INFLATION
Proper inflation is the key to fully enjoying this product. The cover should be taut with few wrinkles. You should
barely sink it when standing on the tube.
Your AIRHEAD inflatable is equipped with one or more of the following valve types:
Speed Safety Valve: Pulls out for fast inflation/deflation, then can be pushed in flush with the tube.
Secure the valve by firmly fastening the bottom portion of the valve into the base. To inflate, open
cap or top portion of the valve. Using the hose from your inflator, inflate through the top opening of
the valve.
Boston Valve: Inflating: Be sure that the Boston Valve is tightly installed by turning the square base
clock-wise. Unscrew the top cap counter-clockwise. Inflate using an AIRHEAD air pump. Deflating:
Remove the entire valve by turning the square base counter-clockwise.
MONITORING & MAINTAINING PROPER INFLATION
To prevent serious damage to seams and I-beams, remove some air or move to a shaded area when exposure to
direct sunlight heats up the tube and causes the air inside to expand. Add some air if exposure to cool air or water
lowers the air pressure inside.
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
Product won't hold air: Make sure that the valve is installed properly by removing and re-installing. If you
suspect that the product was not inflated fully, add some air.
Valve is leaking: Make sure that the valve was screwed into the threads correctly. Valve and cap must be screwed
down tightly.
Bladder does not get firm and/or Nylon Cover is loose: Your air pump probably doesn't produce enough
pressure to completely fill the bladder. Top off your inflatable with an AIRHEAD Double Action Hand Pump or Foot
Pump.
