Using the helmet
Once you have chosen the most suitable helmet, make sure that you
wear it correctly.
For safety, it should
always fit snugly, and the strap should be tightly fastened.
A helmet will never be able to guarantee total protection for the head when subjected to the forces produced
by certain types of impact. However this is no excuse to forego wearing a helmet. You should
always wear
your helmet,
in order to exploit the protection that it provides, whatever impact may occur.
4 things that you should never forget
1.
Before using the helmet,
read all the instructions, and follow the suggestions carefully to ensure a
correct fit.
2.
Do not use the helmet without fastening the strap.
An unfastened helmet will fall off during the first
impact, leaving the head unprotected for successive impacts. There is also the risk of it falling off during
flight.
3.
Do not
fasten the helmet
using just the Velcro.
The Velcro that may be present on the strap serves
purely to stop it flapping in the wind.
4.
To ensure maximum performance, never modify your helmet, whatever the circumstances.

•
After an accident, even if the impact was minor, the helmet should be replaced, regardless of
whether there is visible damage or not.
If you witness an accident:
•
Keep calm.
•
Report the accident immediately, if possible by phoning for an ambulance (in Italy, dial the unified
