ADJUSTABLE ERGONOMIC SEAT(S)
Your product is supplied with a (or several) adjustable ergonomic seat(s). The seat is held in place by the hook-and-loop
strips on the underside and by webbing straps on the sides of the backrest. Place the seat(s) into the product, matching
the position of the hook-and-loop strips. Attach the webbing straps from the sides of the backrest to the buckles located
on the sides of the REEF. Tighten the straps as needed for the proper back support.
WARNING !
If you leave your product exposed to the hot sun check the pressure and deflate it slightly, otherwise the
material might be overstretched.
The ambient temperature affects the tube’s internal pressure : a variation of
1°C/ 1.8°F causes a variation of the pressure in the tube of +/- 4 mBar (0.06 PSI).

MAINTENANCE : DEFLATING – FOLDING THE ITEM – CLEANING – WINTERING STORAGE
1. Remove oars/paddles and other accessories.
2. To deflate open the valve cap of the (Jumbo) push-in valves.
3. Clean and check the item as well as all the accessories after each use. Rinse it thoroughly making sure to remove
any residues of salt if used in salt water. Use a mild soapy solution, do not use detergents or any type of silicone-
based products. Make sure the product is completely dry before putting it away.
4. Fold the 2 sides into the middle, then roll it up from the opposite end of the valves (so remaining air can escape from
the valves); start again if you feel there is still some air in the tubes.
5. When storing your inflatable, keep it in a clean and dry place that is not affected from major variations in temperature
and other damaging factors. You may store it deflated and rolled up in its bag or assembled and lightly inflated (make
sure you do not subject it to deformations). Store it away from rodents.
WARNING !
Water will enter between the outer hull and inside chambers, this is O.K ; however, whenever you take this
item out of the water and deflate it, allow for it to air out and dry, neither the skin/hull or the inside chambers
will suffer from water damage, but stagnant water could cause mildew and foul odor.
HOW TO REPAIR SMALL PUNCTURES
You can repair small punctures with the included repair kit. Please note that in order for the repair to be successful, the
humidity level should be less than 60%, temperature between 65°F / 77°F or 18°C / 25°C. Avoid carrying out repairs in
the rain or in direct sunlight.
To remove the inside bladder please open the zipper of the REEF for quick and easy access. Check that the tube is fully
deflated and lies flat.
1. Draw the shape of the patch exactly where it will be applied, cut a round patch at least 2” / 5 cm larger than the
cut/damaged area.
2. Clean the damaged area and the corresponding side of the patch with a grease remover of the alcohol type and
allow for it to dry for 5 minutes.
3. Apply 3 thin layers of glue on both the patch and the damaged area, allow for it to dry for 5 minutes between layers
until the glue feels tacky.
4. When the third layer of glue is dry, apply the patch without pressing and adjust the positioning if required, press the
air bubbles which may have formed under the patch by smoothing the patch with a round object such as a spoon, do
this procedure by starting in the center of the patch towards the outside, clean the excess glue with a solvent.
Drying: 12 hours.
