3. Put on the Garment. Put the Outer Garment (with the Integrated System) on and close
the Front Flap (3) taking care to correctly attach the hook-and-loop patches, as shown in
Figure 11; the System automatically turns on as soon as the Front Flap (3) is attached to
the hook-and-loop patch.
4. System Verification. Once the Front Flap (3) has been correctly closed, check the LED
Display (2) to verify that the System has turned on and that has started correctly (see
Section 13 "Display Indications"). In particular, the User must verify that after the System
starts-up, no System Fault is present.
6. Close the Garment. Once the User has verified the regular functioning of the System, as
indicated by the solid green LED (2c), the User can close the Outer Garment.
Once the System is switched on and successful startup of the System has been verified (see
Section 13 "Display Indications"), the System is ready to provide the User with Airbag pro-
tection as explained under Section 3 "Tech-Air® Envelope of Protection" above. The System
also activates if the User experiences a loss of control of the motorcycle which may lead to
a fall. A fall from the motorcycle when stopped, may also activate the System.
WARNING!
It is imperative that the System is fitted correctly, in order to provide
the User with the maximum potential protection in an accident. Out-
er Garments which are too small will cause severe discomfort when
the System is inflated, Outer Garments which are too large may not
hold the System in place during a fall or accident. In case of doubts or
questions regarding fit, seek advice from an authorized Alpinestars
dealer.
Tip:
To improve the fit and comfort of the System, a Fitting Belt (8) is present
in the vest. To make the adjustment, access the belt through the Internal
Openings (7) of the vest located in the back area.
Tip:
The back area consists of a Comfort Padding (9) that can be left in place
or alternatively removed per the rider's preference, in order to improve the
comfort and breathability of the System. To remove the Comfort Padding
(9), access the pocket in the back area through the Internal Openings (7)
of the vest and remove the foam.
WARNING!
Do NOT replace the Comfort Padding (9) with any other object and/
or protection. The pocket in which the Comfort Padding (9) is con-
tained is not designed to hold protections and/or any other type of
garment or object.
