TEXTILE PARTS - CLEANING
THE TEXTILES
The Varial make it easy for you to appreciate
fully the performance of your helmet.
The parts in contact with the skin are made
in a fabric that is guaranteed to feel pleasant,
to absorb perspiration well and to resist wear
satisfactorily. We treat surfaces to limit the
risk of mould and bacteria.
WARNING!
Although they are selected
for their quality of resistance and satis-
factory wear, all the interior padding is subject
to normal wear depending on use and care
and maintenance, the length of use and also
the degree of acidity of your perspiration. If
you note any wear, we advise you to replace
the interior padding in order to keep your
helmet perfectly clean and comfortable. Your
SHARK supplier can propose you with repla-
cement parts and also offer you cheek pads
of different thicknesses and densities, should
the standard selection not correspond to the
contours of your face.
CLEANING THE INTERIOR
The interior textile parts are washable; it
is important to follow the instructions below
scrupulously to avoid damaging them:
The cheek pads and head section must be
hand washed in warm, soapy water (about
30°).
Do not use aggressive detergents but
either a product for delicate materials in
low dilution or household soap.
It is essen-
tial to dry textile and foam parts completely
before using them. They must be dried at
room temperature. Never iron textile parts.
For parts with a leather appearance or textiles
attached to safety elements, use a slightly
damp sponge or cloth and household soap
and rinse with clean water.
Avoid allowing
too much water to come into contact with
polystyrene parts.
WARNING!
It is essential to ensure
that all interior parts are perfectly dry
before using the helmet.
