HELIO TOURING BINDING.
• In walk mode, the contact point in between the boot and the front locking lever must not exceed the

front lever in a point behind the vertical line marked on the picture.
PICTURE 5 shows a boot which is NOT COMPATIBLE with the binding: the boot tip gets in touch with
the front lever in a point over (even if slightly) the vertical line marked on the picture.

risk of an undesired and/or accidental activation of the front locking lever of the binding that may be
moved from UPHILL WALKING MODE to DOWNHILL SKIING MODE during the uphill walking phase
