QUICKSTART
GB • Hövding contains a rechargeable battery.
Fully charge the battery before you use your
Hövding for the first time.
• Your Hövding is designed to protect you while
cycling and it must, therefore, be switched off
when you are not cycling.
• Switch on your Hövding by pulling the zip all
the way up and attaching the on/off button on
the right side of the collar.
USING YOUR HÖVDING
Hövding is a revolutionary bicycle helmet, an
airbag for cyclists. Hövding offers by far the
best shock absorbance capacity of any bicycle
helmet worldwide and is also a practical, discreet
accessory that is easy to take with you.
Unlike other bicycle helmets, you don't wear
Hövding on your head. You wear it as a collar
around your neck. The collar contains an airbag
that inflates and protects your head if you have
a cycling accident. The inflation is controlled by
sensors that register abnormal movement if a
cyclist has an accident.
WHEN?
Hövding is designed only for cycling, and not
for other activities such as horse riding, riding a
moped, skiing, in-line skating, skateboarding, etc.
Cycling means urban cycling and cycling on main
roads, but not extreme cycling such as BMX,
off-road, downhill, trick cycling and similar.

Hövding is designed to protect your head in cycling
accidents by registering your pattern of movement.
The airbag can be triggered to be inflated by
extreme movements when Hövding is in use and
switched on. If you hold it in your hands when it is
switched on, you can cause movements similar to
those in an accident.
HOW?
Hövding is designed to be used with standard
bikes, including e-bikes and bikes with small
wheels, including folding bikes. Hövding can
be used with road bikes, but is ergonomically
optimised for a more upright sitting position.
Hövding is not designed for use with special
bikes such as monocycles, tandems, BMX bikes,
recumbents, etc.
WHO?
Hövding fits head sizes (circumference) of 52-59
cm (20.5–23.2") and neck sizes up to 45 cm (17.7")
in circumference. These are absolute maximum
dimensions. If your head or neck is larger,
unfortunately you will have to wait until larger
sizes are produced.
Hövding is designed for cyclists aged 15 and over.
Hövding is not suitable for small children because
they move differently from adults, both when
cycling normally and in accidents.
The specifications for use above apply to the
function specified.
SIZES
Hövding is available in three collar sizes: Small (S),
Medium (M) and Large (L). In terms of operation,
it makes no difference whether your Hövding
is tight or loose around your neck. The collar
sizes that are currently available (S, M, L) are
adapted to the same head size range: 52-59 cm in
circumference. Choose the size that feels best.
Small is recommended for neck size less than 36
cm. Medium is recommended for neck size 34–42
cm. Large is recommended for neck size 38–45
cm. Hövding 2.0 is tested for neck sizes up to
45 cm in circumference. These are the absolute
maximum dimensions.
CHARGING THE BATTERY
Hövding contains a rechargeable battery. Fully
charge the battery before you use your Hövding
for the first time. It takes approximately three
hours to fully charge the battery.
Hövding is charged via a computer using the USB
cable supplied. This is connected to the USB port
on the back of the collar. The computer
must be switched on and not in sleep or eco
mode. During charging, the LEDs on the front
of the collar flash and all LEDs light up without
flashing when Hövding is fully charged. You can
also charge your Hövding via a power socket
using a standard mobile phone charger.
Hövding's battery lasts for approximately nine
hours of use. Hövding draws power from the
battery only when it is switched on.
You can check the battery level by holding down
the battery button on the inside of the collar for
approximately two seconds. The battery level can
also be checked when your Hövding is switched
off.
An acoustic signal will make you aware in good
time that the battery needs to be charged.
FITTING A SHELL ON THE COLLAR
Hövding is supplied with a detachable black basic
shell.
Fitting the shell: Place the shell on top of the
collar. Close the two zips at the top of the outside
and inside of the collar.
Take off the shell: to remove the shell, open the
two zips at the top of the outside and inside of the
collar.
PUTTING ON YOUR HÖVDING
Put on your Hövding by placing it around your
neck and closing the zip at the front under your
chin all the way up. The zip tag has an on/off
button. Switch your Hövding on by pulling up
the zip and attaching the on/off button on the
right side of the collar. An acoustic signal and
LEDs that light up tell you that your Hövding is
switched on.
