
position. Once the craft is completely deRlated, release the plunger by twisting to the right and replace the
valve cap.
