NORTHERN DIVER GLOVES MANUAL Thank you for purchasing Northern Diver gloves. Do not use this product before reading this manual. It is important to fully understand gloves proper care and maintenance before use. Gloves, like any other part of your diving gear, need to be properly cared for and maintained, which means doing the right checks before and after use, cleaning them properly and storing them correctly. This will guarantee they last you a long time. General Washing After every use rinse the gloves in fresh water, this is particularly important after contact with salt water. Salt water can cause fabrics such as neoprene to lose its flexibility and can create nasty smells if unwashed. Do this to ensure your dive gloves last as long as possible. If your gloves become soiled they may be hand-washed with mild soap (preferably antibacterial) and warm water. Always wash separately from other garments. DO NOT DRY CLEAN. DO NOT USE BLEACH. Rinse thoroughly with cold water and pat dry with a towel and allow to air dry completely. DO NOT MACHINE DRY. Checks Like all other equipment, you should check your dive gloves regularly to ensure they are fit for their purpose. You are looking for any tears, splits or fraying. These, when small, are usually very easy to repair with diving tape or glue. If there is a large tear however, you will need to replace your dive gloves. Storage Store your dive gloves in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. You do not want to degrade the neoprene material, which is why you should also store gloves, or any other equipments, away from car exhaust fumes, so not in the garage, and avoid spraying aerosols near them. Do not bend or fold your dive gloves for compact storage, this can have a detrimental effect on the insulation efficiency of the gloves. As with any fabric, read the manufacturers instructions before washing and drying to get important washing and cleaning facts and to not void any warranty that may apply to your gloves.

Special Washing Care for Gloves Containing DuPont™ KEVLAR® or NOMEX® All gloves should be hand-washed and air-dried as instructed above in the General Washing section. Gloves containing KEVLAR® or NOMEX® should be kept clean to eliminate contamination from any other chemicals or fibres, which may compromise the flame resistant characteristics. Paint, oils and other flammable chemicals can pose a significant hazard if they are not removed from the garment. Gloves containing KEVLAR® or NOMEX® should always be washed separately from other items. This will help prevent contamination of lint from other fibres, which may be flammable. Only use your gloves for their intended purpose. Keep gloves out of direct sunlight when not in use. Find us
