Now place the reserve chute like a snake in the container. Take care to use the 
full length and width. 

15. Close the first three rescue flaps and secure them with a small line loop.  

This  method  will avoid  burns  from a  deployment  since  the  bundle  of  lines  will 
be released first and will not encounter the material. 

 

16. Starting at the main  riser, loop the line bundles  in  the shape of a figure-eight. 

Use  silicone-based  rubber  rings  to  fix  the  line  bundles

.  Make  sure  that 

there is no line knot in the line loop.  

 

17. Make  sure  to  leave  approximately  30  cm  free  to  the  first  figure-eight.  This 

length is needed for the final line loop. 

 

18. Place  the  line  bundles  in  the  designated  line  pocket  inside  the  reserve 

container.  

 

19. Secure the fourth and final rescue flap with the remaining line length (30 cm). 

 

Your rescue system is now packed! 

Use of this parachute with any alternative inner container: Speed of opening 
and  opening  shock  test  has  been  completed  using  the  inner  container 
supplied.  Use  of  any  other  container  may  produce  different  results 
(including failure).  
Make  sure  that  no  tools  used  for  packing  (e.g.  packing  cord)  remain  in  the 
packed reserve. 

Installing your rescue handle 

Most  harnesses  have  a  handle  for  the  harness  containers.  This  handle  must  be 
connected  to  the  inner  container.  Handles  for  front  and  back  containers  are 
generally  suspended  in  the  central  loop,  container on  side  or under  the  seat, the 
side strap used. 

The inner container of ICARO rescue systems has two loops, in which the handle 
of the harness can be attached (center, side). 

Note the instructions for the rescue unit in the operating instructions of your 
harness. If there is no handle of the harness or it does not fit with your inner 
container, please ask the dealer of your harness or your paragliding school.  

Attachment of the connection belt with the harness 

For  connecting  the  two  belts  use  a  fixable  24  kN-  snap  hook  with  a  diameter  of  
8 mm. It is very important that the snap hook cannot twist to prevent rotation stress 
of the snap hook. Therefore, use cable fixer, adhesive tape or strong rubber bands 
and pull it 

above and below the snap hook 

around the belts.
