11. Important principles
• The device must be switched on at the GROUND ZERO landing location or at take-off location; never in an airplane or other airborne
transportation.
• The unit is functional (armed) upon the altitude lock release at a height of 450 m (1,475 ft) for the m
or 900 m (2,950 ft) for the m
• Airborne aircraft must not descend below the landing location altitude plus 40 m (130 ft), once it has already exceeded this altitude.
• If a jump was abnormally long, more than 1.5 hours, switch the device off and on again.
• If you land outside the airport, or if leaving the airport to later return, switch the device off during any transport, and back on again before
the next jump.
• If you accidentally land at a place situated approximately 30 m (100 ft) higher or lower than the selected landing area, switch the device
off after landing and turn it back on before the next jump.
• Maintain a safe altitude to open the main parachute. Avoid dropping into the activation zone. Avoid the risk of opening the reserve
parachute along with the main one.
• For failure-free operation of the system, having the correct pilot parachute according to the manufacturer's packaging is necessary. The
closing loop must be stretched by a force of at least 50 N.
• When using a performance parachute, check the GRAVITY index.
• When aborting a jump, switch off the m
(2,500 ft/min) when landing.
• Avoid proximity to sources of powerful electromagnetic radiation, such as radar, GSM transmitters, radios, etc.
