It is highly recommended that the System always be used together with a protective outer
garment, as the System is NOT abrasion resistant. The User should choose a protective
outer garment that, when worn over the System, does not cause discomfort and does not
prevent the correct functioning or inflation of the System.
The System can be used with any protective garment that covers the upper body and that
is designed for motorcycle riding, provided that the garment has sufficient space to allow for the expansion of the Airbag after the deployment.
