PFD Checklist

When you’re on or near the water and you’re ready to wear

your PFD, ask yourself the following questions:

Have you read this pamphlet to increase your chances

of survival?

Have you selected the proper PFD?

Does your PFD ﬁt and is it the right size according to

the label?

Have you trial tested your PFD in shallow water?

Does your PFD keep your chin above water and can you

breathe easily?

If you’re a boat operator, have you checked the PFDs for

your passengers?

IMPORTANT MESSAGE — PLEASE READ NOW

Since children come in many sizes and shapes, the

U.S. Coast Guard and this PFD manufacturer urge that

this device be tested immediately after purchase. Check

for proper weight range, comfortable t, and especially

stable face-up position in the water.

A child is difcult to oat in a face-up position

because of the distribution of body weight and a child’s

tendency to struggle or attempt to climb out of the water.

Some children oat best in one style of vest, while others

will oat better in another. If one does not work well, try

another style.

Remember: Never leave children unattended in

water even if they have a personal ﬂotation device on.
