CONSUMER SERVICE: VOLUNTARY RECALL OF SKI BINDINGS
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE:
SALOMON USA IS VOLUNTARILY RECALLING THE TOE COMPONENTS OF CERTAIN MODELS OF ATOMIC “Evox 2.8” OR “FFG 8”.
SKI BINDINGS MANUFACTURED BETWEEN JULY 2008 AND OCTOBER 2008.
In certain circumstances, the toe components of these bindings may not fully secure the ski boot to the binding, possibly causing the binding to release inadvertently, posing a falling risk to the skier.

The bindings subject to the recall bear a production date code, ending in the number “8” (for 2008), found on the center plate where the toe of the ski boot contacts the toe component of the binding.
