WARNING!
If you cannot adapt the helmet so as, with the closed belts, it shall not be pushed unless insignifi-
cantly to the front or to the back, DO NOT USE THIS HELMET! Replace that helmet with a smaller
model or with a different model from CASCO variety.
Do a test cycle.
If the helmet fits properly and the straps are adjusted correctly, do a short test cycle. Note the wearing
comfort and the fit of the helmet while cycling. If necessary, adjust the belts again in order to improve the
wearing comfort and stability.
B. INTERNAL SURFACES/ACCESSORIES
If you have a helmet with interchangeable fittings (interchangeable pin), please unfold them carefully from
their support elements (image 6). If your helmet has the supports at the level of the inferior edge, in that
section, the winter protections can be fixed at the level of the ears (image 7). As far as it concerns other
winter fittings and other accessories, please follow the attached special instructions of use. Certain bike
helmets manufactured by CASCO are designed to be used with CASCO visors, or they are delivered with
a CASCO visor. Before fixing the helmet, the CASCO visor must be lifted and anchored in the locking me-
chanism (image 8c). In order to replace the CASCO visor, it is necessary to carefully open the push buttons
inside the helmet (image 8a). Subsequently, the CASCO visor can be disassembled by pressing the button
through the lateral openings at the level of the helmet (image 8b). Some bike helmets manufactured by
CASCO are equipped with CASCO MyStyle bands. It is possible to properly replace the CASCO MyStyle
bands (image 9). If CASCO offers a rain protector for your helmet, you must disassemble the MyStyle bands,
apply the rain protection, taking into consideration the form from the level of your helmet, and fix the res-
pective protection by installing the MyStyle bands again.
C. DURATION OF USE
The maximum duration if correctly stored (see E.), and without use is of 8 years from the production date
(see the self-adhesive label inside the helmet). Depending on the intensity of use, referring to the safety
aspects, it is necessary to replace the bike helmets after 3-5 years from the first use. The protection effect
of a helmet is not guaranteed anymore at complete intensity, if it has undergone a hard hit or an impact. A
helmet damaged in this way cannot effectively protect your head against injuries anymore. Even if there is
no highlighted damage on the outside, the helmet must be replaced. The same requirement applies if the
helmet does not fit correctly. Also, after the expiry of the recommended duration of use, even if there is no
visible damage, the replacement of the helmet is necessary.
CHECK YOUR HELMET PERIODICALLY IN ORDER TO IDENTIFY VISIBLE FAULTS! In this context, mild scratches
do not diminish the protection effect of your helmet.
D. CHANGES TO THE HELMET, CLEANING
WARNING!
The modifications of the helmet, especially the appliance of paints, self-adhesive labels, cleaning
solutions, chemical substances and diluents can significantly affect the safety of your helmet. The
installation of video cameras at the level of the helmet, of lights and other accessories produced
by third parties determines the inapplicability of the certificate CE for the check of the built pattern.
Use only substances and accessories or spare parts approved by us.
Clean your helmet with CASCO cleaning solutions, or with water, delicate soap and a soft cloth.
For the disinfection/freshening of internal surfaces, use the freshening solution for CASCO helmets.
E. STORAGE AND TRANSPORTATION
After each use, leave your helmet to air-dry, and keep it in a cold, dry place. The temperatures higher than 50
degrees Celsius (among others, also the direct exposure to sunrays, in the back of glazed surfaces, in black
coloured bags or luggage carriers) can significantly damage the helmet. CASCO helmets equipped with the
additional mention “Monocoque-Inmold” has a higher resistance at high temperatures of up to 100°C. For
the storage and transportation in protected conditions, we recommend your CASCO Softbox.
WARNING! Do not use heat damaged helmets!
