Routine care advice

1/ Rinse your buoyancy compensator thoroughly with clean water. Pay particular attention to the drains and the inflater. 2/ Empty any water that may be contained in the buoyancy compensator by pulling the lower drain tab. Do not store water in the inflatable bladder. 3/ Dry your buoyancy compensator on a wide hanger, out of the sun. Inspect your buoyancy compensator once a year and look for any signs of wear. Inflate the inflatable chamber by mouth, then wait 12 hours to see if it deflates.

Servicing buoyancy compensators

Your buoyancy compensator must be inspected and serviced by a certified Mares centre at least every two years, and more often if you are a frequent diver. After Sales Service: Please visit our website.
