6. Treatment and storage
The surface of the boat is sensitive to oils, gasoline, 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 using a special val-
ve-key and clean 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 material to prevent further dirtying, or which
is capable of forming a protective UV-fi lter. Never use agents
containing silicon when treating your boat. Store the cleaned
and dried boat in a dark, dry place at temperatures of between
10–25 °C. During long-term storage, it is recommended to in-
fl ate the boat for 24 hours from time to time to avoid fatiguing
the fold lines. It is also recommended to have the boat servi-
ced by the manufacturer's authorized service station at least
once every two or three years.
Proper care and treatment of the boat will increase its service
life.

8. Boat repairs
You can easily repair a damaged boat yourselves using 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 with no traces of old glue;
•
sandpaper the patch and the damaged area and degrease
the area to be glued 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.
