1. DISCLAIMER AND EXCLUSION OF LIABILITY
Use of this paraglider is in all cases at the USER'S OWN RISK. THE CERTIFICATION AND THE
WARRANTY SHALL BE RENDERED INVALID if changes of any kind (including changes to the brake
lines) or improper repairs are made to this paraglider or if any inspections are missed (annual and 2-
yearly check).
Pilots are responsible for their own safety. Before every flight, the pilot must check the glider's air-
worthiness and should only launch if it is fit to fly. The pilot must check the weather forecast and only
fly if both current and forecasted conditions guarantee a safe flight.
The glider may only be used with a pilot's licence which is valid for the area or under the supervision of
an approved flying instructor. There shall be no liability on the part of third parties, in particular the
manufacturer and distributor.
In terms of the warranty and guarantee conditions, the paraglider may not be flown if any of the
following situations exists:
1. the inspection period has expired, you have carried out the inspection yourself, or the
inspection has been carried out by an unauthorised inspector;
2. the take-off weight does not fall within the permissible overall take-off weight range;
3. the glider is flown in rain or cloud or when there is fog or snow;
4. there are turbulent weather conditions or wind speeds on launch higher than 2/3 of the
maximum flyable airspeed of the glider. This speed will also depend on the total take-off
weight;
5. the glider is used for aerobatics / extreme flying or flight manoeuvres at an angle greater than
90°;
6. the pilot has insufficient experience or training;
7. the wrong equipment or inadequate equipment (reserve, helmet, footwear etc) is used;
8. the glider is used in connection with a propulsion unit which has not been certified as
compatible;
9. modifications have been made to the canopy, lines or risers which have not been approved;
10. the glider is opened in free fall - this is not a parachute.
