GENERAL INFORMATION
WARNING
Ensure that you have fully understood the jacket's function and features and
adjust the straps appropriately before diving. If in doubt, ask your official
SCUBAPRO dealer for help.
WARNING
This BC is not a breathing device.
Never breathe from the BC.
Your BC may contain gas residue, liquid, or contamination that may result in
injury or death if inhaled.
WARNING
Do not use your BC as an assist or "lift bag" for bringing objects to the surface.
These objects may be lost during the ascent, creating a sudden increase in
buoyancy and loss of buoyancy control.

inspection points and tests. Loss of buoyancy control or air holding integrity
could occur, resulting in serious injury or death.
