6. Due to the possibility of fire and exposure to extreme heat, the SEA-4500
must be stored either completely full or completely empty. If the system is
exposed to fire while partially filled, the cylinder wall may rupture before the
internal pressure becomes great enough to burst the safety plug assembly. For
this reason, Aqua Lung recommends that the cylinder be completely emptied
and the valves kept shut to prevent the entrance of moisture before storing the
system for an indefinite period.
WARNING:
may prevent the safety plug assembly from functioning properly
in the event of fire or exposure to extreme heat. This may cause
the cylinder to rupture or explode, possibly resulting in severe
injury or death.
7. Store the SEA-4500 completely dry, in a clean equipment box or sealed inside
a plastic bag. When possible, avoid storing it where it may be exposed to extreme
heat or an electric motor, which produces ozone. Prolonged exposure to extreme
heat, ozone, chlorine and ultraviolet rays can cause premature degradation of
rubber parts and components and must be prevented.
8. When transporting the SEA-4500, take the necessary precautions to ensure
that it is surrounded by a protective cushion to prevent undue shock or impact.
9. Do not use any type of solvent or petroleum based substances to clean or
lubricate any part of the regulator. Do not expose the regulator to aerosol spray,
as some aerosol propellants attack or degrade rubber and plastic.
DO NOT store the SEA-4500 partially filled. Doing so
