GENERAL:
To maintain the good appearance of your Caribe boat,we recommend washing
it periodically with a mild soap and water and drying it with a soft cloth.
INFLATABLE PARTS:
Some persistant stains can be removed by a stain remover product that should
not contain solvents.
FIBERGLASS PARTS:
In addition to washing with soap and water we recommend protecting
them with a special wax for gel-coat at least twice a year.
AIR VALVES:
Periodically check that there is no dirt or sand that could obstruct a total seal
CONDESATION VALVE:
Periodically check to verify that the condesation valve has the "O" ring
on and that there is no dirt or sand in the threads of the valve.
WARNING:
Use as few cleaning agents as
possible,do not discharge waste
agents into the water.
CAUTION:
Do not cover the boat with a canvas
until completely dry,as this could damage
the fabric of the tubes due to mildew and
water stains.
VALVE:

Put The valve in close position.The valve is in close position when the internal
poppet is out.
a) Caribe valve:
If the poppet is in,just press it.
b) Other valve:
if the poppet is in press and twist it to get it out
PUMP:
The pump has an adapter at the terminal of the hose, insert the hose with the
locking adapter to the valve and turn to lock.
INFLATE:
Inflating sequence: first the rear chambers,then the one at bow.Replace the
cap on the valves.

your finger.

poppet or just by pressi
