    The tank pressure gauge and the parts of this product used to measure the tank pressure should be serviced by an authorized SCUBAPRO UWATEC dealer every second year or after 200 dives (whichever comes first). Aside from that your Smart Z is virtually maintenance free. All you need to do is to rinse it carefully with fresh water after each use and to have the batteries changed when needed.
