ATTENTION
• Electronic or magnetic objects can
interfere with avalanche transceivers. To
minimize the chances of this happening,
always wear your transceiver on the front
of your torso, leaving plenty of space
between your avalanche transceiver and
the LiTRIC System.
• Pack the LiTRIC backpack in such a way
that no sharp or pointy items can damage
the LiTRIC fan (A), the LiTRIC airbag (B) or
the airbag compartment (K).
• When strapping on ice axes, ice tools or ski
poles, make sure these have a tip protector
or sheath in place.

• The air intake zone (G) for the LiTRIC
Avalanche Airbag must never be
obstructed; air must be able to freely enter
the system at all times. Do not pack any
items, such as a jacket, into or onto the
LiTRIC backpack in such a way that it
covers the air intake zone
• Do not attach any items to the LiTRIC
backpack in such a way that they block the
airbag compartment, otherwise they could
interfere with the deployment of the airbag.
• Do not attach skis to the sides of the
LiTRIC backpack. Skis strapped to the
sides could interfere with the inflation of
the LiTRIC airbag.
