4.5.2. What to do in case of an
avalanche
Familiarize yourself with the correct
procedures in the event of an avalanche.
In principle, the following general advice
applies:
In an avalanche, always try to escape and
get to safety as fast as possible. Leave the
airbag inflated and on your body until all
potential danger from the avalanche has
passed and you are safely out of the
danger zone.
ATTENTION
The LiTRIC Avalanche Airbag must be sent in for a service inspection
(see point 5.3) after it has been deployed and inflated in an avalanche.
4.6. AFTER DEPLOYMENT
4.6.1. Deflation
In order to prepare the LiTRIC Avalanche
Airbag for another deployment, you must
first deflate the LiTRIC airbag (B) using
the airbag deflation tool (Q).
Push the airbag deflation tool into the
special air release valve on the LiTRIC fan
(A). Now the air can escape the airbag.
Leave the airbag deflation tool in the fan
unit until the LiTRIC airbag is packed
away, and then remove it.

Deflation
ATTENTION
Use only the original ORTOVOX airbag
deflation tool to deflate the LiTRIC airbag.
Never put any other items or tools into the
LiTRIC System air release valve.
