WARNINgS and INSTRUCTIONS
1. This helmet is for use only with
motorcycles ridden on the street or other
paved surfaces. Never use this helmet off
road, on snowmobiles, in automobiles, etc.
2. Always ride with care. Even though
this helmet meets or exceeds many of
the world’s most demanding standards for
helmet production, no helmet can protect
the wearer from all foreseeable high or low
speed impacts. All safety equipment have
limits, and you could still sustain a head
injury in an accident even if you are wearing
a helmet. However, for maximum protection
against death or permanent impairment
from a head injury, the helmet must fit
firmly on your head and the chinstrap must
be securely fastened as described in this
manual.
3. A helmet, like all products, may wear
out over time depending on the conditions
of use. Please check your helmet every
time you use it for evidence of damage
or wear. The helmet should always fit
snugly all around your head. If it is not
snug, it has become too big for you and
should be replaced. Never wear a damaged
helmet. Even if the helmet does not show
any evidence of damage or wear, we
recommended the helmet to be replaced
five years after it is first purchased.
4. Make no modifications whatsoever to
your helmet. Never drill or cut any component
of the helmet. Modifications can significantly
weaken your helmet, thereby eliminating its
ability to protect you from an impact.
5. Handle your helmet carefully. Never sit
on it or drop it to the ground. Never ride
with the helmet hanging from any part of
your motorcycle.
6. Never use petroleum or petroleum
products, chemicals or any other solvents to
clean the helmet, shell or visor. In addition,
never expose your helmet to the fumes of
these solvents (for example by leaving it on
top of the fuel tank cap on your motorcycle).
your helmet could be seriously damaged by
these agents, without this damage being
visible to you, thereby eliminating its ability
to protect you. Use only mild soap, warm
water, and a soft cloth to wipe your helmet
and visor clean.
7. Never apply any paint, stickers or
adhesive tape to any part of your shell or
visor. They could significantly weaken your
helmet, without this damage being visible to
you, thereby eliminating the helmet’s ability
to protect you.
8 . you will experience some reduction
in hearing, peripheral vision and head
movements while you are wearing your
helmet. Please ride accordingly.
9. Dry your helmet at room temperature.
Never subject it to heat in excess of
160°F/70°C, which can occur if your helmet
is stored in the passenger compartment or
trunk of a car.

questions about this helmet, please contact
Shark or your nearest dealer.
