Do not put your Hövding on any other way
GB than as described above.
Do not switch your Hövding on by attaching
the on/off button without closing the zip at
the front all the way up.
Hövding must not be used with other head
and neck protection.
Ensure that the tear seam is not covered by
any garment.
CYCLING WITH YOUR HÖVDING
Make sure that your Hövding is switched on by
listening for the on signal when you have attached
the on/off button or by checking that the on/off
LED is on before you start to cycle.
Only have your Hövding switched on when you
are wearing it and are about to ride your bike.
Otherwise there is a risk of you forgetting that
you are wearing your Hövding, switched on, and
of causing your Hövding to inflate by mistake.
You can, of course, wear your Hövding when it is
switched off when you are doing something other
than cycling.
If you cycle in a loud environment, it may be a
good idea to check the battery level every now
and again.
When you have finished cycling and want to take
off your Hövding, detach the on/off button and
open the zip at the front under your chin. You
4
will hear an acoustic signal to indicate that your
Hövding has been switched off.
When you have taken off your Hövding after
cycling, you can fold up the collar and put it in
your bag.
The on/off button contains a magnet that
activates your Hövding. Therefore, avoid your
Hövding coming into contact with other magnets
(magnetic locks, loudspeakers, etc.).
There are acoustic signals for the following
functions:
On – ascending tone in three steps.
Off – descending tone in three steps.
Low battery level – two short beeps that are
repeated once: beep-beep, beep-beep. The
signal recurs every five minutes.
Critical battery level – 10x 'low battery level' in
a row. The 'off' signal then sounds and Hövding
switches itself off.
Product fault – a loud, long signal that is hard
to mistake for other sounds. The 'off' signal then
sounds and Hövding switches itself off.
MAINTENANCE
Check regularly that your Hövding does not
have any visible damage. If your Hövding has
visible damage, you must not use it until you have
contacted our customer service department for
further information.
The collar cannot be washed as it contains
moisture-sensitive components. However, you
can carefully rub away stains on the collar with a
damp cloth. The collar is protected against wear,
sweat and dirt by the surrounding fabric shell.
The shells can be washed. Shell: See the washing
instructions for each shell.
IN THE EVENT OF A FAULT
Each time Hövding is switched on, the product
automatically carries out an internal check,
testing that all components are working
properly. This internal check is also carried out
continuously as you ride. If anything is faulty, your
Hövding will warn you with a clear acoustic signal
and subsequently switch itself off.
If your Hövding does not work properly, please
contact our customer service department at

IMPORTANT INFORMATION
You must not repair, sew in, dismantle or change
your Hövding. Only authorised staff may service
a Hövding. Hövding contains parts that may be
dangerous if they are removed from the collar
and are handled incorrectly.
Hövding is rainproof. However, Hövding may
not be immersed in water or otherwise be
exposed to extreme water impact. Don't try
to dry your Hövding with an external heat
source such as a hairdryer or microwave.
Do not use your Hövding if holes have been made
in it, if it has been damaged by water or if seams
have torn.
Only switch your Hövding on when you are
wearing it and are about to ride your bike (see
also 'Cycling with your Hövding').
Leave space above your Hövding's tear seam. Do
not cover it with a tight-fitting scarf, for example.
Extreme hairstyles or headgear may impede
inflation of the airbag if they are too bulky,
stiff and heavy. Most hairstyles and headgear
create no problems for inflation. For information
on the hairstyles and headgear that are not
recommended with Hövding, see the FAQs on
our website or contact our customer service
department.
Do not store your Hövding at a high temperature,
for example in a car when the sun is shining.
Hövding must not be used at temperatures below
-20 °C (-4 °F) or above +50 °C (+122 °F).
Do not expose your Hövding to naked flames.
Hövding contains a gas inflator that can break
if it is exposed to a temperature over +130 °C
(+266 °F), and a lithium polymer battery (mobile
phone battery) that can be damaged and, in
extreme cases, catch fire if it is exposed to a
temperature over +60 °C (+140 °F).
