The affected airbag systems of generation 3.0 have a neon orange deployment handle. To be checked are the Mammut RAS and PAS systems, as well as the products under the Snowpulse Highmark brand and licensees such as Dakine, Thule, Rip Curl, etc., which are equipped with the Mammut Airbag System 3.0. All Mammut and Snowpulse systems of generation 2.0 with a red handle are not affected.
If the airbag balloon is not correctly attached to the airbag inflation system, the airbag may in some cases lose volume too quickly after deployment. As a result, the functionality of the airbag may be impaired in the event of an avalanche burial.
If the installation error described in the instructions is detected, the affected airbag system may no longer be used and must be returned immediately to Mammut customer service for replacement. Click here for a detailed description on the Mammut website.
