After exiting the aircraft, which action inflates the crew life vest?

Explanation:
The action tested is how a crew life vest is manually activated for inflation. To inflate, you must release the gas from the CO2 cartridges by pulling down on both red inflation tabs. Doing both tabs ensures that the vest gets fully inflated, providing buoyancy after you exit the aircraft. If the CO2 system doesn’t inflate the vest, you have a backup: you can blow into the manual inflation tubes to inflate. Purge valves aren’t used to inflate; they are for venting or deflating, so pushing them would not inflate the vest.
