Features
Once closed, the Tech-Air® 5 Plasma activates automatically thanks to a separate internal magnetic sensor.
The LED display on the lower part of the chest gives a visual indication of the system's operating status and triggers a short haptic vibration (1 second) to warn the rider and confirm activation. The system generates a long vibration (3 seconds) when it is switched off or if a red status LED lights up.
The Tech-Air® 5 PLASMA offers three driving modes: STREET, OFF-ROAD and RACE.
Once the system has been correctly switched on, the user can easily switch from one mode to another by pressing the button on the LED display for two seconds.
A steady green LED lights up on the driving mode indicator, indicating the active mode. The pilot can simply browse through the modes until it is selected. The system triggers a short vibration (1 second) when the mode is changed.
The Tech-Air® 5 PLASMA features a fully modular construction, allowing the system to be quickly disassembled for maintenance and cleaning with a soft, slightly damp cloth.
