1. The board can be inated either with our hand pump or an electric pump. The electric pump can inate the board to a moderate pressure and save
a lot of time with about 90% of the required air volume. You will need to use your hand pump to inate the chambers to the correct pressure.
2. Do not use an air compressor. Damage to your board caused by over ination from an air compressor is notcovered by your warranty.
3. After 2 or 3 days there may be a small decrease of pressure due to temperature change. If so, add a few pumps of air.
4. Before undertaking a long paddle, inate the board for a full 24 hours to be sure the board is airtight. If you are seeing a consistent decrease in air
pressure, follow the instructions for leak detection in the board repair sectionof this manual.
5. Do not over-inate the board. A max pressure of 12 PSI is adequate. The easiest gauge of a good workingpressure is to have the chambers inated
to a rm pressure when you press on them.
6. Do not pump to a high pressure and let the board sit out in the sun. If the board is going to be in a warm environment, slightly under-inate the
board and allow the heat from the sun to increase the internal pressure.When paddling, the colder temperature of the water may cause a slight loss
in chamber pressure. It is a goodidea to carry a pump with you so that you can add some air to the chambers if necessary.
Airwheel has chosen PVC to provide superior protection from ultraviolet light. However, to ensure extra years of exibility and bright colors, avoid storing
the board where it will be exposed to weather or in direct sunlight.
Please review the following list for storage and board care tips.
1. Before storing, hose o the board and let it dry completely to prevent mildew buildup.
2. Do not use harsh chemicals for cleaning. Most dirt can be removed with a mild soap and fresh water.
3. You may store the board inated or deated.if you deate the board, we recommend that you store it in theprotective bag that came with the board.
4. We do not recommend hanging the board.
5. Do not store in extreme conditions.(i.e. above 150F or below -10F)
6. Store in a clean, dry place.
