The design will not cause any irritation or discomfort to the wearer.
y The e-cartridge is not re-usable. A used or damaged 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.
y In the event of a fall, it is possible to unscrew the e-cartridge to deflate the airbag
