- Do not over-inflate the float. Over-inflation can cause damage and reduce product lifespan.
- Do not use in strong currents, high winds, or open ocean conditions.
- Always check the float for leaks or damage before each use.

Setup
Follow these steps to properly set up your Solstice Super Chill Inflatable Tube Float:
- Unpack and Unfold: Carefully remove the float from its packaging. Unfold the float on a clean, flat surface, free from sharp objects or debris.
- Locate Valves: Identify all Boston valves on the float. The main tube, backrests, and cooler compartment each have separate inflation valves.
- Inflation: Use a suitable air pump (not included) to inflate the float. Begin with the largest main chamber, then proceed to the backrests and the cooler compartment. Inflate until the sections are firm to the touch but not rigid. Do not over-inflate. The Boston valve allows for quick inflation and deflation.
- Secure Valves: Once inflated, ensure all valve caps are securely closed and flush with the surface of the float to prevent air leakage.
- Pre-Use Check: Before entering the water, visually inspect the entire float for any signs of damage or air leaks.
Operating Instructions
The Solstice Super Chill float is designed for comfortable and enjoyable water activities. Follow these guidelines for optimal use:
- Entry and Exit: Use the heavy-duty grab handles to assist with safely entering and exiting the float.
- Seating: Position yourself comfortably in the mesh bottom seats, utilizing the integrated backrests for support. The mesh design allows water to flow through, providing a cooling effect.
- Beverage and Storage: Place beverages in the strategically located cupholders. The integrated ice chest in the center can be used to keep drinks and snacks cool.
- Maneuvering: The perimeter grab rope can be used for holding on, tying up with other floats, or assisting with steering in calm waters.
- Capacity: This float is designed for two persons. Do not exceed the recommended occupancy or weight limit.
Maintenance
Proper maintenance will extend the life of your inflatable float:
- Cleaning: After each use, rinse the float thoroughly with fresh water to remove chlorine, salt, sand, and other debris.
- Drying: Ensure the float is completely dry before deflating and storing. Drying prevents mildew and material degradation.
- Deflation: Open all Boston valves to allow air to escape. Deflation is quick and straightforward. Gently press out any remaining air.
- Storage: Fold the dry, deflated float neatly and store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Avoid storing near sharp objects or chemicals.
- Patch Kit: A patch kit is included for minor repairs. Refer to the patch kit instructions for proper application in case of punctures.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your Solstice Super Chill float, consider the following:
- Float Loses Air:
- Check all Boston valves to ensure they are fully closed and sealed.
- Inspect the float surface for punctures or tears. Use the included patch kit for minor repairs.
- Ensure the float was not over-inflated, which can stress seams.
- Difficulty Inflating/Deflating:
- Ensure the air pump nozzle is correctly inserted into the valve.
- Check valves for any obstructions or debris.
- Instability on Water:
- Verify that all chambers are adequately inflated to their recommended firmness.
- Ensure the weight distribution of occupants is balanced.
- Do not exceed the maximum weight capacity.
