AREA OF USE
Hövding 3 is designed to protect the head and should
only be activated when cycling. Hövding is only
intended for cycling (not for other activities such as
horse back riding, moped riding, skiing, roller skates,
skateboarding, etc.). The term cycling here means
riding a bicycle in an urban environment or on a
country road (not extreme cycling such as mountain
biking, BMXing, downhill cycling, racing, trick cycling
or similar).
Hövding is only intended for use with two wheeled
bicycles (standard models), including electric assisted
bicycles. Hövding is not intended for use with spe-
cialist bicycles (such as unicycles, tandem bicycles,
recumbent bicycles, cargo bikes or other electric
assisted vehicles, etc.).
WHO CAN WEAR IT?
Hövding is approved for head sizes of (circumference)
52–59 cm (20.5–23.2") and for neck measurements
up to a maximum of 45 cm (17.7") in circumference.
Hövding is approved for cyclists from the age of 15
and up.
CHARGING THE BATTERY
To save the battery when Hövding is not in use, all
units have been set to sleep mode in the factory. After
Hövding is removed from its packaging for the first
time, the battery must be fully charged (with USB
cable). After charging, Hövding will function normally.
You can also press the multifunction button (15) to
check the battery level (Hövding then comes out of
sleep mode).
Always fully charge the battery when charging
Hövding (this takes up to two hours). Charge Hövding
by inserting the accompanying USB cable into the
USB port (14) on the underside of the rear casing (4).
Then plug the USB cable into an external charger
with an USB port and charge via a wall outlet. Close
the lid over the USB port after charging is complete.
Hövding's battery lasts for 14-16 hours of use.
Check the battery level by pressing the multifunction
button (15) on the underside of the rear casing (4). The
back LED (16) on the underside of the rear casing will
then indicate the battery level as follows:
•
Solid green light – over 50% battery life left
•
Flashing green light – 20–50% battery life left
•
Solid red light – less than 20% battery life left
Hövding must not be activated when charging.
Hövding should not be charged at temperatures
below 5°C (41°F). The battery in Hövding is not
exchangeable.
ADJUSTING THE FIT
Adjust the fit using the adjustment wheel (Boa) (6) by
turning it clockwise until you get a tight fit directly
against the neck during use. For a larger size, pull
out the adjustment wheel and stretch Hövding to
the desired size. Then lock the adjustment wheel by
pressing it down again. Place Hövding around your
neck with the rear casing (4) down towards your back
(between your shoulder blades) and the zipper (9)
centred at the front.
FITTING THE COVER ONTO THE COLLAR
Fit the included basic cover or seasonal cover (sold
separately) before first use. Hövding must always be
used with either a basic cover or a seasonal cover.
Putting on the included basic cover: Start by laying
the collar (1) in its fully extended position. Attach the
longest zipper on the basic cover, with the zipper on
the inside (7) of the collar. Then adjust the collar to the
right size using the adjustment wheel (Boa) (6) (see
ADJUSTING THE FIT). Next, thread the basic cover
over the rear casing and connect the other zipper on
the outside of the collar (3).
Removing the basic cover: Unzip the two zippers on
the outside and inside of the collar and then remove
the basic cover. Watch an instructional video at
hovding.com.
For safety reasons it is not allowed to use modified or
self-designed covers. The Hövding covers are tested
to work correctly in the event of an accident.

STORAGE
There is a hanging device (8) on the inside of the
collar, which you can use to hang up your Hövding
when it is not in use. Hövding should not be stored
at temperatures below -20°C (-4°F) or above 60°C
(140°F). When storing Hövding for longer periods, be
sure to put it into sleep mode (see SLEEP MODE).
SLEEP MODE
When storing Hövding for a longer period of time
(several weeks), put Hövding into sleep mode by hold-
ing down the multifunction button (15) for 5 seconds,
until the back LED goes out.

HÖVDING'S SERIAL NUMBER
The serial number (5) is located on the inside of the
collar folded into a pocket by the arrow with the text
"Serial Number" (M + 9 digits). The serial number
will not be visible if there is a basic cover or seasonal
cover fitted.
MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE
Regularly check to ensure that Hövding does not
have any visible damage; if this occurs, contact your
retailer or our customer service team at hovding.com
for further information. Do not use Hövding if it is
visibly damaged. Hövding must not be repaired, sewn
in, disassembled or altered.
Hövding can withstand rainy weather but must not be
submerged or exposed to water in any other way. Do
not dry Hövding with an external heat source such as
a hair dryer or in a microwave oven. Hövding cannot
be washed. Any stains can be removed by gently
rubbing the collar with a damp cloth. The basic cover
is washable (see washing instructions on its inside).
HAIRSTYLES, HEADGEAR AND HEADPHONES
Most hairstyles and many headgears do not pose any
problem for an inflation of the airbag. For information
about hairstyles and headgears that are not recom-
mended to use with Hövding, visit hovding.com.
Small in-ear headphones can be used with Hövding.
For safety reasons, cycling with headphones is
however not recommended, as there is a risk that you
will not hear signals from the traffic or signals emitted
by Hövding.
FLYING WITH HÖVDING
Visit hovding.com for current information.
WHEN DOES HÖVDING PROVIDE PROTECTION?
Hövding will react and inflate in response to move-
ments that lies outside the programmed normal
cycling pattern (by the cyclist when in an accident).
The airbag in Hövding reaches full inflation within
about one tenth of a second (0.1 second). If impact
to the head occurs before Hövding has reacted and
managed to fully inflate, Hövding will not provide
adequate protection. Examples of such situations in-
clude objects that fall from above directly down onto
the cyclist's head, incidents where the cyclist cycles
into a tree branch at head level and incidents in which
a cyclist collides directly with a flat-fronted vehicle.
Hövding cannot guarantee full protection against
sharp objects.
In exceptional cases, Hövding may inflate in incidents
that are not considered accidents. A safety margin has
been built into the product so that Hövding will more
likely react than not (better for Hövding to register
one accident too many than one too few). As soon as
Hövding is activated, it compares the cyclist's move-
ment pattern with the programmed movement pattern
200 times per second. Thousands of tests have been
made in order to determine what is a normal cycling
movement pattern. Hövding can interpret movements
that differ from this pattern as an impending accident
and will in such cases inflate in order to protect the
cyclist.
AFTER INFLATION
An inflated Hövding cannot (due to safety reasons)
be reused but should (just like a traditional bicycle
helmet) be replaced with a new one after an accident.
LIFE SPAN
Expected lifetime for Hövding is circa 5 years, de-
pending on the frequency of use.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
•
Hövding should only be activated if it is fitted cor-
rectly around the neck and if the cyclist is sitting
on their bicycle (see CYCLING WITH HÖVDING).
•
Do not cover any of the three split seams (2) on
Hövding; for example, with a scarf, hood, etc.
•
When Hövding reaches a temperature of below
-10 °C (14 °F), it will emit a warning signal (read
more about Hövding's signals at hovding.com)
indicating that the temperature is too low and that
