WARNING!
No helmet can
protect the wearer from all
foreseeable high or low speed im-
pacts. However, for maximum
protection, the helmet must be
of proper fit and the chin strap must be
securely fastened as described in this
manual. Failure to have a proper fit and
to securely fasten the chin strap is dan-
gerous, as the helmet could come off
in an accident, resulting in severe head
injury or death.
CHOOSE YOUR SIZE
Each helmet is designed to corres-
pond to a head measurement (from for
XS up to XL). To measure your head
size, wrap a tape measure horizon-
tally around your head at a height of
approximately one inch (2.5cm) above
your eyebrows. If your head measure-
ment falls between two sizes, first try
on the smaller helmet. However, be-
cause of different head shapes, this
size reference can only be considered
as a guide. For maximum protection, it
is necessary to check that the helmet is
well suited for the shape of your head.
When trying a brand new helmet, make
sure that your head is pushed into the
helmet as far as possible, with the front
part just above your eyebrows, and
with the chin strap securely fastened
as described on the next page.

The helmet should feel very snug all

cheek pads. If not, it is too big for you;
select a smaller size.

be moved excessively from side to
side or up and down.You should feel
