5.5. PRACTICAL PRODUCT LIFESPAN
Even if the recommended maintenance
and yearly self inspections are observed
and it is handled correctly, the LiTRIC®
System has a maximum service life of 10
years from the date of manufacture or 50
deployments.
The service life cannot be accurately
determined, because it depends on
various factors, such ashow frequently it
is used, how it is handled, climatic
conditions, etc.
The following table is a guideline for estimating potential service life:
USAGE FREQUENCY IN DAYS
Extremely frequent
120+ days/season
Very frequent
91 to 120 days/season
Frequent
41 to 90 days/season
Occasional
Up to 40 days/season
5.6. CLEANING
Only use water to clean the LiTRIC® Avalanche Airbag. Never use detergents or
cleaning solutions. Once cleaned, the LiTRIC® Avalanche Airbag must fully dry at room
temperature before its next use. Otherwise, the system could become iced up.
