Congratulations – and thank you – for choosing Aqua Lung. Your new regula-

tor meets all existing standards for quality and performance and has been des-

igned and manufactured with the greatest care.

Perhaps, more than any other item of equipment that you have bought, the bet-

ter care you take of your regulator, the better it will perform for you. Its perfor-

mance will be guaranteed by regular servicing at an appointed Aqua Lung

Service Centre. Before diving with your new Aqua Lung regulator it is important

that you read this manual in its entirety so that you can familiarise yourself with

its features and the rules for using the regulator before, during and after the

dive so as to retain optimum performance for the years to come.

freezing resistance and the breathing performances can not correspond any

more to the requirements of the EN250.
