Buoyancy User Guide and Safety Info
1) Buoyancy aid's to swimming are designed to supplement a natural buoyancy not simply keep the wearer afloat.
2) They are not a life preserver and are not guaranteed to
prevent drowning.
3) Children must be supervised by a competent care giver at all
times whilst in the water.
e-flex Swim Vest are designed to assist in learning to swim. They will gently tilt the wearer forward into a swimming position, to enable swimming progression. When using the jacket for the first time, we do recommend holding the wearers hands to provide support where needed, until the wearer becomes used to the type of buoyancy provided.
The wearer should be encouraged to kick their legs and use their arms to balance and propel themselves in the water.
If wearing any buoyancy product for an extended period of time, in order to prevent chlorine/salt water from potentially irritating skin, we recommend wearing a rash guard or swimming costume underneath. This is particularly in regards to children with sensitive skin.
We have ensured that our buoyancy products have been tested independently and approved to the latest UKCA and EU safety standard: EN13138-1 and accordingly are marked with UKCA & CE.
