cable is included, you can plug it into any standard USB charger.

it needs to be installed on the motorcycle fork (see page 23). The fork sensor has an
autonomy of around 5 years (not rechargeable).

f. 3 bracelets, 2 screws, 1 Allen key and 1 shim: you need these elements to install the
fork sensor on the motorcycle (see page 23 for first use).

2. General information

y Helite airbags are worn like a normal vest when riding.
y Helite airbags offer a high level of protection when activated. The airbag effectively
absorbs shocks and stabilizes the body from the head to the bottom of the back,
thus reducing the risk of over bending the spinal column.
y This PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) contains no known allergenic substances.
The design will not cause any irritation or discomfort to the wearer.
y The e-cartridge is not re-usable. A used or damaged e-cartridge will have to be
recycled or disposed in accordance with your country's legislation.
y The airbag sheaths may get damaged or pierced during a fall if they hit a sharp
object.
