• Rinse After Each Dive: Rinse the entire BCD with fresh water after every dive, focusing on the bladder, inflator, and rip cord system. This helps remove salt, chlorine, and debris.

• Flush the Bladder: Fill the rear bladder with fresh water through the inflator, swish it around, and drain it completely. Inflate and deflate the bladder a few times to ensure thorough rinsing.

• Inspect the Rip Cord System: Check the rip cord system for smooth operation. Ensure it is free of debris and properly positioned. Test it periodically to make sure it works as intended.

• Check for Leaks: Inflate the BCD fully and listen for air leaks. If there are any leaks, inspect the bladder, inflator valve, and dump valves for potential damage and replace any worn components.

• Lubricate Valves: Apply silicone-based lubricant to the inflator and dump valve mechanisms to maintain smooth operation. Avoid petroleum-based lubricants, which can damage rubber components.

• Dry Completely: Hang the BCD in a cool, shaded, and well-ventilated area to dry completely after rinsing. Make sure the bladder and all parts are fully dry to prevent mold and mildew buildup.

• Store Properly: Store the BCD partially inflated to maintain its shape. Keep it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, excessive heat, or moisture. Avoid folding it tightly.

• Annual Inspection: Have the BCD, rip cord system, and inflator serviced annually by a certified technician to ensure everything is functioning optimally and safely.
