1.0 Important Warnings

Read this manual carefully before diving with the

TravelPac/VoyagerPac so that you thoroughly under-

stand this user manual and all other warnings that

accompany the product. Retain this manual for as

long as you own your BC. If you do not understand

any part of this manual, contact Dive Rite at (386)

752-1087 or Support@DiveRite.com.

Make sure you fully understand this BC’s features

and function, and adjust the straps correctly before

diving. If in doubt, ask your authorized Dive Rite

dealer for help.

Before diving, you should have the proper training

from a qualied instructor and obtain certication

from a recognized training agency. Your training

should include a minimum of entry-level open wa-

ter scuba diver training, mastering the basic skills of

buoyancy control, the use of buoyancy control devices

(BCs), oral ination of BCs, low-pressure ination of

BCs, and deation of BCs using a variety of methods.

2 of 40 TravelPac/VoyagerPac Owners Manual

is manual is not a substitute for diver training

from a recognized diver training organization. Fail-

ure to obtain training and certication in safe diving

practices can lead to serious personal injury or death.

If you wear a weight belt with the TravelPac/Voyag-

erPac, you must fasten the crotch strap rst and then

put the weight belt on over it. Failure to do so may

hinder your ability to release the weight belt in an

emergency. is, in turn, can cause serious injury or

death.

Changes to the TravelPac/VoyagerPac, or use of af-

ter-market accessories, can prevent its proper func-

tion or result in damage to the BC. is can cause

serious personal injury or death.

e TravelPac/VoyagerPac is not a United States

Coast Guard approved personal otation device

(PFD). e BC will not provide face-up otation for

all users and conditions.

TravelPac/VoyagerPac Owners Manual 3 of 40

e TravelPac/VoyagerPac should not be used as the

sole form of otation; divers should have additional

forms of otation, such as wet suits or dry suits, to

provide buoyancy in case they need to abandon the

BC or it malfunctions.

e TravelPac/VoyagerPac is not a li bag. Attempt-

ing to use it as such places a diver at extreme risk for

dangerous, uncontrolled ascent.

is BC is not a breathing device. Never breathe from

the BC. Your BC may contain gas residue, liquid, or

contamination that may result in serious personal

injury or death if inhaled.

In accordance with European standards, Dive Rite

BCs can only be considered certied where all com-

ponents are present, as per the original Dive Rite con-

guration. Any variation of the original congura-

tion invalidates conformity to European certication

standards.
