After an inflation, the airbag system is reusable. You simply need to replace the Inflator (gas generator) and to follow the after-inflation process hereunder in order to make sure that your airbag system is not damaged.

Once inflated, the pressure in the airbag cushion will slowly lower. However, the airbag will stay inflated in order to prevent any additional risk after the fall. On the In&box, the “Inflator” LED on the upper left will become red, indicating that the Inflator is empty.

To change the In&motion airbag system correctly, go to the dashboard of the “My In&box” application and click on the tab at the top right as shown in the image. You will only have to follow the 4 steps of changing the Inflator as detailed on the screen.

Some warnings regarding the inflator before starting the process: 

• CAUTION: only Inflators supplied by IN&MOTION (references: IMI 2368 or IMI 7112) are certified and ensure the correct operation of the IN&MOTION airbag system. Under no circumstances should other references be used.
• The Inflator must be handled with care, by the tube. Do not drop.
• Do not place your fingers on the connector at the end of the Inflator (blue or black part depending on the Inflator).
• Do not connect the inflator to the connector before it is screwed into the airbag vest.

In case of damage or anomaly, do not use your airbag product and contact your local reseller.

To carry out maintenance on your airbag product, contact your dealer.

The inflators can be ordered on our website « Shop» or to your nearest dealer.

1. CHECK THE INTEGRITY OF THE AIRBAG PRODUCT AND PLASTIC PARTS

• Check that the airbag vest does not have holes, tears, broken threads or signs of abrasion and that the Plastic parts do not show bleaching areas.
• Check that the back protector protection is not damaged (no holes nor tears).

2. ReMOVE THE USED INFLATOR

WARNING: the Inflator can be hot after inflation.

Warning, the inflator needs to be handled with care! This process needs to be done in a clean environment. Wash your hands before and after replacing the Inflator.

• Remove the In&box and access to the Inflator by opening the zipper on the back of the airbag vest.
• Unclip the Inflator upwards from its housing. To do this, pull the Inflator upwards to remove it from its housing.

Caution: do not force or pull the cable or connector, as this could damage it.

If you have an Inflator IMI 2368

• Slide the tool onto the connector.
• Using the tool*, press down on the 2 black tabs on the connector.
• Hold them down and pull gently to disconnect the connector.

If the tool is not on your product, use your fingers to press down on the 2 black tabs. If it does not come off, press one tab and then the other until it comes off.

If you have an Inflator IMI 7112

• Pinch the black ring and pull to disconnect the connector.

• Unscrew the used Inflator.

At this time, the remaining gas contained in the airbag cushion will be released automatically.

3. Control the airbag cushion

• Screw the inflation adapter provided with your Inflator in the place of the Inflator.

• Using a pump or compressor, inflate the airbag product to 0,3 bars and check that it stays inflated at least 5 seconds. Any pneumatic inflation system may be suitable for this operation.
• While the airbag product inflated, check the integrity of the fabric parts and that the seams are not fraying. If it does not inflate or that it deflates quickly, do not use your airbag product and contact your local reseller.
• Remove the inflation system, unscrew the inflator adapter and completely remove the air contained in the airbag cushion.

4. Install THE NEW INFLATOR

Please note! There are two types of inflator, depending on the model of your airbag product.
