3. PRECAUTIONS FOR USE
•
The Race Suit airbag cannot be worn alone, it must be integrated into a HELITE
compatible suit.
•
The airbag must always be used with a rigid dorsal (carbon, plastic) between the
cartridge and the rider's back.
•
The airbag should only be used in temperatures between -10°C (14°F) and +45°C
(113°F). Prolonged exposure of the airbag to temperatures outside this range may
damage it and affect its function.
•
Do not modify or remove any part of the airbag.
•
Do not sew or stick (transfer,...) anything to the airbag.
•
Do not carry sharp objects (such as keys, knives, screwdrivers) in your pockets that
could damage the airbag.
•
Remove any piercings in the area covered by the airbag.
•
Anything worn on the airbag can slow down or prevent the airbag from inflating,
as well as put a lot of pressure on the areas covered by the airbag.
4. BEFORE FIRST USE
a) Recharge the battery of the Race Suit airbag
Before using the airbag, charge the battery of the CDU electronic card (see page 32).
b) Installation of the airbag in the suit
1
Place the suit on a table in front of you and
open the middle front zipper and the lining
(=inner fabric). The airbag will be positioned
between the suit and the lining.
2
Remove the velcro on both sides of the black/
transparent striped elastic. This operation
separates the fronts from the back so that the
airbag can be slipped between the suit and the
lining.
3
Position the airbag correctly in the suit. The blue side should be against the
suit and the black side against the lining.
