Mustang Survival MD0450 22 manual Usage Below Freezing, Re-arming Your PFD

Page 14

Usage Below Freezing

When the temperature is below freezing, a fully discharged cylinder may not adequately inflate your Inflatable Vest with LIFTTM Under these conditions use the oral inflator to top-up the Inflatable Vest with LIFTTM

It may be neccessary to manually release the VelcroTM tabs, located at the bottom of the left and right panel covers, for full inflation because oral

inflation may not provide sufficient pressure to open the tabs.

Re-arming Your PFD

NOTE: A valid re-arm kit (MA7218-22) is required for this procedure.

1)Place the Inflatable Vest with LIFTTM on a smooth, flat surface and wipe off any water. Access the inflator by reaching under the cover

and fully expose the inflator for re-arming. Hold the CO2 cylinder through the fabric, using one hand (Fig. 12).
