ADvICES
WARNING
No helmet can protect the wearer against all possible
impacts.
For maximum protection, the helmet must fit firmly on
the head, and all retention straps must be securely
fastened. With the chinstrap comfortably but firmly
adjusted, it should not be possible, in most cases, for
the helmet to be removed from the head when pulled
at the rear in an upward direction.
The helmet is designed to be retained by a strap
under the chin.
The helmet may be used with glasses.
No attachments should be made to the helmet except
those recommended by the helmet manufacturer. Do
not drill or cut the shell.
The helmet is designed to absorb shock by partial
destruction of the shell and liner. This damage may
not be visible. Therefore if it subjected to a severe
blow, the helmet should be replaced even if it is
apparently undamaged.
The liner is essential to the intended performance of
the helmet.
The helmet may be damaged and rendered
ineffective by petroleum products, cleaning agents,
paints, adhesives, etc., without the damage being
visible to the user. Use only warm soapy water to clean
the helmet surface.
VISION
When riding a motorcycle, your life could depend on
a clear vision. Keep it unhindered by observing theses
basic rules:
• Use only genuine face shields
• Tinted face shields are for daytime use only
• Always keep your face shield clean scratch free
• Always keep your field of vision unobstructed
FASTENING
Your helmet will be useless if it’s too big or not properly
fastened. Always buy a helmet to your exact size and
always fasten it properly.
MOdIFICATIONS
Never modify your helmet in any way. Modifications
could result in lowering the effectiveness of your
helmet.
dAMAGEd HELMET
When your helmet sustains a severe shock, part of its
structure and lining may have been deteriorated by
absorbing the energy of the impact. These damages
may not be visible to the eye. In this case, do not
hesitate to replace it.
CARE ANd MAINTENANCE
Clean the outside and inside of your helmet regularly.
Use a soft cloth and warm or slightly soapy water.
NEVER USE GAS OIL, SOLVENTS, PETROL OR OTHER
AGGRESSIVE PRODUCTS.
The padding is removable to make it easy to clean.
Again, only use warm or slightly soapy water. Hand
wash and drip dry.
To clean the visor (shield), dip it in lukewarm soapy
water. Wipe it in a lint free cloth from the top to the
bottom avoiding any circular motion.
After correctly cleaning the vents and the visor
mechanism, it is a good idea to lubricate them from
time to time with white or silicone grease to maximize
their durability.
STORAGE
After washing your helmet, store it inside a bag, in a
dry temperate place. Avoid storing your helmet for an
extended period in a place exposed to strong light.

dURABILITY
As time goes by, some wearing marks can appear
on safety elements of your helmet, such as: wearing
or fraying of the strap, malfunction of the buckle,
cracking or crumbling of the inner liner, cracking of
the shell,… In this case, contact your dealer to check
or replace your helmet.
