7. INSPECTION & SERVICE

It cannot be assumed that a regulator is in good working order on the basis

that it has received little use since it was last serviced. Remember that

prolonged or improper storage can still result in internal corrosion and/or

deterioration of o-ring seals.

You must obtain factory prescribed service for your regulator at least once a

year from an Authorized Aqua Lung Technician, regardless of the amount of

use it has received. Your regulator may require this service more frequently,

depending on the amount of use it receives and the environmental conditions

in which it is used.

If the regulator is used for training purposes, it will require complete

overhaul and factory prescribed service every three to four months.

Chlorinated swimming pool water is an especially damaging environment

for SCUBA equipment, due to high levels of chlorine and pH balancing

chemicals that cause certain components to rapidly deteriorate.

Obtain service for your regulator at least once a year, from a

Authorized Aqua Lung Technician. Your personal safety and the

mechanical integrity of your regulator may depend on it.

WARNING: Do not use any type of solvent or petroleum

based substance to clean or lubricate any part of the regu-

lator. Do not expose any part of the regulator to aerosol

spray, as some aerosol propellants attack or degrade the

rubber and/or plastic components.

5. When the regulator is completely dry, store it in a clean equipment box

or sealed inside a plastic bag. Do not store it where it may be exposed

to extreme heat or an electric motor, which produces Ozone. Prolonged

exposure to extreme heat, ozone, chlorine and ultraviolet rays can cause

premature degradation of the rubber parts and components.

6. Never store the regulator while it is still connected to the cylinder valve.
