Moreover, the innovative fastening system allows you to assemble and disassemble
the sunscreen without the need for any tools for ordinary maintenance and cleaning
operations.
VPS operation
The VPS mechanism allows you to activate the sunscreen by simply lowering it until
it partially covers the visor field of vision. In this way, the desired light transmittance
reduction is achieved. At any time, independent of the visor, the VPS can be deacti-
vated with a simple movement and easily pulled up to restore the normal conditions
of visibility and protection guaranteed by the approved helmet visor.
To deactivate the VPS, push the slider towards the back of the helmet (Fig. 12A) until
you hear the click, which means the slider and VPS are correctly in place.
To activate the VPS, push the slider forward (Fig. 12B). The VPS has been designed
to ensure an easy, quick and tool-free disassembly.
Precautions for use
The current approval standards (ECE 22-05) state that the minimum light transmit-
tance levels must be greater than 80% when riding at night and not less than 50%
when riding during the day. For this reason, when riding during the day under partic-
ularly bright weather conditions, e.g. very strong sunlight, the use of sunglasses -
which have a transmittance much lower than 50% - turns out to be advisable, if not
compulsory, to reduce eye fatigue on long trips. Sunglasses are necessary to reduce
the risk of direct dazzling as opposed to the use of mere approved visors. However,
the use of sunglasses makes it difficult to perform in emergency situations when the
maximum visibility range of the visor must be quickly restored. Just think, for exam-
ple, of what happens when you enter a tunnel or when unexpected changes in envi-
ronmental brightness occur. Thanks to its operating mechanism, the VPS makes
these operations much easier.
WARNING
-
The VPS can be used only during the day and under the environmental condi-
tions described before.
-
At night and/or in conditions of scarce visibility, the VPS MUST be deactivated.
-
Always check that the VPS is properly positioned according to the different
weather/environmental conditions and/or to the above mentioned recommenda-
tions for use.
-
We recommend using the VPS only and solely together with the approved stan-
dard visor, which has a transmittance value greater than 80%.
-
Since the VPS does not assure the same protection as that provided by the visor.
-
Always make sure that the VPS is clean and that it is operating properly in order
to avoid scratches and/or incorrect wear when it is activated.
-
Please refer to the proper section in the helmet user’s manual for the VPS and
visor maintenance and cleaning operations.
