Taking off the BCD 

 
1) 

Find a flat surface to set the cylinder(s) down so pressure is taken off the harness. It is a good idea to 
have your dive buddy keeping the cylinder(s) steady until the BCD is off.   

 
2) 

Undo the waist strap and crotch strap by releasing the weight buckle   

 

For the deluxe harness, please also undo the sternum strap 

 
3) 

Move arms out of the shoulder straps or if using the deluxe harness, it can be easier by undo either or 
both of the shoulder strap buckles.   

 
 
 

BCD care and storing 

 

-

  Do not put or drag the BCD across rough and / or sharp surfaces. 

 

-

  Do not place any sharp and / or heavy object on any part of the BCD. 

 

-

  Do not expose the BCD to the sun while not actually diving. 

 

-

  Immediately after a dive, rinse the BCD with fresh water as soon as it is possible. The air cell will require 

extra cleaning on the inside and it can be easier done if it is taken off the BCD assembly. Press the power 
inflator’s deflation button to let fresh water in through the mouthpiece. At about a quarter full, gently shake 
then turn the air cell upside down so it can be rinsed thoroughly. Drain some water through the inflator 
mouthpiece then the rest through the over-pressure valve(s). Repeat 2 to 3 times. 

 

-

  Hang the BCD up to dry in a shaded place and inflate the air cell so it can dry inside and out – 

DO NOT

 use 

a hook on the fabric part of the air cell when hanging or damage can result!!! 

 

 

Do not put your BCD away until it is completely dry! 

 

-

  Store the BCD with the air cell slightly inflated in a cool, shaded place. 

 

-

  Have an IST authorised dealer to inspect your air cell at least once a year to ensure proper and safe 

functioning of all parts.

VII. WARRANTY 

 

 

Use of non-original factory parts or any modification may 
irreparably damage this BCD, which will render the

or air holding capability while diving. This could result in 
injury or death. ONLY replace worn or damaged items 
with genuine, factory supplied parts from an IST

warranty in effect 

 

The warranty of this floatation device is valid to the original owner only (with proof of purchase) AND 
it covers any defects in materials and / or workmanship for the period of 

2 years

 from the date of 

purchase. Proper maintenance as prescribed in this manual is required to uphold the warranty 
during valid coverage period. Any wear and tear under normal usage, as well as any commercial / 
rental usage, are not covered by this warranty. The following action will also void the warranty: 
incorrect use or misuse (intentional or unintentional) of the BCD; the use of non – IST original parts; 
any modification; servicing task performed by an unqualified and / or non - IST authorised dealer.
