Waterproof Drysuite Owners Manual

Congratulations on purchasing a Waterproof Drysuit
!
This suit has been carefully manufactured from the best
available materials, and with reasonable care it will give you
many years of service. Please read the care, maintenance and
use information in this manual and follow the suggestions
carefully.
Important note!
Drysuit diving can add immensely to the comfort, enjoyment, and safety of cold
water divers.
But while drysuits are easy to use, like any piece of diving equipment they require
instruction in proper use and safety procedures.
If you are unfamiliar with diving in drysuits, or with the type of suit you have
purchased, make sure you have received training in a confined water situation
before attempting to dive in open water. A drysuit course is an excellent idea. At
minimum, you should have some supervised confined water training in drysuit use
that meets the standards of your certifying agency. Certain aspects of weighting,
buoyancy control and emergency procedure must be handled differently in a
drysuit, and while the techniques are easy to master for most divers (many feel
diving in a drysuit is easier than diving in a wetsuit) proper instruction can make
your initial open water experience more enjoyable and much safer.
