missing, broken, or showing signs of wear.

Installation
Salomon bindings are installed 3 ways. “À la carte” bindings are installed by drilling holes into the surface
of the ski with the aid of a Salomon jig. Pilot Systems require no jigs and are simply secured to pre-drilled
holes on a premounted Salomon interface. Smartrak Systems can require a combination of these two tech-
niques. Please refer to the specific instructions in this Manual.

A S patible. Unless a binding is specifically designed for use with both junior
and adult norm boot soles, adult and junior systems cannot be combined,
e.g., junior boots with adult bindings or vice versa. If the system passes
this test, mark “Pass” (√) on the Workshop Form for “Test of Boot-
Binding Compatibility.”
If you are not sure that the boot complies with standards or if you are not
sure that the system components are compatible, see Troubleshooting.
Lateral
Secure the ski. Hit the forefoot area of the boot with an object that will not
damage the boot, such as a rubber hammer. Fig. A Use sufficient force
to move the boot off-center, but not hard enough to release the system.
The boot should move off-center at least 5 mm and return to center
within 2 mm of its original position.
Vertical
Depress the heel lever while pulling forward on the upper cuff of the boot
until the boot heel lifts at least 5 mm. Fig. S Release both hands simul-
taneously. The boot should return to the ski quickly and smoothly. This
inspection can be performed either manually or by using a mechanical
testing device. If a testing device is used, follow the recommendations of Reference

Mechanical Inspection
It is a requirement* for Salomon indemnification that all ski/binding/boot systems be verified using a force
or torque measuring device.**
A previously damaged binding component or boot may break during the added stress of mechanical testing.
Consumers should be advised of this possibility prior to any mechanical testing of their equipment.

this purpose (such as SIDAS) (except Symbio and Rear Entry).
