Nordicalpine 18-1918-19 the FASTEST CHOICE 5168-1K EO 2.0 to a GOOD BOOT CARE Size Run GUIDE 36-48 collection NordicAlpine 18-1918-19 THE FASTEST CHOICE 5168-1K EO 2.0 TO A GOOD BOOT CARE size run GUIDE 36-48 1 FOR SKIING ONLY This boot was designed to be the ultimate XC racing ski boot. • The boot is designed for maximum skiing performance. • We use carbon parts, which have been shaped to create the perfect balance between performance and fit. • Carbon adds stiffness and support where it’s most needed, and is extremely lightweight – but needs special care, particularly when not out on the trails. 2 WHEN NOT ON THE TRAIL, ALWAYS USE OVERSHOES Always use the boots together with the overshoes when not skiing. • Direct contact with concrete, asphalt, ice, sand, rock, stairs and any sharp objects can damage, even break the carbon outsole. 3 DO NOT BEND OR TWIST THE BOOT BY HAND Never bend or twist the boots by hand. • Extreme bending or twisting of an empty boot (as shown in the figure) can result in damage, even breakage of the carbon elements. • Always put the boot on to get a feel for its remarkable flex characteristics. 4 DO NOT KNOCK THE BOOTS TOGETHER Before stepping into the ski binding, clean the carbon sole carefully, by hand. • Similarly, clean the snow and dirt from the sole cleats by hand or with a ski pole. • Do not tap or knock the boots against each other or any other hard or sharp surfaces. 5 5 kg 5 kg 5 kg TRANSPORT BOOTS WITH CARE During transport, always make sure not to place heavy bags or other heavy objects on top of the boots. • This could damage the carbon cuff or the car- bon outsole. HELPFUL HINTS FOR PROPER USE AND CARE TREAT YOUR BOOTS WITH CARE | Clean boots with a soft, moist cloth or soft brush and water. • Never use chemical cleaning agents nor wash in a machine. FOR LONGER PRODUCT LIFE | Boots should be cleaned on a regular basis. • Boots should be dried after each use to prevent the build-up of odours. DRYING THE BOOTS | Dry at room temperature, without the aid of an external heat source. • Stuff boots with old newsprint; place at a safe distance from a mild source of heat – never in direct contact with any heat source; remove wet newsprint and repeat.
