Inflation
WARNING
Do not use compressors or inflation
tools other than those provided by the
manufacturer. Use only cold air, and take
care to avoid excessive pressure.
Ambient temperature affects internal
pressure. At lower temperatures the
product can lose pressure; if necessary it
can be inflated more to compensate for
this.
On the other hand, when subject to
higher temperatures, the product tends
to expand; deflate it slightly to avoid any
damage that could result from excessive
pressure.
Before you start inflating, make sure you
are in an open area and that there are no
rocks or other sharp objects in the area
when you lay out your product.
Identify the valves on your product and
become familiar with them, ensuring
that they are fully functional.
Inflate each air chamber until reaching
the pressure indicated in the inflation
plates (Fig. 1) that surround each valve.
During the inflation, check the pressure
by observing the gauge supplied with the
pump.

Deflation
WARNING
Make sure that you have removed the
accessories and equipment from the
product before you begin inflating.
Before you open the valves, clean and
dry the surrounding area to prevent
water or particles from getting into the
air chambers. Always keep your eyes and
face away from the jet of air.
To deflate the product, you need to open
the valves on the air chambers, working
in reverse order from the inflation
sequence. Once open, simply roll up the
product like a sleeping bag, starting from
the bow, forcing the remaining air out.
For some models, you can also use the
pump if it features a suction function.
Do not use any tools other than those
provided by the manufacturer.
Once all the air has been removed, close
the valves again.
