3. Check for cracks in the helmet. Strong acid (e.g. battery
acid) can damage the shield bases. If you find cracks or
damage, stop using the helmet immediately.
4. Check helmet for deterioration. If you find deterioration
in any part of a component, either replace that component
or get a new helmet. If these parts come loose and/or fall
off while you are riding, your vision may be blocked, which
could cause an accident resulting in serious personal injury
or death.
5. Check the security of the retention system (see section G.3.).
For checking instructions and procedure see also section F.
(before every journey) of this manual.
Warning:
Don't mistreat your helmet!
Never ride with the helmet hanging from the helmet holder,
and do not hang the helmet from angled supports such as
a mirror. Do not sit on or throw your helmet. You should
not expose the liner of your helmet to strong sunlight and
excessive heat such as near heaters or where temperatures
exceed 50 °C (122 °F). Avoid spraying insect repellent chemicals
(such as "naphthalene") near the helmet. Mistreating your
helmet will damage the shell and impact absorbing liner,
reducing the helmet's ability to protect you in an accident.
Warning:
Don't use the helmet for anything than motorcycling!
No helmet provides absolute protection from all conceivable
impacts. This helmet has been specially developed for
motorcycle riding. It may not be suitable for other purposes.
Warning:
Replace the helmet after no more than five years!
The useful life of the helmet depends on its use and care. We
recommend that this helmet has to be replaced after no more
than five years from its date of purchase.

Warning:
Never use the helmet with the lining removed!
If the lining is not installed before use, the helmet may not
fit properly and could come off in an accident, resulting in
severe head injury or death. Excessive heat (e.g. exhaust
heat) can cause damage tographics, the inner shell of the
helmet and the interior lining!
Warning:
Never modify your helmet!
It is very dangerous to drill holes or to cut the shell and/or
the shock absorbing liner. Modification can seriously weaken
the helmet. Modifying the retention system weakens it,
increasing the likelihood of snapping during impact.
Removing parts such as the mouth guard or rubber face
molding can expose edges that may injure you in an
accident. Always use approved SCHUBERTH parts when
replacing shields, screws, or any other parts. A weakened
helmet will not provide head protection.
Warning:
Do not repaint the helmet!
Repainting of your helmet is not recommended. Certain types
of paint and thinner can damage the helmet and reduce its
ability to provide head protection in an accident.
Warning:
Avoid direct contact with aggressive substances!
The direct effect of motor fuels, 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!
Warning:
Clean your helmet carefully!
For cleaning instructions see section H.1. (maintenance and
care – outer helmet shell) of this manual.
