WARNING

01

• Paragliding is a potentially dangerous sport that can cause serious injury including bodily harm, paralysis and 

death. Using Ozone equipment is undertaken with the full knowledge that paragliding involves such risks.  

• As the owner of an Ozone emergency rescue parachute you take exclusive responsibility for all risks associated 

with its use. Inappropriate use and or abuse of your equipment will increase these risks. Any liability claims 

resulting from use of this product towards the manufacturer, distributor or dealers is excluded.

• This parachute has been solely designed for use as an emergency rescue system for paragliders. Do not under 

any circumstances use this parachute for free fall parachuting, BASE jumping or with any other type of aircraft.

• This parachute is not suitable for speeds in excess of 32m/s or 115 kmh.
• This parachute system has been tested and found compliant using the original manufacturer’s inner container. 

Use of any other inner container may produce different results, including failures.

• Use of this parachute with any alternative inner container: the speed of opening and opening shock test has 

been  completed  using  the  inner  container  supplied.  Use  of  any  other  inner  container  may  produce  different 

results (including failure)

• Ensure your parachute is maintained properly and is regularly re-packed, failure to do so may result in premature 

ageing and slower opening times. 

• Complete a thorough daily and pre-flight inspection of all of your equipment. Pay attention to your parachute 

pins and never attempt flying with unsuitable or damaged equipment.

• Do not allow the parachute to become damp; this can affect the opening times and overall performance and 

degrade the materials faster. 

• Do not modify this product in any way and use only within the maximum certified weight. 
• It is essential that the parachute is correctly installed in the harness. A compatibility test must be carried out 

by a qualified professional to exclude any possible non-compatibility between the harness and rescue device. 

• Pay special attention to the terrain you will be flying and the weather conditions before you launch. Always add 

a large safety margin to all your decisions, if you are unsure do not fly. Avoid flying in rain, snow, strong wind, 

and turbulent weather conditions or clouds.

• If you use good, safe judgement you will enjoy many years of paragliding and hopefully never have need to use 

your parachute.

Remember, PLEASURE is the reason for our sport!
