WARNING!
If no service or recharge operation has been conducted after two
years or 500 hours of functioning from the purchase date, there is
the possibility that the System will not function inside the Envelope
of Protection.
WARNING!
There are NO user serviceable parts inside the System. Under no
circumstances should users attempt to open, service, disassemble or
modify the System. Do not remove or change the internal battery. Any

or an authorized Alpinestars' Tech-Air® Service Centre. Severe injury
or damage may result otherwise.
Lifespan and disposal
The materials and components used by Alpinestars in the System are selected to maximize
durability.
Properly caring for, including regularly servicing and updating your System, will help ensure
the longest possible lifespan.
Notwithstanding in the long run the System, similar to any product, has a limited lifespan as
it is subject to natural degradation and breakdown of materials and/or components through
factors such as use, wear and tear, improper care for your System, incorrect storage and/or
common environmental conditions – all of which affects the practical lifespan of products.
For safety issues and to ensure that the above factors have not reduced the integrity or
product performance levels, Alpinestars strongly recommend replacing your System 10
years from the date it was first worn.
WARNING!
The internal high pressure gas inflator has a limited duration, and
must be changed approximately every 4 years. Before the use and
during the periodic inspection service, the expiration date must
be verified and in case the inflator is over 4 years old, it must be
substituted.
