PICTOGRAM EXPLANATION
RECYCLING SCRAP
Put your wetsuit in the recycling bin when it shows one or more following
characteristics:
- Neoprene lost 30% of the initial thickness
- Cuffs tore off
- Neoprene delaminating
BEFORE DIVING
Check the wetsuit carefully and ensure the zipper works.
DONNING
CAUTION
Avoid sharp objects: rings, earrings, watch, fingernails, … when donning
suits.
Turn the top half of the wetsuit inside out (to the waist) this will
facilitate pulling the suit over the feet and legs. If the wetsuit has ankle
and wrist cuffs, always turn them out to ease putting on the suit and to avoid
damaging the neoprene. Once the wetsuit fits snugly then do up the zipper.
CAUTION
Check the wetsuit thermal classification and ensure that it corresponds to
your diving needs. Depending on the dive duration, you may need an
undergarment which will provide extra warmth and protection.
In all cases, if you are cold, abridge your dive and resurface by respecting the usual safety instructions.
An inappropriate wetsuit may result in hypothermia or hyperthermia. Correct training is therefore required to understand the correct use of your equipment and requirements.
The hydrostatic pressure acting on the wetsuit decreases its thickness. Thermal protection and wetsuit buoyancy decrease with the depth.
USAGE ADVICE
During your dive, protect your wetsuit from abrasive contacts: such as rocks,
wreckages, boat ladders, etc… Ensure that your other equipment does not damage
it either; knives, weight belts, etc…
TO TAKE OFF YOUR WETSUIT
Follow the instructions on how to put on your wetsuit but in reverse make sure
you don’t damage the neoprene or the zipper.
SERVICING
Rinse your wetsuit with fresh, cold water after each dive. Then dry and store
it on a hanger in a dry shady and ventilated location. You must rinse and dry
the zippers after each dive.
CAUTION
Do not put your wetsuit in a washing machine or a dryer. Do not use any
chemical or detergent products that may damage the wetsuit’s neoprene.
MAINTENANCE
AQUA LUNG recommends to soap the wetsuit periodically and to rinse it with fresh and tepid water at a maximum temperature of 30°C ± 5°C. You can also carry out bacteriological cleaning by using specific shampoos recommended by AQUA LUNG.
STORAGE
Never store the wetsuit near an electric motor or heat source which produces
ozone. It is recommended to flat store the wetsuit or to hang on an adapted
hanger. To avoid any neoprene deformation, do not store anything on the
wetsuit.
CAUTION
A prolonged exposure to heat, ozone, chlorine or UV rays causes neoprene
decomposition.

material fault recognised as such by AQUA LUNG.
