• ALWAYS use under competent adult supervision.
• Do not leave children unattended while the device is in use.
• Only for use in water where the child is within its depth and under adult supervision.
• Do not over-inflate. Inflate until firm but not hard.

• Keep away from fire and sharp objects.

Setup Instructions

Follow these steps to properly prepare the armbands for use:

1. Unpack: Carefully remove the armbands from their packaging.
2. Locate Valves: Identify the inflation valves on each armband. These are typically small, clear plastic caps.
3. Inflate: Open the valve cap. Using a hand pump or by mouth, inflate each air chamber until the armband is firm but still slightly pliable. Do not over-inflate.

4. Seal Valves: Once inflated, quickly close the valve cap and push it down firmly so it is flush with the armband surface. This prevents air leakage.
5. Check for Leaks: Before first use, submerge the inflated armbands in water and check for any air bubbles, which would indicate a leak. If a leak is found, do not use the product.

Operating Instructions

Proper use of the armbands ensures safety and effectiveness:

1. Placement: With the child out of the water, slide one armband onto each arm, positioning them high on the upper arm.
2. Fit: Ensure the armbands fit snugly but comfortably around the child's arms. They should not be too loose or too tight.

3. Supervision: Always maintain close and constant adult supervision when the child is wearing the armbands in or near water.
4. Water Entry: Guide the child into the water slowly, allowing them to adjust to the buoyancy provided by the armbands.

Maintenance

Proper care will extend the life of your Bestway Armbands:

• Cleaning: After each use, rinse the armbands thoroughly with fresh water to remove chlorine, salt, or dirt.
• Drying: Allow the armbands to air dry completely before deflating and storing. Do not expose to direct sunlight for prolonged periods.
• Storage: Deflate the armbands by opening the valves and gently squeezing out the air. Fold them neatly and store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and sharp objects.
• Inspection: Periodically inspect the armbands for any signs of wear, punctures, or damage. Discontinue use if any damage is found.
