Warning notice (Fig. 16): The helmet can be damaged by
contact with hydrocarbons (Fig. 17), cleaning fluids (Fig. 18),
paints (Fig. 19), decals (Fig. 20), or other external influences
(Fig. 21).
This helmet represents the best possible, state-of-the-art
head protection against external damage. However, it cannot
guarantee that no injuries will occur. Our helmets meet the
European directive 89/686/EEC and European Regulation
2016/425 beginning on 21/04/2018, as well as the European
standard shown on the back of this brochure, and thus bear the
CE seal. They are also certified in part – to the extent indicated
on the helmet – according to additional international standards.
As part of those standards, the helmets are tested for shock
absorbance, stripping, chin strap stability, side stability,
