Transcription of the video text

In this video, we'll explain how to inspect your product at least once a year.

Beforehand, make sure you have the instruction manual.

Start off by detaching the two snap buttons at the bottom of the T-shirt to separate the inflatable bladder from the T-shirt, then open the back slot to remove the bladder, taking the abdominal floaters out through the t-shirt's upper openings.

Visually inspect the T-shirt, checking the Integrity of structural stitches. If they are cracked, replace just the T-shirt part.

Visually inspect the ladder, checking there aren't any cuts, scratches or abrasions. Do this on both faces. If there are any defects, replace the bladder equipped with the inflator then check the operability and non-expiration of the inflator's three elements.

  • On the CO2 capsule, make sure there is no corrosion, that the seal is intact then check the manufacture date written using the format month year (February 2023) and add 5 years to know the expiration date
  • On the soluble detector, make sure the indicator is green and check the expiration date directly mentioned on the element using the format month year
  • Finally on the inflator, the manufacture date is engraved on one of the two faces represented by two dials pointing to the month and year. Add 5 years to know the expiration date.

If the condition aren't fulfilled on one of the three elements, proceed depending on the case to replace the recharge or both the inflator and bladder.

You have now finished your product's inspection. All that's left is to put the bladder back into the T-shirt. To do so, insert the abdominal floaters in the T-shirt slots, use the openings at the bottom of the T-shirt to get the bladder and guide it in the slot. Put the inflator's soluble detector through the elastic loop inside the slot. Same thing on both sides. Don't forget to push the snap buttons shut. Then turn the T-shirt around, fold the bladder into a point shape, insert it into the slot and close the back slot.

Your product is ready for the new season.
