Please contact an approved VIKING servicing station.
Find your nearest servicing station on

6. STORAGE
We recommend that the lifejacket is stored in a dry
place, possibly suspended on a hanger in a wardrobe.
Unintended inflation may occur. This may be due to a
combination of moisture and vibration. If the annual
service is observed, the risk of this will be reduced.
7. APPLICATIONS AND LIMITATIONS
The lifejacket has been tested in water temperatures
ranging from -1°C to 30°C. At water temperatures below
zero, automatic inflation may be delayed. If so, release
it manually.
Do not ever wear any clothing over the lifejacket. If worn
together with an immersion suit or any special clothing
such as sailors’ wear with buoyancy, the functioning of
the lifejacket may be affected.
