• Rinse After Each Dive: Rinse the entire BCD thoroughly with fresh water after every dive to remove salt, chlorine, and debris. Pay particular attention to the bladder, inflator, and rip cord system. Inflate and deflate the bladder while rinsing to ensure internal areas are cleaned as well.

• Flush the Bladder: Fill the bladder with clean water through the inflator, swish it around, and then drain completely. Inflate and deflate the bladder a few times to thoroughly flush out any remaining debris.

• Inspect the Rip Cord System: Ensure the rip cord system is operating smoothly. Check for any obstructions or damage. Test it periodically to ensure it deploys correctly and is in good working order.

• Check for Leaks: Fully inflate the BCD and listen for air leaks. Inspect the bladder, dump valves, and inflator for any potential leaks or damage. Address any issues immediately by replacing damaged components.

• Lubricate Valves: Apply silicone-based lubricant to the inflator and dump valve mechanisms to keep them functioning smoothly. Avoid petroleum-based lubricants as they can damage rubber components.

• Dry and Store Properly: After rinsing, hang the BCD in a shaded, well-ventilated area to dry completely. Ensure all components, including the bladder, are fully dry to prevent mold or mildew buildup. Avoid storing the BCD in direct sunlight or excessive heat.

• Store with Care: Store the BCD partially inflated to maintain its shape, especially the rip cord system. Keep it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Avoid storing it tightly folded.

• Annual Service: Have the BCD, rip cord system, and inflator professionally serviced annually by a certified technician to ensure that all components are functioning optimally and safely.
