BY SUCH AN ACCIDENTAL ACTIVATION, IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT YOU STOW THE TRIGGER HANDLE IN THE
SHOULDER STRAP SLEEVE WITH THE COVERED ZIPPER, ESPECIALLY ON CHAIRLIFTS, IN GONDOLAS, IN OR
AROUND A HELICOPTER, THE BUS, TRAIN, AUTOMOBILE, ETC.
• THE SCOTT ALPRIDE E1 AIRBAG SYSTEM DOES NOT REPLACE CONVENTIONAL AVALANCHE RESCUE EQUIPMENT :
TRANSCEIVERS, SHOVELS AND PROBES SHOULD ALWAYS BE TAKEN ON OFF-PISTE TOURS.
• THE SCOTT ALPRIDE E1 AIRBAG SYSTEM HAS TO STAY CLEAN ALL TIME. IN CASE OF A SPOILED INFLATOR SYSTEM,
THE FUNCTION OF THE AIRBAG SYSTEM IS NOT GRANTED.
• DO NOT USE THE SCOTT ALPRIDE E1 WITH UNAUTHORIZED CARRYING SYSTEMS (BACKPACK, VEST, ETC.).
• THE ALPRIDE E1 AIRBAG SYSTEM IS ON OR OFF, IT HAS NO INFLUENCE ON AVALANCHE BEACONS. WHEN IT IS
INFLATING IT COULD INTERFERE WITH BEACONS. AVALANCHE BEACONS ARE VERY SENSITIVE TO ELECTRICAL
AND MAGNETIC INFLUENCES. TO MITIGATE ANY INTERFERENCE, CARRY THE BEACON ON THE FRONT SIDE OF
YOUR BODY TO INCREASE THE DISTANCE BETWEEN THE ALPRIDE E1 COMPRESSOR AND THE BEACON.
• THIS APPLIANCE CAN BE USED BY CHILDREN AGED FROM 8 YEARS AND ABOVE AND PERSONS WITH REDUCED PHYSICAL,
SENSORY OR MENTAL CAPABILITIES OR LACK OF EXPERIENCE AND KNOWLEDGE IF THEY HAVE BEEN GIVEN SUPERVISION
OR INSTRUCTION CONCERNING USE OF THE APPLIANCE IN A SAFE WAY AND UNDERSTAND THE HAZARDS INVOLVED.
• CHILDREN SHALL NOT PLAY WITH THE APPLIANCE.
• CLEANING AND USER MAINTENANCE SHALL NOT BE MADE BY CHILDREN WITHOUT SUPERVISION.

SUPERCAPACITORS

The E1 Avalanche Airbag System is the first avalanche airbag that does not use lithium-ion or lithium polymer batteries to
fuel the compressor's electric motor.
The E1 System uses its SuperCapacitors to store energy in the form of an electrostatic field. Unlike traditional batteries,
there is no need to create a chemical reaction to generate energy, allowing the E1 System to release its power faster.
The E1's SuperCapacitors offer several advantages over batteries. They are not sensitive to changes in temperature, deliv-
ering the same performance at -30 degrees C and +50 degrees C. This saves weight because, unlike batteries, there is no
need to boost the SuperCapacitors to guarantee outstanding performance at low temperatures.
While batteries tend to wear out after repeated charges, the SuperCapacitors stay strong. They are guaranteed for
500,000 charging cycles with a nearly infinite lifespan, clearly superior to the 3- to 5-year lifespan of the average battery.
What's more, the SuperCapacitors are considered passive electronic elements, like cameras for example, so there are no restric-
tions to travel, shipping or storage. This is a major advantage over traditional batteries and compressed gas cartridge systems.

THE RADIAL COMPRESSOR

The E1 System uses a radial compressor, similar to turbo compressors found in cars. This design allows for high-speed air
flow and inflation pressure equal to compressed air cartridge avalanche airbag systems.
2 x AA BATTERIES
The E1 SuperCap System uses two AA batteries for two primary purposes :
1- to recharge the SuperCapacitors
2- to guarantee that the SuperCapacitors keep their full power, compensating for their slow loss of charge and ensuring
several months of autonomy (see the section on autonomy).
