The breast belt‘s buckle closes magnetically. To
close it move the strap of the breast belt to the
shoulder belt of the opposite side and let the
buckle snap in. Pull the strap forward to open.

Finally, close the leg strap. To do this, remove
the leg strap from the right hip pocket, pull it
forward between your legs and hook it into the
loop under the hip belt buckle. The length of
the leg strap can be adjusted in the right-hand
hip pocket. The leg strap is stored in the right
hip pocket when not in use. The leg strap must
be put on properly in order to avoid having the
avalanche backpack pulled over your head.

The carrying system meets the high European
standards (TÜV guidelines) for extreme
operational demands. The tensile strength for all
weight bearing straps equals 3000 N (674 lbs).
TIP! PUT ON YOUR BACKPACK BEFORE YOU ATTACH
THE ACTIVATION HANDLE. THIS WAY YOU AVOID AN
UNWANTED OR INADVERTENT ACTIVATION.
STEP 4
CHECKING THE ACTIVATION HANDLE
a
The activation handle is charged with a small
pressurized capsule, which contains 0.19 grams
of explosives. It can therefore only be used
once after which it must be replaced for a refill.
By pulling the attached activation handle the
pressurized capsule explodes. The resulting
pressure punctures the cartridge and the airbags
are filled.
a
The pressurized capsule functions for a limited
time only. We therefore do not recommend the
use of unused cartridges after 3 winter seasons.
a
The guaranteed service life is indicated on a red
cap that covers the side opening of the activation
handle. It indicates the year of expiry. The month
of expiry is always May of the year shown.
a
Unused, expired activation handles can be
exchanged for a fee.
a
The pin has to be firmly fixed and the red line
should not be visible. If the red line is visible on
the pin, the handle has not been charged and
therefore will not function properly!
a
Do not use damaged handles as this might cause
it to burst during the activation function.
a
Do not try to pull the pin out of the coupler –
there is a risk of injury!
a
Protect the handle from contamination!
a
Always store the handle away from children! For
the wireless activation handle please consult the
special instruction manual.
