- In the event of a swim, pull the red tab to engage the pressurized CO2, inflating the integrated bladder

- Reflective accents provide visibility during low-light outings
Imported.
Note: An inflatable PFD is certified by the U.S. Coast Guard as a Type V PFD. However, it meets Coast Guard requirements for Type III PFDs when it is worn. In other words, you must have the pouch secured around your waist for it to qualify as a required flotation device.
