lamps
(a)

the relevant country-specific regulations and comply with the road traffic regu-
lations in your country.

USEFUL FACTS ABOUT THE SCOTT BIKE
HELMETS AND GLASSES
Cycling helmets are a must when riding a bicycle. Your SCOTT dealer has a
variety of styles and sizes.
Make sure the helmet complies with the test standard EN 1078 or the like (de-
pending on the country where you use it). Cycling helmets are only approved
for use during cycling. Observe the manufacturer’s instructions.
WARNING
Never ride without a helmet and glasses
(b+c)
! But remember that even the
safest helmet is useless unless it fits properly and is correctly adjusted and
fastened.
In addition to a cycling helmet and suitable clothing, cycling glasses are abso-
lutely essential when you are riding your SCOTT road bike. They do not only
protect your eyes from the sun and the wind, but also keep out flies and other
impurities that may impede your vision when they fly into your eyes. Being tem-
porarily without sight may result in an accident or fall!
