enter avalanche terrain.
c. Red blinking light (1g): The SuperCapacitor is not charged enough for use
and may not be able to inflate the airbag fully. Charging is required. Do not
enter avalanche terrain.
d. Red light is solid (1g): SuperCapacitor has a malfunction. Do not enter ava-
lanche terrain. Refer to TROUBLESHOOTING section for further details.
Note: The LED blinking speed indicates that the system is either charging (2X
per second) or is in the ON mode (1X every 3 seconds).
Check the SuperCapacitor status before you intend to use your JetForce TOUR
backpack, and charge if necessary (refer to SUPERCAPACITOR CHARGING).
WEARING THE PACK (FIGURE 3)
Proper fit and secure attachment to your body is critical.
1. Put the backpack on your back with both arms through the shoulder straps.
2. Locate the Leg Strap (3c). Wrap the Leg Strap around the back of your right
leg, then between your legs. Slide the Waist Strap (3e) through the Leg Strap
Loop (3d).
3. Insert the Left-Side Buckle (3a) through the Right-Side Buckle (3b), then
tighten the straps for a secure fit.
4. If the leg strap is too tight or too loose adjust it at the plastic adjustment
buckle at the base of the right hip-belt.
5. Buckle and tighten the Sternum Strap (3f).
6. Adjust the shoulder straps to distribute the load between the shoulders and
waist.
A
WARNING! Do not use the JetForce TOUR without the Leg Strap (3c).
The Leg Strap prevents the backpack from being ripped off your body
during an avalanche.
ADJUSTING THE DEPLOYMENT HANDLE (FIGURES 8 AND 9)
Proper alignment of the Deployment Handle is critical. Change the positioning
of the handle according to user's body height (Figure 8). It is possible to swap
the handle from the user's left side to right side (Figure 9).
ARMING THE SYSTEM (FIGURE 1)
A
WARNING! It is critical that the system be armed before entering ava-
lanche terrain.
1. Access the Inflation Unit and locate the Power Knob (1d).
2. Lift up and turn the Power Knob clockwise and hold for 2 seconds.
3. The JetForce TOUR will auto-test the system to ensure that all components
are functioning correctly.
4. Zip the Inflation Unit Compartment (1k) closed before adding objects into the
backpack.
5. After arming, confirm system status (Figure 7).
DEPLOYING THE AIRBAG (FIGURE 4)
With the system armed (see ARMING THE SYSTEM) and with the backpack
properly worn (see WEARING THE PACK) the airbag can now be deployed.
1. Grasp the Deployment Handle (1c) and firmly pull downward.
2. The airbag will begin to deploy immediately.
3. The Inflation Unit will run for 6 seconds and then shut off.
REPACKING (FIGURE 5)
1. Before repacking, the airbag must be fully deflated.
2. To manually deflate the airbag:
a. Locate the Air Release Knob (1n).
b. Press and turn the Air Release Knob (1n) counter-clockwise to open the
valve, then compress the airbag to squeeze out the remaining air.
3. Locate the Airbag Pocket Zipper Pull (5a) and move it to the wearer's left side
of the pack.
4. Follow the illustrations to re-fold the airbag and place it into the Airbag
Pocket (1i).
5. Close the Main Cargo Compartment (1a)
6. Locate the Airbag Pocket Zipper Pull (5a), connect the zipper ends together
and zip closed.
7. Close the zipper all the way to the bottom of the wearer's right side of the
pack.
8. Close the hook and loop fastener tab over the red part of the Zipper (5b).
A
WARNING! It is imperative that nothing blocks the zipper or hook and
loop fastener for the airbag to fully deploy.
A
WARNING! Do not roll or twist the airbag while folding it.
A
WARNING! Do not pack airbag behind the Support Straps (9a) within
Airbag Pocket (1i).
A

3. The red System Status Light (1g) will come on then off again to signal the
system is turned off.
