CE CERTIFICATION
The Mares regulators described in this manual have been tested and certified by Registered Test Centre No. 0426 - Italcert -
Viale Sarca 336, Milan - I, in compliance with EC directive 89/686/EEC of 21 December 1989. The test procedures were
conducted according to the EN 250: 2000 standard, in conformity with the aforesaid directive, which sets out the conditions
for marketing and essential safety requirements for Category III Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) .
The certification testing results are as follows:
Model Warm water Cold waters Marking Position
(Temp. = > 10°C (50°F)) (Temp. < 10°C (50°F))
Prestige 32 NTT approved approved CE 0426 on the fi rst stage
The CE mark certifies compliance with the essential health and safety requirements (DE 89/686/EEC Annex II). The suffix 0426 after
the letters “CE” indicates the Italcert Registered Test Center in charge of monitoring the production under Art. 11B DE 89/686/EEC.

FIRST STAGE
The Prestige 32 NTT is equipped with the MR32
T
first stage.
The body is nickel- and chrome-plated brass, protected by a shockproof cap. The general technical characteristics are those of
the best Mares first stages with diaphragm operation and the DFC system.
The brand-new “Tri-material” high-pressure valve, manufactured in three materials, allows for superior duration and safety.
There are four LP and two LP ports for connecting the pressure gauge as well as a transducer for an integrated computer, if
desired.
PRESTIGE NTT SECOND STAGE (NANO-THERMOCONDUCTIVE TECHNOLOGY)
MARES PATENT
The most advanced medium-sized, high-performance, technopolymer second stage available on the market.
The integrated VAD system provides unbeatable performance that greatly exceeds the limits required for EC certification.
The innovative Fluid Dynamic Deflector is engineered to receive and properly direct the airflow from the by-pass tube to the
mouthpiece. Combined with the VAD it delivers a very natural and effortless breathing.
Unique, revolutionary design. Large purge button in thermoplastic elastomer, extremely easy to use even when wearing thick
neoprene gloves. The “Mesh-Grid” system minimizes the likelihood of free-flow in strong currents. The new design exhaust tee,
with its streamlined shape, affords superior performance while directing air bubbles further away from the face.
The use of thermoconductive nano-technopolymers in constructing the case makes it possible to replace the metal in
regulator second stages designed for use in cold water.
The external areas of the thermo-conductive case subject to abrasion are protected by overmoulded elastomer.
The Prestige NTT second stage is supplied with the patented “Dive-Pre Dive system.
Moving the lever to “Pre Dive” (Fig. 1) noticeably decreases the sensitivity of the regulator when it’s not used during the dive,
thus preventing the occurrence of free-flow phenomena. During the dive however, the regulator must always be used with the
lever in the “Dive” position (Fig. 2).
WARNING
Never use the DPD lever in the intermediate position.

WARNING
Never start the dive with the lever in the “Pre Dive or intermediate position. During the dive, the lever must be kept
in the “Dive” position.
Failure to observe this warning could result in potentially serious damage.
