Care and Maintenance
Ultraviolet light, heat, moisture, salt water, aggressive cleaning
agents, improper storage or mechanical stress (dragging over the
ground) will accelerate the ageing process. Please take note of the
following points:
• Don't leave the parachute in the sun unnecessarily.
• Do let a damp or wet parachute dry completely while unpacked,
either at room temperature or outside in the shade.
• Do not expose the packed parachute to excessive temperature
fluctuations, but do ensure adequate air circulation to prevent the
formation of condensation.
• If the parachute gets wet with salt water, rinse it thoroughly with
fresh water.
• Only clean the parachute with fresh water and a little neutral soap
if necessary. Do not use solvents under any circumstances.
• The parachute must not be stored close to oil, grease, acids and
dyes. Store in a dry place at room temperature.
• Don't drag the parachute over the ground.
Check
A new ADVANCE reserve parachute must be given a check every 24
months (2 years) by the manufacturer or an authorised service cen-
tre. When a check is carried out, the condition of all materials is as-
sessed with the utmost care according. You can find more informa-
tion on the check in the «Service» section of this manual or at www.
advance.ch.
Repairs
You should not attempt to repair a parachute yourself as a general
rule. The various seams and lines are made with great precision. For
this reason, only the manufacturer or an authorised service centre
may carry out repairs.
Acid stains and mould can affect the strength of the material. Stained
and soiled parachutes must be returned to the manufacturer or an
authorised service centre for investigation and repair, if necessary.
Useful Life
The total lifespan of this parachute is ten years, so long as the 2 year
checks have been regularly carried out by the approved agencies.
