Safety Advice Concerning The Face Shield / Sun Visor; Safety Advice Concerning Modifications / Accessories - SCHUBERTH S2 Manual Del Usuario

F. FOR YOUR SAFETY
The helmet safety mechanism described above can also cause
small cracks in the shell when the helmet is dropped from
a small height (less than 1 metre). You are welcome to send
your S2 to our customer service department to be checked
free of charge. You will only have to pay for packaging and
shipping.
Any helmet that has been subjected to a violent impact
should be replaced.
No helmet provides absolute protection from all conceivable
impacts. This helmet has been specially developed for
motorcycle riding and is unsuitable for other purposes.
Examine the helmet for damage at regular intervals. Small
scratches will not impair the protective function of your
helmet.
The helmet should be replaced after 5 to 7 years, depending
on use and care. Although the outer shell is in principle
capable of a longer service life, the occurrence of material
fatigue and wear to other components, as well as the overall
action of the helmet and the unknown conditions in which
the helmet has been used, make it advisable for your own
safety to replace the helmet after this period of use.
Excessive heat (e.g. exhaust heat) can cause damage to the
decoration, the inner shell of the helmet and the interior
lining.
Direct contact with motor fuel, thinners or solvents can
destroy the structure of the inner and outer shell. Make sure
the helmet does not come into contact with such substances,
even for cleaning purposes.

2. SAFETY ADVICE CONCERNING THE FACE SCHIELD / SUN VISOR
The protective film used during shipping should be removed
before use.
Any scratches and/or dirt arising from the use of the face
shield and/or sun visors significantly impair your vision in any
driving situation and thus increase the risk of an accident.
For your own safety, replace them or clean them immediately.
Never use a tinted face shield or sun visor in conditions of
poor visibility, at night or in a tunnel!
Benzene, solvent and fuel vapour can cause cracks in the
face shield. Keep the face shield away from such vapours and
do not allow these kinds of substances to come into direct
contact with the face shield! Never place the helmet on the
tank of your motorcycle.
Make sure the face shield is always in perfect condition. Don't
ride when visibility is poor!

3. SAFETY ADVICE CONCERNING MODIFICATIONS / ACCESSORIES

Original components (in particular on the outer shell, inner
shell and restraint system) should not be altered or removed.
The fitting of additional parts from other manufacturers
that have not been recommended can reduce the protective
effect and renders the ECE certification and all warranty and
insurance claims invalid.
Use only original parts, replacement parts and accessories
that SCHUBERTH has expressly approved for your helmet!
