What is the first step to obtain the life vest?

Explanation:
Accessing the life vest from its stowage is the first action you take. The vest is stored in a dedicated compartment (or under the jumpseat) so you must remove it from that container to have the vest in your hands and ready for the donning process. Once you’ve withdrawn it, you would then open or remove the plastic pouch and pull the vest on as needed. Retrieving from a seat pocket isn’t the standard crew storage and pulling from the jumpseat is less precise for the initial access. Ripping open the plastic pouch comes after you’ve taken the vest out and are ready to don it, not before.
