04 Flying with the Connect
Reverse Evo
Converting the harness
The Connect Reverse Evo can be turned
from a backpack into a harness and vice
versa in just a few steps.
Conversion from backpack into
harness
Fig. 22 to Fig.25 show how to convert the
backpack.
PLEASE NOTE
The two pockets on the outside of the
backpack can still be used to store small
objects when it is used as a harness. This
allows you to keep safe items which
would otherwise annoy you in your jacket
pocket. These pockets cannot be done
up, so be careful not to lose anything
when changing it back into a backpack.
It is better to keep larger items such as a
spare t-shirt in the top lid pocket or in the
pocket for the hydration system bladder.
⚠
WARNING
The zip for the back section must be done
up completely to ensure the full level of
protection is provided by the airbag’s rear
chamber.
The compression straps for the backpack
must be loosened off fully in order to
allow the airbag to inflate completely.

Conversion from harness into
backpack
To change the harness back into a
backpack, follow the steps above in reverse
order.
PLEASE NOTE
Open the compression straps first. This
facilitates packing and in particular makes
it easier to close the zip.
When packing, make sure that none of
the buckles are caught between the seat
and the back, as this can cause dents in
the seat over time.
