liable for any personal injury or material damage related to the use of this reserve
system. The Aegis SQ is not suitable for speeds in excess of 32 m/s or 115 km/h. The
parachute, the suspension lines and their connection are not designed for an abrupt
opening, because the necessary shock absorbers are missing. Due to its design
characteristics it is not suitable for the free-fall!
An unauthorized use is prohibited. It is essential to ensure the proper installation of the
Aegis SQ in the harness. In the direct connection, a compatibility test must be carried
out by an entitled person, to exclude possible non-compatibility between the harness
and rescue device.
Only a correctly mounted rescue equipment can function properly in case of an
emergency and thus contribute to safety. In case of a release of the rescue device
above water, for example, as part of safety training, should pay attention to the fact that
a harness foam protector generates positive bouncy and can bring the pilots in the
„head-down“ position in the water.
