WARNING! No protective device, including the Tech-Air® Street airbag system,
can provide protection against all possible sources of injury and therefore cannot
provide complete protection against injures.
WARNING! Wearing the Tech-Air® airbag system is not a substitute for wearing
other protective motorcycling clothing and gear. To provide full potential
protection, the Tech-Air® airbag system must always be worn in conjunction with
suitable motorcycling gear and apparel that covers the rider from head to toe,
including a helmet, protectors, boots, gloves, and other appropriate protective
equipment.
Envelope of Protection
Crashes Where a Vehicle Strikes a Stationary Motorcycle:
Arrival Speed
From 25km/h (15mph)
Impact Angle
ANY
Valid for both rider and passenger
Crashes Where a Motorcycle Strikes a Vehicle or Obstacle (Figure 11):
From 25km/h (15mph)
Arrival Speed
to 50km/h (31mph)
Impact Angle (Fig 11)
From 60° to 120°
The above parameters are valid for both the rider and passenger.
60°

60°
IMPORTANT!
If the speed of the vehicle is less than 25km/h, the system may not deploy at
the time of the collision, but may deploy if the rider or passenger suddenly falls from the
motorcycle after the impact.
IMPORTANT!
Figure 11 outlines the envelope where the Tech-Air® Street airbag system is
expected to inflate before the user's body contacts an obstacle. At speeds above 25km/h
the system will deploy regardless of the impact angle, but outside the envelope the airbag
may not be fully inflated before there is contact between the obstacle and the user.

Loss of Control Crashes
A Loss of Control Crash often results in the motorcycle falling over during riding. This
commonly happens when tire grip on the roadway is lost during a turn or heavy braking.
These are often similar to crashes in racing (known as "low-side" crashes).
WARNING! The user does not need to be involved in a crash for the system to
deploy. For example, the system may deploy if the user a falls while wearing the
system, such as when dismounting from the motorcycle. These types of "non-
riding" deployments are not failures of the system.
Motorcycle Type
The Tech-Air® airbag system can be utilized, by riders or passengers, on any type of
motorcycle, including electric motorcycles.
Off-Road Riding
The Tech-Air
airbag system in Street Mode may be used off road IN A LIMITED CAPACITY
TM
riding on gravel roads only.
For the purpose of using the Tech-Air
TM
road is:
• An unpaved road surfaced with gravel.
• Has a minimum width of 4m (13ft).
• Has no gradients +/-30%.
• Has no ruts, steps or holes greater than 50cm (19.5") in depth.
IMPORTANT!
The chances of falling are notably higher when riding off-road, particularly
when a rider is inexperienced. Even when stopped, a fall may cause the Tech-Air® airbag
system to deploy, leaving the user without protection until the system is returned for
recharging (See Section 16).
18-2 Limitations of Use
WARNING! The Tech-Air® Race airbag system in Street Mode is to be used ONLY
for motorcycling within the conditions and limitations delineated above. The
system is NOT for use in:
• Any racing or competitive events;
• Enduro, Motocross, or Supermoto events;
• Motorcycle stunts; or
• ANY non-motorcycling activities.
WARNING! Due to shocks, movement and/or other input detected and/or received
by the system while in use, although unlikely the system may deploy even though
there is no crash-event.
WARNING! Depending on the motorcycle type, for example a scooter or trials bike,
it cannot be guaranteed that the system will inflate before the user collides with
parts or accessories of the motorcycle.
WARNING! Wearing the Tech-Air® Race airbag system in Street Mode is not a
substitute for wearing other protective motorcycling clothing and gear. To offer
full potential protection the system must always be worn in conjunction with
suitable motorcycling apparel that covers the rider from head to toe, including a
helmet, boots, gloves, and other appropriate protective equipment.
