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
LiTRIC® airbag (B) 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 using the
airbag deflation tool (Q).
Push the airbag deflation tool into the
special air release valve on the LiTRIC®
fan unit (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 airbag deflation tool to
deflate the LiTRIC® airbag. Never put any
other items or tools into the LiTRIC® System
air release valve.
