DEFLATING YOUR PFD
1. To deflate the PFD, reverse the oral inflation tube cap and insert
it into the valve or depress the valve with your fingertip. The cap
will not lock in the deflate position so it is necessary to hold it in
place (Fig. 6).
2. Gently squeeze the PFD until all air or gas has been expelled. To
avoid damage, do not wring or twist the PFD. Put the inflation
tube cap back in its stowed position on the oral inflation tube
(Fig. 7).
ENSURE ALL AIR HAS BEEN REMOVED FROM THE PFD.
3. Examine the single point status indicator (Fig. 2 or 2a on p. 4).
If the indicator is red, the mechanism has been fired and the
inflator requires service (see Re-arming Your PFD, p. 9).
THE SINGLE POINT STATUS INDICATOR MUST BE GREEN BEFORE PROCEEDING.
4. Your device is ready to be repacked (see Repacking Your PFD,
p. 13).
USAGE BELOW FREEZING
Do not use inflatable PFDs in below freezing temperatures because
a fully discharged cylinder may not quickly or adequately inflate
your PFD.
