Suit Exhaust valve use: The automatic adjustable exhaust valve is designed to vent excess air form the suit by simply positioning yourself underwater so that the valve is in the high position. The amount of air pressure the valve will retain inside the suit is adjustable. Rotating the valve flange clockwise will increase the air held inside the suit, rotating the flange counter clockwise will cause the suit to retain less air. -
