Use of Non-Recommended<br />
Settings<br />
SKIERS REQUESTING SETTINGS NOT<br />
RECOMMENDED BY HEAD/TYROLIA<br />
The <strong>2010</strong>.1 1 HEAD/TYROLIA Release/Retention Adjustment<br />
Table is the only adjustment chart recommended<br />
for use by HEAD/TYROLIA dealers during the <strong>2010</strong>.11<br />
season.<br />
Some skiers may request settings different from those<br />
in the HEAD/TYROLIA Release/Retention Adjustment<br />
Table. Most of these concerns can be addressed by<br />
following the procedures for reclassifying skier type and<br />
for troubleshooting which follow the instructions for<br />
using the HEAD/TYROLIA Release/Retention Adjustment<br />
Table.<br />
HEAD/TYROLIA and the ISO/ASTM standards organizations<br />
do not recommend the use of release/retention<br />
settings outside of these tolerances, but skiers occasionally<br />
may request such settings. HEAD/TYROLIA recognizes<br />
a skier’s right to choose other settings, but if the<br />
skier requests settings outside of those derived from<br />
the normal procedures for reclassifying skier type and<br />
for trouble-shooting, the shop may either:<br />
1. Adjust the system to the setting derived from HEAD/<br />
TYROLIA Release/Retention Adjustment Table and<br />
instruct the skier on how to change the setting (if<br />
this done, make a note to this effect on the workshop<br />
or rental form), or<br />
2. Adjust the system to the skier’s individual request,<br />
but only if the technician notes on the workshop or<br />
rental form the reason the higher or lower setting<br />
was requested. Do not in any case adjust the system<br />
to a release/retention value higher than the maximum<br />
acceptable setting at the bottom of the HEAD/<br />
TYROLIA Release/Retention Adjustment Table. The<br />
customer must verify the request for the higher or<br />
lower settings by signing and dating the workshop or<br />
rental form by the reason noted next to the setting<br />
request. The skier must also read and sign a warning,<br />
release and indemnity agreement identical to the<br />
one printed on this page. In such cases, the system<br />
will only be indemnified if all other conditions of<br />
indemnification are met and the signed warning,<br />
release and indemnity agreement are attached to<br />
the completed work-shop or rental form.<br />
