GIANT HELMETS 

OWNERS MANUAL

2.If your helmet is equipped

with Giant’s standard visor it
is attached to the helmet by 4
mounting pins at the
extremes of the visor (fig. 10).
To remove it, grasp the visor
firmly at the same point as
the pins on one side. Place
your other hand on the helmet
shell where the pins attach to
the shell. Pull the visor away
from the helmet until the pins
come free from the shell.
Repeat on the opposite side.

3.To replace the visor, center

the visor at the front of the
helmet then snap the pins
into the holes in the helmet
shell.

4.If your helmet is equipped

with Giant’s Center-punch™
visor, grasp the helmet with
one hand, and with the other
grasp the center of the visor.
Pull the visor away from the
helmet 

5.To re-attach the Center-

punch™ visor, align the post
at the back of the visor with
the receiver on the brow of
the helmet. Insert the post

into the receiver. Firmly push
the visor towards the helmet
until you feel the post click
into the locked position.
Check that the visor is fully
locked in position by lightly
pulling on the visor. The visor
should not pull out easily.

CLEANING

Helmets are made of materials
that can be easily damaged by
many household cleaners.
Petroleum-based solvents are
especially dangerous. They can
damage a helmet so that its
protective capabilities are
significantly reduced.

For best results, use only a soft
cloth or sponge, warm water and
mild soap to clean your helmet.

STORAGE

After each use, wipe excess dirt
off your helmet with a soft cloth.
If you clean it according to the
instructions above, allow it to air
dry and then store in a cool, dry
place. Excessive heat and direct
sunlight can damage your
helmet. Damaged helmets will
appear to have uneven or bubbly
surfaces.

REPLACEMENT PARTS

Contact your local Giant  Retailer
or call Giant’s Customer
Services department at 805-267-
4668 concerning replacement
parts or for answers to any

concerning Giant products.
