After having closed all container parts, it is advisable to check that the two
zips under the opening system have been closed correctly.
The cord must be removed at the end of this process, and must be extract-
ed slowly in order to avoid damaging the elastic loops due to excessive fric-
tion between the parts.
Finally, the two zips should be completely closed until the zip sliders are
inserted under their covers at the opposite ends.
ATTENTION:
Each new combination of reserve parachute and harness that is assembled
for the first time must be inspected by an official harness or reserve chute
dealer or a flight instructor to verify that it can be effectively deployed.
Checks should be carried out by hanging in a flight simulator. Deployment
of the reserve chute must be possible from the normal flying position.
The paragliding harness and reserve parachute unfolding system is not
suitable for use in free fall and during strong shocks.
Its bearing structure has been designed, tested and certified to withstand
reserve parachute opening shock in accordance with standard paragliding
requirements.
This does not exclude the possibility that other parts of the harness may be
damaged by the shock resulting from the opening of the reserve parachute.
This is true whether it occurs due to actual need in the event of an accident
or if it occurs voluntarily, for example during a safety course.
2.1.4 - Compatible reserve parachutes
The volume of the reserve parachute must be no more than 5.2 litres.
