21. Important Information for Users WARNING!
The System is an active safety protection system that is different from normal
motorcycle clothing and as a result requires additional care and precautions. You
must read and understand the instruction manual fully before use, as well as pay
close attention to the following warnings:
• The System can only provide a limited amount of protection in an accident or event. As
such, there always remains a possibility that a serious or fatal injury could occur even when
using the System.
• The System is designed and developed for street use and limited off-road use only when
in Street Mode, race use when in Race Mode. This System has not been designed for hard
off-road use, stunt use or any non-motorcycling applications. Alpinestars does not accept
any claims for malfunctions of the System used outside the environments for which its use
is intended.
• Certain types of movement could be interpreted as a crash by the System and cause a
deployment though no crash has occurred.
• The System has been designed to deploy in crashes above a minimum energy threshold.
This is to prevent wasteful use of the charges in situations where protection typically would
not be needed. Thus, in low speed/low energy crashes it is likely and reasonable that the
System will not deploy.
• There are NO user serviceable parts inside the System, except for Gas Inflators (15) that
can be replaced ONLY by Users that are located in the countries authorized for Gas Inflators
(15) handling and replacement. For the complete list of the authorized countries, see the
Documents Section in the Tech-Air® App. Under no circumstances should Users attempt
to open, service, disassemble or modify the System. Do not remove or change the internal
battery. Any and all work performed on the System must be done by an authorized dealer
where the System was purchased. Severe injury or damage may result otherwise.
• Do not attempt to make any modifications or adjustments to the electronics or to the
vest of the System.
• The System must only be used for motorcycle street riding and limited off-road riding in
Street Mode or race use when in Race Mode. The System must only be used for motorcycle
street riding and only limited off-road riding in Street Mode or race use when in Race Mode.
– it is not to be used for any other purpose, motorcycle related or otherwise. This includes:
