Maintenance
Make sure you put the dust cap on properly.
Soak the regulator in a tray of fresh water.
DANGER: If you use a hosepipe, do not use a pressure jet to clean the 2nd stage. The pressure of the jet could damage the membrane and/or the internal valve.
Wipe the regulator dry.
Do not expose your regulator to full sunlight for a lengthy period.
Storage
Store your regulator in a clean environment away from light and at a moderate temperature.
Do not store it near a source of heat or in a room that may contain chemical vapours like chlorine, ozone, etc. (e.g. a swimming pool machine room).
Never store the regulator on top of a cylinder/tank
DANGER: Never use solvents or hydrocarbon-based products to clean or lubricate your regulator. Never use spray cans.
Servicing and inspections
Aqualung advises you to service your regulator every two years and to make a visual inspection at least once a year.
These two inspections should be carried out by a Aqualung approved workshop
Your regulator should be serviced more frequently depending on the number of dives and conditions of use.
Tips for storage and maintenance
Storage tips
It is important to store diving equipment away from sources that produce ozone. Keep your equipment in a dry place away from heat and direct sunlight.
