Your new regulator has been designed to provide you with a life time of pleasure as a POSEIDON diver. Our objective is that the equipment you use should not be noticeable, instead it should be at one with the experience and give you total freedom to achieve what every diver dreams about, the ultimate dive.

JETSTREAM USER MANUAL Jetstream POSEIDON JETSTREAM MK3 (ART. NR 0100-005 ) The first thing you should do, when you’ve bought a new Jetstream Mk3 regulator, is to check and make sure that all parts are included in the package. Save all reciepts, as you will need those for any future warranty claim.
JETSTREAM USER MANUAL POSEIDON JETSTREAM CLASSIC (ART. NR 3960) Poseidon discontinued the classic Jetstream regulator in 2010, when Jetstream Mk3 was introduced. To high light any differences between the two models, we’ve included the classic model in this user guide.

JETSTREAM USER MANUAL may be increased by conditions such as cold water, poor visibility, hard work, and increased depth. Always try to exercise prudent judgement when determining whether or not to dive. Never dive when tired or in poor health. Diving deeper than 50m (164 ft) using gasses other than air is more demanding on the equipment.
Poseidon equipment. • The Poseidon Low pressure hoses are equipped with an inspection hole, allowing you to verify that the hose and connection are properly assembled. Before each use, verify that you can see the rubber hose in the inspection hole.
We recommend that maintenance service should be performed about once every 100 dives or biannual, whatever comes first. Maintenance service should be performed by a service technician that is certified to service Poseidon equipment and only Poseidon original parts should be used.
JETSTREAM USER MANUAL Assembly Before you assemble your Jetstream regulator, please pay attention to the following: • The first stage on a Jetstream Classic has four (4) low pressure ports and two (2) high pressure ports. These different types of ports are marked with R/LP for the low pressure ports and HP for the high pressure ports.
JETSTREAM USER MANUAL IMPORTANT! Inspect the o-ring, and make sure it is absolutely free from particles and/or grease. Do not touch the o-ring. Grease and particles can cause a fire. MOUNTING THE REGULATOR ON A TANK The procedure below only describes the way you mount the regulator and it does not replace all the steps you’ve learnt during your dive training.
JETSTREAM USER MANUAL During a Dive What is most distinctive about the Jetstream is that they are easy to use – there aren’t any valves or knobs to change the flow of air, breathing resistance, etc., only a switch that makes freeflowing more difficult when jumping in to the water. You can leave the function and performance of the regulator in our hands and concentrate on what you want to do - dive.
If you suspect water has entered the first stage we recommend that you let a service technician, certified to service/repair Poseidon equipment, disassemble your first stage to dry and clean it. • The regulator should be rinsed in fresh water after every dive so as to avoid salt crystal formation around the functional parts.
Page 19
After every dive the equipment should be cleaned according to the instructions in ”After diving.” The regulator does not have to be lubricated beyond what is done by Poseidon. It is how ever recommended that you regularly lubricate the o-rings located on the low- and high pressure hoses and the first stage DIN connection.
• Interstage pressure (IP) and safety valve opening pressure is preset by Poseidon and readjustment is prohibited. Readjustment of IP will never boost performance. • The use of accessories which have not been recommended can seriously impair the function of your equipment.
Thus Poseidon has created a working infrastructure for warranty case handling, If you have a warranty claim on a Poseidon product, please contact the dive shop where you purchased your product. If this isn’t possible, contact the Poseidon representative in the country/market where you reside.
