Operating Instructions
How to Use:
- Hold the whistle firmly between your lips, ensuring a tight seal around the mouthpiece.
- Take a deep breath and blow forcefully into the whistle. The sound is generated by the internal design, not by a pea, allowing it to function wet or dry.
- For maximum sound projection, aim the whistle in the direction you wish the sound to travel.
Important Considerations:
- Due to its high decibel output, avoid blowing the whistle directly into another person's ear or in confined spaces to prevent hearing damage.
- Practice using the whistle in a safe, open environment to understand its sound projection and your lung capacity requirements.
- The whistle's waterproof design ensures functionality even when submerged, making it suitable for marine and water-based activities.

Maintenance
Cleaning:
To clean the whistle, rinse it with fresh water after use, especially if exposed to saltwater, dirt, or debris. Allow it to air dry completely before storage.
Storage:
Store the whistle in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Avoid storing it with sharp objects that could scratch or damage the plastic.
Troubleshooting
No Sound or Weak Sound:
- Check Airflow: Ensure your lips form a tight seal around the mouthpiece and you are blowing with sufficient force.
- Obstruction: Inspect the whistle's internal chambers for any debris or foreign objects that might be blocking airflow. Rinse thoroughly with water if an obstruction is suspected.
- Water Inside: If used underwater or in wet conditions, a small amount of water might temporarily affect the sound. Blow forcefully to clear any residual water.
