Guideline Placement inside the hump The CDU Sensor and the e-cartridge are siutated in the concave protective cover of the hump via a velcro. Like this the components of the wireless leather suit airbag system are protected, cannot move and do not bother the pilot. All components have to be kept in the order they were originally placed.
Guideline Technical features The wireless airbag system uses an algorithm that can differentiate normal movements of the pilot from those of a fall. The CDU sensor (Crash Detection Unit) that is integrated into the suit analyzes the motion in context. When a shock or an abnormal movement is detected, the sensor analyzes the situation and activates the airbag if necessary.

Even if the airbag system is switched off it will consume a bit of energy. To recharge the system you must use the provided Helite USB cable. Only the cable is included, you have to plug it afterwards into a standard USB charger (5 volt computer USB port or mobile phone charger).
Guideline WHEN SHOULD THE AIRBAG SYSTEM BE SWITCHED OFF? The airbag system can be switched on or off. It is not necessary to switch it off every day. However, there are some situations in which you must switch off the airbag system: - When using different means of transport with your airbag system (vehicle, metro, tram, train, bus, aircraft, etc.) - During a long storage time (in winter for example).
