WARNING
Excessive weights may tire the diver and
be responsible for a series of incidents
including serious ones.
Given the importance of this phenomenon, the
following warning label is sewn into the dry suit:

ATTENTION
Due to the effect of pressure, the
thickness of the dry suit, and the ballast
used, the buoyancy force of the dry suit
may vary and expose the diver to potential
risks. Read the instruction manual
carefully and consult a professional diving
instructor before using this product.
EffECTS Of PRESSURE
With the increase in pressure due to descent
to various depths, the thickness of the dry suit
will decrease, resulting in a decrease of the
effect of the buoyancy force. Furthermore, due
to the reduction in the thickness, heat loss
increases, limiting the diver's exposure time at
that specific depth.
The selection and use of a dry suit of the
appropriate thickness will limit the above
mentioned negative effects. Moreover, correct
ballast weight (correct quantity of weights in
relation to the dry suit used) will avoid tiring the
diver and facilitate his movements on the sea
bottom and during ascent.

ATTENTION
The dry suit is not considered a flotation
device and does not guarantee a position
with your face out of the water!
The dry suit must always be transported with
care in bags and backpacks specially designed
to contain diving equipment and avoiding
contact with heavy or sharp components.
Familiarization with your diving equipment
in general and with the dry suit in particular
is essential in order to avoid unpleasant
problems or discomfort during use. From the
first time you wear your dry suit it is important
to understand all its features in order to put it
on and use it safely. The preliminary opening
of the zippers will further facilitate this phase
and the identification of the front from the back
will also make it easier to dress in the dry suit
without any complication.
Always check that the zippers are working
easily. If they appear not to be functioning
properly, we advise postponing the dive. It
is important that you dress under perfectly
safe conditions and where your balance is
not compromised. Put your dry suit on only in
protected areas and where it is possible to sit
down to further facilitate the operation.
We advise putting on your dry suit away from
any sources of potential danger and while
avoiding excessive exposure to the sun. Asking
more expert divers about their experiences
prior to diving will help you avoid potential risks
from overheating, which in some periods of the
year or in some locations may potentially cause
hyperthermia.
Always have your diving companion assist
you. It's the simplest and safest way to dress.
Always remember that correct choice of size
will prevent problems that may only worsen
during the dressing phase.
The dry suit must always be the first component
you put on and the last you take off. This will
assist the diver reduce potential problems
related to normal diving activities.
Never underestimate the value of comfort and
safety that the dry suit provides during diving.
The correct selection of suit is a fundamental
step towards successful and enjoyable diving.
