Maintenance
Use of non-factory parts or accessories, or any change to the product
not specifically authorized by Zeagle Systems, Inc., or performed by an
unauthorized repair facility, may cause improper operation, damage, or
leakage of the BC resulting in a loss of buoyancy control or air holding
capability. This could result in injury or death, plus will void your war-
ranty. Replace worn or damaged items with approved, factory supplied
or specified parts ONLY.
The reliability and correct functioning of your equipment
depends on the care it receives.
Post Dive BC Cleaning:
• Rinse the Rapid Diver™ BCD thoroughly with fresh water after each
use.
• Rinse the inside of the bladder by holding the exhaust button on
the inflator system open and allowing fresh water to partially fill the
bladder. “Slosh” the water around to dissolve any salt crystals (salt
crystals can damage the bladder over time). Drain the bladder com-
pletely and repeat.
• Hang the BCD upside down and allow it to dry while partially inflated.
Drain any residual water through the exhaust hose while the BCD is
hanging upside down.
• Store the BCD partially inflated in a cool, dark, dry place.
Inspection and Service Interval
Your Rapid Diver™ BCD (including the Inflator) should be inspected and
maintained by an Authorized Zeagle Dealer at least once a year, and
more often if you dive frequently. This is a required action to keep your
warranty in effect. There is a Service Record in the back of this manual
for the Dealer to record the service performed.
