PRECAUTIONS FOR USING THE CARTRIDGE
• The cartridge is for single use only and must be replaced after each inflation with
a new cartridge of the same reference.
• Use only Helite brand cartridges available from your dealer or on the helite.com
website.
• Gas cartridges are considered hazardous materials and should be kept out of
reach of children and used with care.
• Never plug in the cartridge until it is completely screwed into its slot.
• If rust stains or signs of deterioration appear on the cartridge, replace it immedia-
tely and contact your dealer or Helite at sav@helite.com.
• The cartridge should be stored at temperatures between 0°C (32°F) and 45°C
(113°F). It should be stored away from moisture and light.
• If the cartridge has been stored at temperatures below 0°C (32°F), we recommend
keeping it at ambient temperature for several minutes before using your airbag
vest to avoid malfunction of the airbag.
• Do not expose the cartridge for a long period of time to high temperatures (in full
sun in a car, near a radiator, etc.) near a surface or flammable objects.
• Do not hit the cartridge, do not drop it, do not cut or pierce it, and do not throw
it into fire.
• Caution, the gas inside the cartridge is compressed to a very high pressure.
• Find more information about the annual verification of the cartridge on page 37,
its recycling on page 38 and its warranty on page 38.

Protective foams (9 mm)
They are integrated in the airbag vest on the front and rear. They allow to absorb
the shocks and to distribute the force of the impacts. Caution, you must not use the
airbag vest if the protective foams have been removed.

USB cable
It allows to recharge the battery of the airbag vest CDU electronic card (see page

to a standard USB charger (5 VDC).
