Resumen del manual


Inspect the inflatable portion of the PFD in accordance with Care and Maintenance Instructions. V. CARE AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS GENERAL PRODUCT LIFE EXPECTANCY The reliability and service life of this PFD depends greatly upon how it is used and cared for. Avoid storing PFD in direct sunlight. Sunlight contains ultraviolet radiation that weakens synthetic materials. Prolonged exposures to high temperatures and high humidity may shorten service life of this PFD. While it is known that these elements degrade the materials, every use environment is unique so there is no sure way to estimate how long the PFD will last. It is for this reason that you must follow the care and cleaning instructions and perform the maintenance and service checks. This will assure that the PFD remains functional and will maximize the useful life of this PFD. Failure to follow these instructions rigorously could result in a non-functioning PFD causing injury or death. INSPECTION User's Inspection -The users should perform the following checks before each season, or before a long journey, or before each outing, as recommended below: 1. Physical Inspection of Cover and Straps -Examine outer shell fabric, seams, webbing attachments, buckles, slides, etc. Fabric fading can indicate a loss of strength. Check for strength by pulling seams and attachments snugly. If device shows any signs of damage, return to a certified Repair Facility or replace the entire device. This inspection should be performed each outing. 2. Leak Test -This test should be performed every two months and at the start of each season. Inflate buoyancy chamber using the oral inflation valve and leave to rest for 16 hours. When buoyancy chamber remains firm and full of air there is 11 no leakage and chamber is in operational condition. If the chamber deflates, immediately bring to a Stearns certified Repair Facility for repair. The device is no longer in operational condition. 3. Automatic Inflation System – This test should be performed during years when the PFD is not inspected by a certified repair facility. With device packed as normal, immerse the device into a tub of water and see if it inflates. DRY, REARM and REPACK as shown on back cover of pamphlet. 4. Function Test of Oral Valve -Remove the dust protection cap. With the PFD inflated, test the valve by pushing it down using the tab provided on the cap (refer to page 9). The valve should depress easily, and when released it should automatically return to the closed position and reseal. REARMING OF INFLATOR MECHANISM Use Replacement Kit No. 0920 and 0923. See Rearming Instructions on back cover for details. CARE AND CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS Drying – If the device is wet, place on a coat hanger to allow thorough drying. Do not place in direct sunlight to dry. Do not use any heat source or place on radiator. Cleaning – Damp wipe only with mild detergent recommended for synthetic fabrics. Remove grease and oil immediately. After every use, remove pill (prior to rinsing) and rinse well with fresh water. Read instructions provided on the device. • DO NOT MACHINE WASH • DO NOT MACHINE DRY • DO NOT DRY CLEAN • DO NOT USE SOLVENT BASED CLEANERS • DO NOT BLEACH STORAGE • STORE YOUR PILLS (WATER SENSING ELEMENTS) IN A VENTILATED PACKAGE, DO NOT STORE IN A SEALED CONTAINER. • STORE IN CLEAN, COOL, DRY AREA. 12 • DO NOT STORE PILLS (WATER SENSING ELEMENTS) IN HIGH HUMIDITY OR HIGH TEMPERATURES (OVER 100°F) FOR AN EXTENDED TIME. • DO NOT STORE PILLS (WATER SENSING ELEMENTS) FOR MORE THAN 18 MONTHS BEFORE USE. REPAIR If you have any question about the condition or integrity of this product call 1-800-STEARNS (1-800-783-2767). A damaged device must be discarded.

VI. WHY ARE PFDS REQUIRED SAFETY EQUIPMENT? Drownings are the leading cause of fatalities involving recreational boating. A PFD provides flotation to help keep your head above water, help you to stay face up in the water, and increase your chances for survival and rescue. Most adults only need an extra 7 to 12 pounds (31 to 53 Newtons) of flotation to keep their heads above water. The proper size PFD will properly support the weight of the wearer. Since this inflatable PFD does not have inherent buoyancy, it provides flotation only when inflated. Familiarize yourself with the use of this PFD so that you will know what to do in an emergency. 13 VII. HOW AND WHY TO TEST YOUR PFD? Inflate your PFD and try it out in the water to: • Make sure it floats you: Comfortably (When worn properly) Adequately for expected wave conditions (Body shapes/densities affect performance) • Make sure it works: A flow of bubbles should not appear (See...
