GIN Genie Race 3 - Manual (Page 41)

The materials used in the Genie Race 3 have been carefully selected for maximum durability.
Nevertheless, keep your harness clean and airworthy to ensure the longest possible period of safe
operation.
Care and maintenance
Don’t drag your harness over rough or rocky ground. Avoid unnecessary exposure to UV rays,
heat and humidity. Keep the folded harness in your rucksack when not in use.
Store all your equipment in a cool, dry place, and never put it away while damp or wet.
Regularly clean off dirt with a plastic bristled brush and/or a damp cloth. If the harness gets
exceptionally dirty, wash it with water and a mild soap. Make sure you first remove the entire
sub-components for example, rescue parachute etc. Allow the harness to dry naturally in a well
ventilated area away from direct sunlight. If your rescue parachute ever gets wet (e.g. in a water
landing) you must separate it from the harness, dry it and repack it before putting it back in its
separate outer container. Occasionally lubricate the zips and buckles with silicone spray, no more
than once a year.
After a hard landing you must check your harness for damage, pay close attention to the rescue
container and verify all of the attachments are secure.
