Pocket & Equipment Retainers
The Odyssea features one large utility pocket located on the left BC lobe. Two retainers on the right side
are designed to carry a emergency strobe light and snorkel.

Universal Connector Caps

The Odyssea is equipped with two universal connector caps located on the back of each BC lobe. The
caps can be removed to rinse the inside of the bladder.

Auxiliary Air Cylinder

A cylinder is attached to the Odyssea by means of a threaded hand fitting. Air is added to the BC by
opening the cylinder valve (Fig. 2). Required for closed circuit and semi-closed circuit diving.

General Filling Procedures

1. Before attempting to fill the auxiliary air cylinder, ensure that the fill adapter and valve are
completely dry - especially in the area surrounding the valve outlet. Examine the cylinder markings
to verify that it is rated for a fill pressure of 2900 PSI (200 BAR).
2. The BC can be inflated with a 2900 PSI (200 BAR) aluminum cylinder. Examine the cylinder
markings to determine the maximum fill pressure. Aluminum cylinders must have a current visual
inspection and hydrostatic test date IAW local regulations.
WARNING: DO NOT attempt to fill if the cylinder markings indicate that it is assembled with a non
standard cylinder rated for a different fill pressure. Doing so may result in rupture or explosion in
the event of fire or overfilling. Instead, immediately return the cylinder to a factory trained service
technician and do not use under any circumstances.
