X. EACH OF THESE DEVICES IS
INTENDED TO HELP YOU SAVE YOUR OWN LIFE

For your PFD to function properly follow these suggestions to verify that it
fits, floats, and remains in good condition.

1. Check the status of the inflator and make sure that the status indicator

is green. Check before each outing.

2. Get in the habit of rearming the inflation mechanism right after each

CO2 inflation.

3. This PFD requires rearming with a new cylinder after each CO2

inflation. Always have rearming kits to service your inflatable PFDs.

4. Try your wearable PFD on and adjust it until it fits comfortably in and

out of the water.

5. Mark your PFD with your name if you are the only wearer.

6. Do not alter your PFD. If it doesn't fit properly, get one that does. An

altered device is no longer Coast Guard approved.

7. Your PFD is not intended for use as a fender or kneeling pad.

8. If your PFD is wet, allow it to dry thoroughly before storing it. Store it

in a well-ventilated area.

9. Do not dry your PFD in front of a radiator or other source of direct

heat.
