AEROSIZE Avalanche Airbag Vest, Руководство пользователя

Страница: 16 / 28

Wear protective clothing UNDER the vest so that the airbag can be inflated
freely when the system needs to be used. Nothing may be put on, worn on,
attached to, etc. the vest. The vest must be the top outer layer (of clothing,
equipment, etc.).
No sharp elements, such as crampons, ice axes, etc., may be attached to
and carried near the vest as they may pierce the fabric.
Both at the place of storage and on the trail the system should be stored
and used in a way that prevents accidental activation or mechanical
damage with sharp objects.
Do not use vest tightening straps for any other purposes (e.g. for attaching
skis).
The airbag must always be folded as per the instructions in this
manual. Failure to do so may prevent proper inflation of the system
and damage the airbag.
After activating and deploying the system, replace the cartridges with argon
cartridges supplied by the manufacturer only.
Argon is a noble gas that has no smell, taste or color.
It is non-flammable and non-toxic, but at too high a dose it can cause
pulmonary edema, so do not breathe it directly from cartridges or from
a filled airbag frame.
Do not inflate the system in small rooms or in a crowd.
After using the system in an avalanche send the vest with the airbag
to a service center for inspection to check for any damage (e.g. hitting
rocks, rubbing against mountain pine or material carried by the avalanche).