HOW TO REMOVE THE DETACHABLE AIRBAG SYSTEM (FIGURE 10)
1. Disarm the system (refer to DISARMING THE SYSTEM), open the Airbag
Pocket (1i), and detach all four of the numbered Airbag Attachment Hooks
(10a).
2. Open the Main Cargo Compartment (1a), the Inflation Unit (1j), and the
Deployment Handle Pocket (1b).
3. Detach the Deployment Handle (refer to Figure 9) and push the Deployment
Handle into the Airbag Pocket.
4. Remove the Inflation Unit while pulling the airbag and Deployment Handle
through the hole at the top of the Inflation Unit Compartment (1k)
HOW TO INSTALL THE DETACHABLE AIRBAG SYSTEM (FIGURE 10)
1. Reverse the steps from HOW TO REMOVE THE DETACHABLE AIRBAG
SYSTEM.
2. Attach all 4 of the Airbag Attachment Hooks (10a). Match the numbers on the
Airbag (1q) with the numbers on each of the Airbag Attachment Hooks (10a).
3. Close the Inflation Unit Compartment (1j), fold the airbag (refer to
REPACKING), and attach the Deployment Handle (Figure 8).
SPECIFIC WARNINGS!
A Install airbag before entering avalanche terrain. Use only with Alpride E1
Airbag system.
A Disarm the system and stow the Deployment Handle (1c) before riding a ski
lift, tram, airplane, helicopter, snowcat or vehicle and before entering small,
confined spaces.
A
Armed, with the Inflation Unit NOT running, the JetForce TOUR Backpack
does not affect either a transmitting or receiving avalanche beacon.
A When the JetForce TOUR's Inflation Unit is running, the system may interfere
with avalanche beacons.
A All avalanche beacons are very sensitive to electrical and magnetic influence.
To minimize interference, carry the beacon on the front side of your body,
maximizing the distance between the beacon and the JetForce Tour Inflation
Unit.
A
Do not store any items in the Airbag Pocket (1i). Small items might damage or
stop the Inflation Unit.
A Modifying the product in any way, using the design for unintended purposes,
or failing to read and follow any of the instructions may result in serious injury
or death.
A Disarm the JetForce TOUR and stow the Deployment Handle (1c) before
shipping or storing the device.
A Always check the Inflation Unit (1j) for a pulsing green light (1e) when
approaching avalanche terrain.
A As with all protective equipment, it is important to practice its use to ensure
that you are capable of using it properly when necessary.
A We strongly discourage acquiring second-hand equipment. To fully trust your
gear, you must know its history of use.
A Only charge the SuperCapacitors using the provided Micro USB Charging
Cable (1m).
A Do not submerge the system in water.
A Do not crush, puncture or subject the SuperCapacitors (1l) or Inflation Unit
(1j) to excessive mechanical shock or vibration.
A Do not subject the JetForce TOUR Backpack to temperatures higher than 55°
C [130°F].
A Do not attempt to disassemble the Inflation Unit or SuperCapacitors.
A
Physical damage to the JetForce TOUR system, Inflation Unit(1j), or
SuperCapacitors (1l) may result in non-function, excessive heat, or fire.
A The JetForce TOUR Backpack will not increase survivability outside of the
intended application and design.
A This pack should be used along with other avalanche safety gear including
an avalanche beacon, shovel and probe.
A
Do not allow this device or any other protective equipment to change your
perception about the dangers of avalanches.
TROUBLESHOOTING
In any system state (armed or charging), the JetForce TOUR provides com-
prehensive self-diagnosis. Warnings or errors are indicated by the Red AND
Orange System Status Lights (Figure 6 and 7):
To troubleshoot, follow these steps in order. Check for normal operation after
each step:
1. Turn the system off and turn it back on.
2. Connect the Micro USB Charging Cable (1m) to the USB Charging Port (1h)
and leave system connected until you see a blinking green Charge Status
Light (1e). Afterward disconnect the USB Charging Cable and arm the system
(refer to ARMING THE SYSTEM).
3. If you do not see a blinking green Charge Status Light (1e) contact your pack
manufacturer´s service center for assistance.
