HOW AND WHY TO TEST YOUR PFD
Inflate your Inflatable Vest with LIFT TM and try it out in the water to:
· Make sure it floats you:
• Comfortably (when worn properly)
• Adequately for expected wave conditions (body shapes/
densities affect performance)
· Make sure it works:
• A flow of bubbles should not appear (see CARE AND
MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS for leak tests p. 28). It should
inflate quick and easily.
· Learn how it works by:
• Activating the CO
