9. System Installation and Fitting
To use the Tech-Air
following steps:
1. Put on the System, close the Magnetic Zip Closure (1) from bottom to the top.
2. Close the Front Flap (2) taking care to correctly attach the hookand-loop patches, as
shown in Figure 8; the System automatically turns on as soon as the Front Flap (2) is
attached to the hook-and-loop patch.
3. Once the Front Flap (2) has been correctly closed, check the LED Display (3) to verify
that the System has turned on and that has started correctly (see "Display Indications" in
Section 13). In particular, the user must verify that after the System starts-up, no system
fault is present.
4. Once the regular functioning of the System has been verified, signaled by the green (3a)
or the yellow (3b) and green (3a) LEDs, the user may proceed to put on the Outer Garment
taking care that the System remains well fitted underneath the Outer Garment, and that
all fits perfectly in place. Particular care must be taken to the shoulder areas of the System
which must be correctly positioned within the sleeves of the Outer Garment.
5. Once the System has been correctly positioned on the body, close the Outer Garment.
WARNING!
It is imperative that the System is fitted correctly in order to provide the
maximum potential protection in an accident. Outer Garments which are
too small will cause severe discomfort when the System is inflated, Outer
Garments which are too large may not hold the System in place during a
fall or accident. In case of doubts or questions regarding fit, seek advice
from an authorized Alpinestars dealer.
Once the System is switched on and the System Check has been successfully passed (see
"Display Indications" in Section 13), the Tech-Air
under Section 3 above. The System also activates if the user experiences a loss of control
of the motorcycle which may lead to a fall. A fall from the motorcycle when stopped, may
also activate the System.
WARNING! Always ensure that the Front Flap is open when the Tech-Air® 5
System is not worn by the user; check the LED Display (3) to verify
that the System is not turned on.
10. Transportation of Objects Inside the Outer Garment
When using an outer garment, consideration needs to be given to the objects which may be
placed inside its pockets. For example:
- Sharp or pointed objects placed in pockets may pierce the airbag and compromise inflation.
- Bulky objects may limit the airbag expansion after deployment, potentially reducing the
effectiveness of the airbag and/or making the System feel much tighter when inflated,
possibly increasing discomfort or causing distraction or injury.
