SAFETY INFORMATION
CORRECT INSERTION OF THE PROTECTOR
With the flat, unprinted side towards the back,
insert the protector until it it locks in place.
The protector has been inserted correctly if the
print on the protector can still be read.
• Make sure that the backpack is not too high or too low on
your back. Tighten shoulder straps, chest strap and hip belt.
• Before each use, make sure that all straps, belts, buckles
and plug fasteners are tight.
• Be aware that carrying with you any pointy and/or sharp objects (such as knives, screwdrivers,
crampons, tools, bottles and other hard objects) can impair the protective function.
• Do not carry any glass bottles or explosive objects (such as gas cartridges and pressure
containers) or highly flammable and corrosive liquids in the backpack.
• Make sure that all objects that could damage the protector or airbag system are not loose in
the backpack. Protect pointy and/or sharp objects properly (with a tool bag, protective cover
for crampons, knife case etc.) and pack them such that they point away from the body
• When using ski lifts or similar transport facilities, take the backpack off, or, alternatively,
make sure the backpack does not get caught on something when you get off the lift.
• When using the backpack with a strapped-on snowboard, skis and/or climbing assistance
devices (such as snowshoes or short skis), please note that the greater size and much higher
centre of gravity can increase the risk of getting caught on something or of you losing your
balance.
• Please note that a backpack containing heavy objects may have a negative impact on the
sports activity.
