The bladder "slides" over the shoulders when inflated.

Care instructions Regular
1/ Thoroughly rinse your vest with clean water. Pay particular attention to the bleed nipples and inflator. 2/ Empty any water remaining in the vest by operating the lower bleed valve. Do not store water in the vest's inflatable bladder. 3/ Dry your vest on a wide hanger out of direct sunlight. Inspect your jacket yourself every year, looking for any signs of wear. Inflate (by mouth) the inflatable chamber, wait 12 hours and check that it has not deflated.
Overhaul of stabilizing jackets
Your stabilizing vest should be inspected and serviced by an authorized Mares center at least every two years, and more often if you dive frequently. After-sales service: https://support.decathlon.fr/plongee-fr-tp_20687
