• Do not use the size adjustment system as a handle for
carrying.
• Do not paint or varnish the helmet, and do not glue anything
to it. Paint, varnish, and adhesives may contain components
which affect the stability of the helmet and thus its ability to
protect.
• Do not make any changes to the helmet shell. Never drill into
the helmet shell or screw items to it.
• Some of our helmets can be equipped with lights and/or
a camera. Only use systems and devices which we have
approved. For more information, contact your dealer.
• ATTENTION: The use of accessories and attachments
(including stickers, decals, and varnishes) not approved by
the manufacturer voids the approval of the helmet and thus
the warranty.
• The helmet is designed so that the forces resulting from an
impact will be dampened by the partial destruction of the
helmet shell or the protective padding or both. This damage
may not be visible, and therefore any helmet should be
discarded after an impact and replaced with a new helmet.
• The protection offered by the helmet depends on the
circumstances of the accident, and wearing a protective
helmet may not always prevent a fatal accident or long-term
disability.
