*Safety goggles are an optional accessory and are not delivered with the helmet 

unless you have purchased a helmet configuration with safety goggles.

ATTACHING THE SAFETY GOGGLES*

Picture 22

If using safety goggles (sold separately) you can secure them by using two rubber 

bands on the back of the helmet (see number 1 on picture 21):

1

  Unfasten the rubber bands from the inside of the shell

2

  Place the goggles around the helmet

3

  Fasten again the rubber bands around the goggle strap

   Warning:

When wearing safety goggles on a helmet with preinstalled internal goggles, the 

internal goggles must be in standby position!

When using safety goggles, be sure to use safety goggles that comply at least to EN 

166 (in accordance to helmet norms EN 16471:2014 and EN 16473:2014).
