LOCKING SCREW STOP SCREW
ABV BODY AND CAP SEALING GASKET LOCKING NUT INNER FRAME

What’s Included:

Introduction: The Ambient Breathing Valve (ABV®) allows the diver to breathe ambient air while at the surface conserving the diver’s air supply.
To use, simply open the valve while above water to breathe ambient air and close it when ready to dive.

Installation instructions:
1: Remove the existing inner frame from the mask, then insert the supplied ABV® inner frame.

2: Thread locking nut onto innerframe. Using the supplied wrench, tighten the locking nut firmly onto the mask.

3: Slide the rubber sealing gasket over the locking nut.

4: Thread the ABV® body onto the mask. Tighten firmly to ensure that the ABV® does not
leak when submerged.

5: Align mounting holes, then using a screw driver, thread the locking screw intothe mounting holes to lock the ABV in place.

NOTE : Do not overtighten the ABV® cap! Overtightening the ABV® can cause the cap to become difficult to open.
DO NOT DIVE SPECTRUM FFM IF ABV® IS LEAKING WATER. TIGHTEN OR REINSTALL THE ABV® IF THERE IS SIGN
OF WATER LEAKAGE.
SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH CAN OCCUR.

Operations Instructions:
To operate the ABV®, turn the cap counter-clockwise to open valve. With the cap open, the mask is open to the ambient air. This allows the diver to breathe ambient air, preserving air supply.
When ready to dive, simply turn the ABV® cap clockwise to close the cap and breathe from air supply. Ensure that the cap is sealed tightly before diving.
NOTE : Do not overtighten the ABV®! Overtightening the ABV® can cause the cap to become difficult to open.

Maintenance Instructions: The following maintenance steps should be performed annually.

1: Remove the ABV® cap by unscrewing stop screw. Rotate the ABV® cap counter-clockwise until the cap is completely removed from the body.

2: Remove the O-ring in the ABV® body and replace with a new Oring. Lightly lubricate the new Oring with a high grade silicone grease.

3: Remove check valve from the inner frame and replace with a new valve by pulling the small tab through the valve seat with a pair of needle nose pliers.

4: Ensure that the ABV® is free from dirt and debris. Reassemble the ABV® and test for leaks. The ABV® is now maintained and ready to dive.
