ADVISOR - Life Jackets:

Use
100 Newton life jackets are intended for use in semi-protected waters. Unlike buoyancy aids these life jackets can be used also by non-swimmers. Given their importance as a lifesaving appliance, when designing 100Newton life jackets, far more emphasis is given on the safety aspect and less on the appearance. Their colour varies between yellow and red and they have retro-reflective tapes in order to be clearly visible from a distance. It is important to stress that 100 Newton life jackets are not suitable for use offshore, in these situations the use of 150 Newton life jackets is mandatory.

Instructions of Use
100 Newton life jackets may be either jackets or belts. A life jacket is worn over the shoulders, zipped and then strapped. A lifebelt is worn headfirst through the relevant cut and the strap around your waist is fastened securely.

Maintenance / Replacement
While at sea the life jacket is a potential life-saver and as such must be maintained well. For this reason, always, avoid extreme temperatures, flame and any sharp surfaces. Also after each use, you should wash it with clear lukewarm water.
You must always maintain your buoyancy aid, and wear it at all times while at sea. Lalizas products are manufactured following the highest construction standards, this results in a high degree of effectiveness and durability.

However, a jacket should be replaced if:
- The seams on the shoulders, on the side or the straps are worn out.
- The straps have tears
- The clips are broken
- The outer shell of the buoyancy aid is torn or has cuts
- To ensure your continual safety, you should always keep your life jacket in good condition and always wear it while afloat.
