4. DIVING WITH THE REGULATOR

If the regulator is used as an alternative air source, it is recommended that you

fit a mouthpiece cover to prevent the entry of any foreign bodies while the VAS

is in “-“ position. , for the Mikron Regulator, screwed completely the VAK (clock-

wise).

While underwater the regulator may commence to free-flow. If this happens

turn the regulator so that the mouthpiece points downward.

When you place the regulator in your mouth put the VAS in position “+” to

obtain maximum breathing comfort. For the Mikron Regulator, unscrewed com-

pletely the VAK (counter-clockwise).

4.1. COLD WATER DIVING :

In order to reduce the risks of regulator freezing when diving in cold water

(below 50°F or 10°C), consider at least the following recommendations and

respect your dive training program procedure :

1. Protect your regulator from any accidental entrance of water into the first

or second stages.

2. Protect your equipment from cold before the dive. More precisely, keep your

regulator and all its accessories in a warm dry place.

3. Carry out all pre-dive checks of your equipment in a warm dry place, before

even going to the dive site.

4. Avoid breathing through the regulator or pressing the purge button in very

cold air before entering the water.

5. Avoid removing the regulator from your mouth during the dive, or when on

the surface. This will prevent cold water from entering the regulator second

stage.

6. As far as is possible, avoid excessive effort during the dive.

7. Have your dive store check that the air in your cylinder meets EN 12021

and is is dry.
