  1. Before you set up the inflatable, read this instruction manual, including these procedures, completely.
  2. Do not allow passengers to slide down the slide, if it is not the safest exit.
  3. If it is safe to use the slide to exit, have passengers immedidately exit the landing area after they slide.

  5. Ensure that all passengers safely and calmly exit the inflatable unit. Evacuate quickly, but not in a disorderly panic.
  6. If you believe there is a circuit failure, use the circuit breaker box to cut power to the outlet providing the blower its power. Call United Inflatable Rides to report a potentially unsafe blower. Wait for staff to arrive.
  7. If you believe there is no circuit failure, switch the blowers to "OFF" to ensure that they no longer draw the power they require to blow air.
