D. THE HELMET
Note:
In view of the strong air pressure acting on the silicone seal
when travelling with an open face shield, we recommend
riding with a closed face schield at all times to prevent any
dirt or moisture from getting inside the helmet.
Note:
Never press the locking pins out with your fingers as they may
break.
Caution:
As a result of the double lens structure, there is a possibility
of greater light reflection in the face schield, especially when
riding at night. As a rule, such light reflection is regarded as
uncritical due to the absence of fog with this type of visor.
However, if this light reflection should cause you difficulties -
because of particular sensitivity to it, for example - you should
refrain from using the Pinlock
Caution:
If moisture is present in or has penetrated the airtight area
between the two plates, you should remove the Pinlock
lense immediately in order to prevent any interference with
visibility. Do not re-fit it until both plstes are completely
dry (we recommend air-drying). If you should subsequently
detect any further penetration of moisture, the Pinlock
should not be used on any account and must be replaced.
Safety note
Check before each journey that the Face Shield and suns visor
mechanism are functioning correctly and that the Face Shield
and sun visor will provide good visibility. Any dirt should be
removed before setting off. Check the Face Shield and sun visor
for physical damage and cracks. Severely scratched or matt Face
Shields will seriously impair visibility and should be replaced
before setting off on a journey.

Caution:
Petrol, solvent and fuel vapours can cause cracking of the
Face Shield. Make sure that the Face Shield is never exposed
to such vapours! Never place the helmet on the tank of your
bike.
12. TINTED SUN VISOR
Sun visor
The sun visor is tinted grey and has a 3D shape. Thanks to the
sun visor's 1.5 mm thickness, it provides protection against small
stone chips or insects. It does not provide protection against
other hazards. It is also scratch-resistant and offers effective UV
protection with its special polycarbonate structure.
Operation
The sun visor is operated by means of the slide positioned on the
left in the chin area, which is easy to use even when wearing
gloves.
Moving the slide towards the back
lowers the sun visor, moving it
forwards retracts the sun visor inside
the inner helmet shell and locks it in
position.
The sun visor can be operated
irrespective of the position of
the Face Shield.
Note:
Only use the slide to operate the sun visor.
