4.5 Inflating by mouth
WARNING
Never inflate the flotation device by mouth and trigger the CO2 cartridge afterwards.
This may cause over-inflation and serious damage.
Never fill buoy with other gases!
Do not fill buoy with the help of an inflation device (e.g. pneumatic pump)!
Please avoid inhaling the CO2 gas from the flotation device when topping up the buoy via
the oral valve.
•
Remove buoy from pocket.
•
Open the Velcro on the safety leash and unwrap safety leash.
•
Unfold buoy completely.
•
Open the cap of the oral valve.
•
Inflate buoy with your breath using the valve.
4.6 How do I make RESTUBE ready for its next use?
Once RESTUBE has been triggered, it must be made ready to be used again. You will need
an original RESTUBE-CO2-Cartridge with a securing clip.
WARNING
Only the original RESTUBE-CO2-Cartridges are 100% quality-certified, seawater resistant,
rustproof, and the force is tailored to the RESTUBE trigger!
Do not use comparable commercial CO2 cartridges!
These will not guarantee inflation of RESTUBE in an emergency.

The buoy
NOTICE
Pointed or sharp objects can damage the valve! The buoy can only be folded away correctly
when there is no gas in it.
Empty the buoy completely (#2)
•
Open the cap of the mouthpiece.
•
To release the gas from the buoy, plug the back of the cap
into the oral valve.
•
Fully release gas by folding or rolling the buoy.

Close the cap of the oral valve.
Longitudinal fold (#3)
•
Spread out the buoy so that the trigger mechanism is in
the top left.
•
Fold up the bottom part of the buoy along the horizontal
dotted line.
•
Tuck the folded part of the buoy under the CO2 cartridge so
that the oral valve folds away to the left.
Zigzag fold (#4)
•
Turn the buoy so that the trigger mechanism is facing
upward.
•
Fold over the bottom end of the buoy to the back along
the first solid line.
NOTICE
The words “Oben/Top/Haute” must be visible.
•
Fold over the next part to the front along the dotted line
•
Continue until you reach the trigger.

The buoy is correctly folded if the CO2 cartridge is on the
outside.
•
The last fold must be to the back.
Wrapping the safety leash around the buoy (#5)
•
Hold the folded buoy firmly in one hand.
•
Use the free hand to wrap the safety leash exactly once
around the buoy and the back end of the CO2 cartridge.

Do not wrap the remaining safety leash further around the buoy –
store it behind the CO2 cartridge in the pocket.
