•Cressi-Sub recommends complete regulator maintenance at least once a year,
or more frequently in the case of particularly intense use.

annual equipment maintenance kit.
•The special tools for maintenance of this equipment are illustrated in a section
of this document on page 8.
•Metal parts must be washed with hot water and neutral detergent and rinsed

with diluted acid solutions, always followed by long and thorough rinsing
under running water.

procedure reduces to a minimum the risk of damage during assembly.
