INFLATABLE PERSONAL FLOTATION DEVICE
INSPECTING COMPONENTS
Before each use, check your PFD for readiness – you must be able to
answer ‘yes’ to these questions:
1. Is the status indicator green? Through the window panel on the
front of your PFD, check the status indicator to ensure it is green
(Fig. 3). If the indicator is red, the mechanism has been fired.
Re-arm your PFD before proceeding (see Re-arming, p. 19).
2.
Is the date on the inflator cap still in the future? If the date on
the inflator cap (Fig. 3) has already passed, replace the inflation
equipment before proceeding (see Re-arming, p. 19).
3. Is the cap for the oral tube in place? Undo the Velcro™ tab on
(wearer’s) left side at bottom, to expose the zipper. Undo the
zipper by placing a finger underneath the zipper and running it up
(toward wearer’s face). Unfold the material to expose the oral tube.
Make sure the cap is in place, covering the oral tube (Fig. 4). Close
the side up again by first re-folding the material; then close the
zipper by zipping down to the zipper stop and then back up again.
4. Is the pull-handle for manual inflation visible? Look for the silver
handle on (wearer’s) right side. Each end of the handle must held
by its stretch tab, and the front flap of the PFD must be tucked
under the handle.
