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

• Flush the Bladder: Fill the bladder with clean water, swish it around, and drain completely. Inflate and deflate the bladder a few times to ensure thorough flushing of any remaining contaminants.

• Inspect the Rip Cord System: Check the rip cord system for smooth operation. Make sure the rip cord is free of any obstructions and in good condition. Periodically test it to ensure it deploys properly.

• Check for Leaks: Inflate the BCD fully and listen for any air leaks. Inspect the bladder, inflator valve, dump valves, and rip cord system for damage. Replace any worn or damaged parts immediately.

• Lubricate Valves: Apply silicone-based lubricant to the inflator and dump valve mechanisms to ensure smooth operation. Avoid petroleum-based lubricants as they can degrade rubber components.

• Dry and Store Properly: After rinsing, hang the BCD in a shaded, well-ventilated area to dry completely. Ensure it is fully dry to prevent mold or mildew growth. Avoid storing it in direct sunlight or high heat.

• Store with Care: Store the BCD partially inflated in a cool, dry place to maintain its shape. Avoid tightly folding or compressing the BCD. Ensure that the rip cord system is not pinched or obstructed during storage.

• Annual Service: Have the BCD and rip cord system serviced annually by a certified technician to ensure all components are functioning optimally and to address any potential issues before they affect your safety.
