! WARnInG This manual must be read and understood entirely before using the product. It is advised that you keep this manual in your possession during the entire life of your BC.FAILURE TO READ, UNDERSTAND, AND FOLLOW THE PRECAUTIONS LISTED IN THIS MANUAL COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.

! WARnInG When diving you must follow the rules and apply the skills taught by a recognized scuba diving certification agency. Before taking part in any diving activity, it is mandatory to have successfully completed a scuba diving course covering both theoretical and technical aspects of diving.

! WARnInG This instruction manual does not replace a diving instruction course!

2. CE CERTIFICATIOnAll SCUBAPROBCsdescribed in thismanual haveobtained theCEcertification issuedbya notified body according to European directive 89/686/EEC.

This BC is not a breathing device.Never breathe from the BC.Your BC may contain gas residue, liquid, or contamination that may result in injury or death if inhaled.

! WARnInG In accordance with European standards, our BCs can only be considered certified where all components are present, as per the original SCUBAPRO configuration, including the low pressure hose supplied.Any variation of the original configuration invalidates conformity to European certification standards.

English! WARnInG

Do not attach a L.P. hose to a SCUBA regulator high pressure (HP) port or to an air supply with pressure in excess of 200 psi (13.8 bar). This may result in damage or explosive failure of the Inflation Valve or Low pressure Hose, which could result in injury or death.

! WARnInG Keep sand and other contamination out of the Oral Valve mouthpiece and valve button. Under certain conditions, contamination can cause the valve to not close completely. If this occurs while diving, shake the valve while depressing it several times. If the valve leaks or remains inoperable, terminate the dive. Diving with a leaking Buoyancy Compensator or with valves that do not operate properly may result in a loss of buoyancy control that could result in injury or death.
