INFLATING THE BOAT
Activate all valves in inflating position
Fix the hose base in the inflator inflating orifice
To inflate your boat properly, the inflator should be
correctly placed on the ground.
The boat inflates rapidly if the inflator is used
smoothly and without haste.
ATTENTION
DO NOT USE A COMPRESSOR OR COMPRESSED AIR CYLINDER
NEVER OVER INFLATE THE BUOYANCY MECHANISM OR THE KEEL:
BURSTING HAZARD.
You can us the electrical air pump ACCESS (ask your Dealer).
1-INFLATING THE BUOYANCY MECHANISM
• Place the adapter corresponding to the diameter of the semi-built in valve at the inflator pipe
nozzle.
• Inflate the buoyancy mechanism, balancing the pressure between the different compartments
until the partitions (a) are no longer visible (pressure = 240 mb)
NEVER PRESSURISE A

2-INFLATING THE KEEL
• Once the floor is assembled, start inflation (pressure = 240 mb, see "PRESSURE" section)
Inflating is complete: fit the inflation valve caps tight.
NOTE:
A slight air leak is normal before the valve cap is screwed on
ONLY THE VALVE CAPS CAN ENSURE FINAL AIR TIGHTNESS.
