3.4 - Disassembly of the Regulator
Maintenance and Storage
After diving, turn the cylinder valve clockwise until it is shut off.
Press the manual purge button and let out the air from the hoses
and connections. Disassemble the 1st Stage by unscrewing the
yoke counterclockwise. Cover the sintered filter with your finger
and blow off all water from inside the dust cap. Place the dust
cap on the 1st Stage air outlet and hold it there by tightening the
yoke screw. Make sure that the dust cap O-ring is in place.
Always rinse your Cressi-sub regulator with fresh water after
each dive. Let water flow into 1st and 2nd Stage orifices, but do
not press the manual purge button to keep water from flowing
into the hoses and, therefore, into the 1st Stage.
Allow the regulator to dry prior to storage. Make sure the hoses
are stored in a proper way to avoid acute folds.
Cressi-sub regulators have to be serviced on a yearly basis or
more often according to use.
Warning: Regulators should be serviced by Cressi-sub
certified repair technicians or at a Cressi-sub authorized repair
centers using only original spare parts. Non-certified techni-
cians can jeopardize the diver's life. Cressi-sub shall not be
held liable for maintenance or adjustments made by not duly
authorized or trained staff.
If the regulator is used by more than one person, it is advisable
to disinfect it for 2 to 3 minutes in a 2% Stereamine G water solu-
tion or other similar pharmacy products.
All regulators are in compliance with UNI EN 250:2000 and
therefore, they bear the CE mark followed by the year of manu-
facturing and the certifying body identification number (0474).
