DEFLATING
Complete deflation is easiest when you are not wearing the
flotation device.
1. To deflate the flotation device, reverse the oral inflator cap
and insert it into the valve. The cap will not lock in the deflate
position, so you must hold it in place (Fig. 5).
2. Gently squeeze the flotation device until all air or gas has been
expelled. Put the cap back in its stowed position on the oral
inflator (Fig. 6).
