6. Treatment and Storage

The rubber surface coating of the boat is sensitive to oils, gas-
oline, toluene, acetone, kerosene and similar thinning agents.
Prior to storing a dirty boat, wash it down with warm soapy
water. Rinse the boat with fresh water after using the boat in
seawater. It is recommended to check the state of the infl ation
valves and the safety relief valves.
If a valve is not air-tight, it is possible to unscrew the valve
body from the boat with the use of a special valvekey and cle-
an its membrane with a strong jet of water or compressed air.
Prior to storage, it is recommended to rub the surface of the
boat with an agent intended for the treatment of such surfaces,
which has cleaning properties, and which impregnates the ma-
terial to prevent further dirtying, or which is capable of forming
a protective UVfi lter.
Never use agents containing silicon when treating your boat.
Store the cleaned and dried boat in a dark, dry place at tem-
peratures of between 10–25 °C. During longterm storage, it is
recommended to infl ate the boat for 24 hours from time to time
to avoid fatiguing the fold lines.
It is also recommended to have the boat serviced by the ma-
nufacturer's authorized service station at least once every two
or three years.
Proper care and treatment of the boat will increase its service
life.

7. Guarantee Conditions

The guarantee period is 24 months and is calculated from the
date of sale.
The producer provides cost-free repairs or replacement of
faulty components for material faults or production faults.

8. Boat Repairing

You can easily repair a damaged boat yourselves by means of
the accompanying gluing set.
Gluing:
•
mark out the damaged area on the boat and choose an
appropriately sized patch;
•
the surfaces of both patch and place to be glued must be
clean, dry and without traces of old glue;
•
sandpaper the patch and the damaged area and degrease
the area to be glued by using acetone or gasoline;
•
spread a thin layer of glue on both surfaces to be glued and
repeat this step once the fi rst layer has dried;
•
after the second layer has dried, press the patch fi rmly on
the damaged place, weigh down or use a rolling pin on
a fl at surface.
For minor repairs (punctures), it is possible to re-infl ate the
boat and continue using it after waiting for approx. 30 minutes;
after more serious repairs, you should wait for 24 hours before
using the repaired boat. Complicated repairs should be per-
formed by the manufacturer or at authorized service stations.
Guarantee repairs and post-guarantee repairs are provi-
ded by the manufacturer:
