3.2 UNDERSTANDING YOUR VALVES
Advanced Elements PackLite
The following notes and figures will have details on how to operate the valves.
TO INFLATE: The valve's plunger stem should be in the up/outward position flush with the
valve threading.
TO DEFLATE: The valve's plunger stem should be set in the down/inward position recessed in
the valve threading.
In order to switch the valve from inflate to deflate or vice-versa, simply use your finger to
press the valve stem down/inward and rotate it a ¼ turn to either lock it down for deflate, or
unlock it (stem will spring up) for inflate.
How the spring valve works
When the valve is in the inflate (up/outward) position, the air being pumped in pushes the
spring-loaded plunger open, allowing air to enter the air chamber, but not letting it escape.
When the valves is in the deflate (down/inward) position, the spring loaded plunger is wide
open allowing the air to come rushing out of the air chamber. If the valve is in the inflate
position, the valve's plunger stem will be flush with the rim of the valve. If the valve is in the
deflate position, the valve's plunger stem will be inside, or lower than the rim of the valve. To
change the valve from the inflate position to the deflate position, simply use your finger to press
the valve plunger stem down/inward, and give it a ¼ turn. This will lock the plunger open
