Frequently Asked Questions
How do I re-arm my Onyx inflatable life jacket after it has deployed?
To re-arm your Onyx inflatable life jacket, you will need to replace the deployed CO2 cylinder and the water-soluble bobbin with new components from this re-arming kit. Carefully follow the detailed instructions provided in the Onyx manual to ensure proper installation and arming.

How often should I check my re-arming kit to ensure it's ready?
It is recommended to inspect your re-arming kit annually, or more frequently if exposed to harsh marine environments. Ensure the CO2 cylinder is full (check weight specifications if possible) and the bobbin is intact and free from degradation or moisture.
