14.2.2 Cleaning of the Washable Parts
After following ALL the steps indicated in Section 14.2.1, the User MUST have properly sep-
arated the non-washable parts from the washable parts of the System which should consist
of the fabric Base Layer (1) and the Back Protector (5).
The User can now clean the washable components by HAND-WASHING them ONLY with
water (30°C). Under NO circumstances should the User put the remaining washable com-
ponents into a washing machine. Under NO circumstances should the User completely sub-
merge the non-washable parts in water. The User can ONLY submerge in water and soap
the washable parts and cannot use any chemical solvents or cleaners. Use ONLY a damp
cloth with soap and dry the garment afterwards using a towel or allow it to air dry naturally.
WARNING!
Detach the Airbag to wash the Base Layer (1). The Airbag is a very
critical safety component of the System. Always use extreme cau-
tion when handling the Airbag. Any scratches, holes, or damage to
the Airbag will lead to the System's malfunction. Accordingly, if you
see any such damage to the Airbag, do not use the System and send
it to Alpinestars or to an authorized Alpinestars' Tech-Air® Service
Center for service.
14.2.3 Reassembly of the System
After cleaning the washable parts of the System (by being sure to strictly follow the instruc-
tions provided in Section 14.2.2), the User MUST proceed with the correct reassembly of the
System following the instructions below:
1. Attach the Airbag. Insert the Airbag back into the Base Layer (1) by passing it through
the opening present inside the Back Protector (5) and guiding it gently through the open-
ing. Now place the Gas Inflators Housing (13) inside the Airbag Control Unit (6). Turn the
System so the Back Protector (5) is facing downwards. Insert each protective area of the
Airbag into the corresponding pockets located on the back, the shoulders, and the chest,
being sure to use all the openings present on the Base Layer (1) as shown in Figure 6. Be
sure to avoid twisting or folding of all sections of the Airbag. Attach the Airbag to the Base
Layer (1) by reconnecting 10 of the 11 Connection Clips shown in Figure 14, except for the
one Connection Clip (#1 green) that is located in the upper back area.
IMPORTANT!
Particular attention must be paid to the repositioning of the Airbag, es-
pecially in the areas that protect the chest and shoulders, and you must
avoid twisting and folding the Airbag. Any obstruction of the Airbag could
compromise the correct inflation and therefore, the Airbag protection in
these areas.
