Troubleshooting
The vest feels loose on the child.
Ensure the correct size is being used. Tighten the zip-up front to provide a secure fit. If the vest is too loose, the child may not receive adequate buoyancy.
The vest is not providing enough buoyancy.
Check the weight range of the child to ensure the vest is appropriate for their size. If the vest is old, the foam inserts might have lost some buoyancy over time. It may be time for a replacement.
The zipper is difficult to close or open.
Ensure that the fabric is not caught in the zipper. If necessary, lubricate the zipper with a small amount of mild soap or zipper lubricant.
