4. OPERATION
4.1. CHARGING
Carefully lift the electronics cover (E) to
access the USB-C port (D).
Use the supplied USB-C cable (R) to
charge the device via a USB power source
(e.g., a laptop) or with a USB charger
(see point 1).
The LED lights (F) indicate the charging
status (see point 4.3).
Remove the USB-C cable as soon as
charging is complete and carefully close
the electronics cover again to prevent
moisture or dirt from penetrating.
PLEASE NOTE:
You must charge the battery before
first use.
To ensure full performance, we recom-
mend that the system is charged for more
than 24hrs before first use and after
prolonged storage.
ATTENTION
■ The trigger handle should be locked (see
point 4.4.1) while charging. The airbag may
deploy if the trigger handle is pulled when
the LED lights) are on, even during
charging.
■ Do not leave the USB-C cable plugged in
while the LiTRIC Avalanche Airbag is in use
in the backcountry.

4.2. ON/OFF FUNCTION
Carefully lift the electronics cover (E).
To turn the system on, press the ON/OFF
button (C) for 2+ seconds. All three LED
lights (F) will light up and there will be a
rising series of beeps when powering on.
Each time the LiTRIC System is switched
on it will perform an automatic self-test.
The LEDs show that the device is being
charged internally (see point 4.3).
As soon as the system is ready for
deployment, it will automatically run a
brief motor test and shortly afterward the
LED lights will indicate the charge status
(see point 4.3). The LiTRIC system is now
ready to deploy.
