uvex safety helmets increase workplace safety. They protect the wearer from head injuries when
danger arises through falling or oscillating objects. uvex assures, through the marking of the safe-
ty helmets in accordance with EN 397 and EN 12492, the standard as stipulated by Annex II of the
EC Directive 89/686/EEC and the harmonized European standards for the import or the production
of the aforementioned uvex safety helmet.
You can fi nd the following markings on the helmet:
1/00 = manufacture date, divided into quarter and production year
uvex = Manufacturer
51–61 cm = Head circumference with a thumb fastener, quick-release fastener
pheos alpine = Type designation
CE = CE mark
ABS = used material
EN 397 and EN 12492 = Number of the European standard
Additional requirement:
–30° C (EN 397) = Stability at very low temperatures (helmet offers protection down to –30°)
Safety/maintenance/inspection: Changes to the helmet shell or using incorrect interior impair
the safety functions of the uvex safety helmet. Check the helmet on a regular basis for noticeable
damage and ensure that the link between interior and helmet shell is correctly connected. Safety
helmets are defi nitely not allowed to be used after heavy blows or shocks have been absorbed as
well as when defects have been detected.
Storage: Safety helmets are to be stored in dry places at room temperature, strong solar radiation
should be avoided (e.g. do not store the safety helmet on the rear hat shelf of a car)!
Cleaning: All plastic parts can be cleaned using water and commercially available detergents.
Disinfecting: The entire helmet can be disinfected with a mild, commercially available disinfect-
ant. In case of doubt, please contact uvex.
Ageing/Expiry date: Every material, if steel, aluminium, plastic, etc. is subject to an ageing pro-
cess – also called signs of fatigue. Ageing is the degradation of mechanical properties, provoked
by mechanical wear-and-tear, environmental impact such as air pollution, chemicals or height-
ened exposure to UV rays. It is recommended, according to the current technological stand, that
one replaces helmets after 4–5 years (counting from the date of manufacture).
Transport: The uvex original packaging or a moisture-repelling packaging is to be used as the
transport packaging and for storage. All uvex safety helmets have a type test certifi cate of a
licensed test centre.
