STOW APPARATUS

Apparatus should be stored or stowed
ready-for-use, away from direct sunlight
(which will, through time, degrade the
material of the bag).
Apparatus stored in temperatures below
+4ºC must be thoroughly dry prior to
storage and must be kept dry, as ice
forming on or in the apparatus may
degrade performance.
