PRACTICE WITH GLOVES, MITTENS, SKI
POLES, WHEN SKIING IN A SECURED
SKIING AREA, ETC. SO THAT YOU ARE AS
SURE AS POSSIBLE WHEN HANDLING THE AVABAG
AVALANCHE AIRBAG.
NOTE THAT YOU DO NOT NEED AN AVABAG CAR-
TRIDGE FOR PRACTICING. THE AVABAG AVALANCHE
AIRBAG IS NOT READY FOR USE IN AN AVALANCHE
EMERGENCY WITHOUT A SCREWED-IN AVABAG
CARTRIDGE!
PRACTICING INSTRUCTIONS FOR YOUR
AVABAG AVALANCHE AIRBAG
Many airbag users (%) do not manage to activate
their airbag in an avalanche. Regular training is
therefore important for being able to activate the
AVABAG avalanche airbag safely and get a feeling for
the required activation force in an avalanche. You
should train for an emergency as often as possible
so that grabbing the activation handle becomes
intuitive. WITHOUT A SCREWED-IN CARTRIDGE, the
system can easily be used for practice (dry run)
without opening the AVABAG balloon and therefore
incurring no additional cost or effort.
Remove the AVABAG cartridge BEFORE a practice
activation. Make sure that the AVABAG system(P)
is armed (see page ). Pull the activation handle
abruptly and as firmly as possible. A clear “CLACK”
signals successful activation. Even with an AVABAG
airbag that is ready to use, this would be exactly the
amount of power you need for activation.
