WARNING:

This is NOT a life jacket: It does not guarantee a head up position of the

wearer at the surface. It is not designed to provide face-up flotation in all situations;

therefore it does not meet U.S. Coast Guard regulations for a life preserver or personal

flotation device (PFD). If you become unconscious in the water without a buddy present

to immediately give assistance, you may suffer serious injury or death from drowning.

This BC is designed for use with compressed air or Nitrox/EAN (enriched air nitrox) mixtures not

exceeding 40% oxygen. Any use of gas mixtures with increased oxygen content or the addition

of helium or other substances may cause corrosion, deterioration and/or premature aging of the

BC leading to component failure of the metal and rubber parts. The component failures could

lead to a loss of buoyancy control and/or pressure integrity of the BC resulting in injury or death.

Non-standard breathing mixtures may also present a risk of fire or explosion. The use of Nitrox/

EAN requires additional training. Failure to observe this warning may result in injury or death.

Use only nitrogen/oxygen mixtures containing no more than 40% oxygen.
