For inserts from other manufacturers, dYnaFit cannot guarantee correct functio-
ning and quality.

safetY instructions anD warnings
please be aware that skiing, like many other sporting activities, can be dangerous
and physical injuries of all kinds can occur.
the dYnaFit touring binding is a part of the function unit consisting of ski boot,
binding and ski. it provides the greatest possible safety based on current standards.
However, it is impossible to predict every situation in which all bindings will release
and whether they will do so in all circumstances.
it is not guaranteed that a skier will not be injured by a release or non-release of the
binding. the ski binding minimizes only the risk of injury to the legs but not to the
knees. the binding has no influence on any other injuries that might occur during
skiing.
• because adjustments depend not only on the type of binding and boot but also on
the type of skier, they should be exclusively carried out by an authorized dealer.
binding settings must be controlled by a suitable test device. installation and
setting by an unauthorised person will always be at the risk of the skier, will
invalidate the warranty and may result in increased risk of injury to the skier.
• in order to maintain the safety functions, please avoid unauthorised adaptation
of your ski binding, and have adjustments or adaptions completed by a specialist
dealer. incorrect setting, adaptation or maintenance may increase the risk of injury.
• prior to every use, check the function of your ski binding and inspect it for
defective or missing parts. if required, have your equipment repaired by a
specialist dealer. You risk exposing yourself to injury if you continue using an
impaired skiing binding.
• as a skier you must be aware of the risks of this type of sport. For this reason, adapt
your skiing style and the choice of downhill skiing to your skills and capabilities.
• select your tours carefully. do not overestimate your capabilities.
• observe the warnings and instructions in the skiing area. strictly adhere to
weather and avalanche warnings.
• do not ski if you are not physically fit, if you feel tired or if you are under the
influence of alcohol, drugs or medication.
• the release level of your ski binding may change as a result of dirt, extended or
incorrect storage or non-use. the release value setting must therefore be checked
by a specialist dealer especially at the start of the skiing season using a suitable
test device.
• ski boot inserts that are excessively worn can impair the release of your ski
binding. For this reason, have your equipment checked regularly or additionally,
when required, by a specialist dealer.
• only use the ski binding either with a dYnaFit ski brake or a dYnaFit leash.
Failure to observe this can result in the ski sliding down without braking after
release, potentially endangering others.
• always use the binding together with a deep snow leash when skiing in deep snow
so that the released ski can be relocated.
• always use a ski binding cover when transporting skis exposed on a car roof to
prevent road salt, dirt and other contamination impairing the proper function of
your ski binding.
• any unintended use of the ski binding such as use on monoski, changes to ski
binding components will increase the risk of faulty release or release failure.
• employing accessories and/or intermediate elements may jeopardise the operation
of the ski binding. For this reason, use only original accessories. installation must
be performed by a specialist dealer.
• if you have purchased a dYnaFit binding on the internet, a specialist dealer must
check and adapt the ski binding to your personal data. dYnaFit will not be liable
if any settings have been made by an unauthorised person.
• please keep these user instructions in a safe place.
