For maintenance cycle schedule see chapter 14.1
The earliest possible date for the CYPRES 2 main-
tenance is 6 months early, the latest 6 months after
the month of manufacture.
It’s smart to choose a suitable time during the 13
month window for sending the unit in for main-
tenance, rather than waiting until the last possible
moment, or until the beginning of the next season.
Because of the 252,000+ maintenance procedures
performed to date on CYPRES, and lots of improve-
ments incorporated into the design of CYPRES 2,
Airtec has determined that it is possible to extend the
maintenance window to 13 months on CYPRES 2.
This maintenance window gives you more free-
dom, and avoids maintenance down-time at the
wrong time of the year - please use this feature
wisely!
At any time it’s possible to check the date of the
next recommended maintenance. (See chapter 4.5)
If the unit enters 6 months before the recommended
maintenance due date, the maintenance date (next
maint. in month / year) will automatically be
shown at each self-test. 6 months after the due
date the display will change to: ‘next maint. now’.
All displayed dates are only a reminder.
Please choose a suitable date during the 13 month
time frame for a convenient performance of the
maintenance. According to experience, the number
of maintenances and the
necessary time to do them
increases February-May.
For quicker service, a date
between June and January
is a better choice.
During the CYPRES 2
service life, the skydiver
should not have any operation costs other than the
2 recommended maintenance fees (except for an
activated cutter or filter).
