GENERAL PRECAUTIONS & WARNINGS
This product may be supplied with () aluminum cylinders. These cylinders
DO have a low magnetic signature. They are NOT non-magnetic.
Before using this vest, you must have successfully received training and certifi-
cation in the technique of SCUBA diving from a recognized certification agen-
cy (or any Military or government operated diving school). Use of this equip-
ment by a person who is not certified by a recognized agency shall render all
warranties, express or implied, null and void.
Use of SCUBA equipment by uncertified or untrained persons is danger-
ous and can result in serious injury or death.
In an emergency such as an out of air situation or uncontrolled rapid descent, it
is important to remove and jettison weight immediately.
In the event of an uncontrolled, rapid ascent, it is important to immediately begin
venting air from the CSAV while continuously exhaling. Continue venting air to
slow your ascent rate if neutral buoyancy cannot be reestablished.
Your CSAV is not a lift bag. DO NOT rely on it to bring heavy objects to the
surface. Doing so may permanently damage the vest, and could result in
serious injury or death.
Lubricating of parts is to be performed by a trained technician using approved
lubricants only.
Do not apply any type of aerosol spray to the vest. Doing so may damage certain
plastic components, including important valve connections.
Repair, service, or disassembly is to be performed by a trained technician only.
Unauthorized service will render the warranty null and void.
