Inflatable Pfds; Approval Conditions And Carriage Regulations - Mustang Survival MD3071 Instructions D'emploi

InFLAtABLe PFDs

Inflatable PfDs are special devices in that the flotation of the wearer
is not derived from inherently buoyant materials. In order for them
to do their job, you, the wearer, must do yours! This means you have
the responsibility to ensure you are familiar with the operation and
maintenance requirements of your inflatable PfD! You must also
be aware of the limitations of the device and know that it is not
approved under the Small Vessel Regulations for certain boating
activities.
