General Precautions & Warnings
Before using the Micra Air System (M.A.S.), you must
have successfully received training and certification in
the technique of SCUBA diving from a recognized certifi-
cation agency. (Recognized certification agencies include:
PADI, NAUI, YMCA, SSI, NASDS, BSAC, CMAS, PDIC
and all U.S. Military or U.S. Government Diving Schools.)
Use of this equipment 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 dangerous
and can result in serious injury, or death.
Visual inspection and factory prescribed service for the
M.A.S. must be performed at least once annually by a
factory trained Aqua-Lung Service Technician. Repair,
service, and visual inspection must not be attempted by
persons who are not factory trained and authorized by
Aqua Lung.
DO NOT attempt to overfill the M.A.S. beyond 3,000 psi
at 70°F. Doing so may seriously weaken the cylinder and
cause it to rupture, resulting in serious injury or death.
DO NOT fill or use the M.A.S. if it has been exposed to
extreme heat exceeding 250°F, or open flame. Instead,
discharge the cylinder completely and return it to an
Authorized Aqua Lung Dealer for inspection and possible
hydrostatic testing.
The M.A.S. is designated compatible for use only with
normal, atmospheric, compressed air (21% oxygen and
79% nitrogen by volume). DO NOT attempt to fill with
other gases, including pure oxygen, or air which has been
enriched with oxygen exceeding 21% in content. Failure
to observe this warning may result in serious injury or
death due to fire and explosion, or the serious deteriora-
tion and failure of the equipment.
