CHANGING THE INNER VISOR SHIELD
Removing the inner visor shield
1. Before starting to remove the visor's
inner shield, fi rst lay the visor on a soft,
clean piece of cloth so that its top edge
is facing you.
2. For the purposes of reducing the
pretensioning of the inner shield slightly
if necessary, you can use the balls of
your hands to carefully bend the visor
suffi ciently apart while at the same time
pressing with your thumbs so that the
inner shield becomes released and
moves approx. 2-3 mm forward.
3. Now grasp behind the inner shield with
your index and middle fi ngers and lift it
off the outer shield. In this position you
can now easily remove the inner shield
from the locking pin with your thumb.
4. You can now remove the inner shield
from the visor.
Fitting an inner visor shield
1. Lay the inner shield in the main visor
in such a way that one side of it is
already slotted into the locking pin
and the silicone sealing is on the side
facing the outer visor shield.

2. Now grasp the other side of the inner
visor shield by its upper and lower
transverse edges and use your index
fi nger to gently press the end of the
inner shield into a light "S" form. Now
you can easily guide the slot onto the
locking pin and release the inner
shield.
3. The inner shield should now be
positioned in the main visor with
its lower edge parallel to the lower
edge of the main visor. If you need to
change the positioning of the inner
shield, use the balls of your hands to
gently bend the visor apart until the
inner shield can be shifted
accordingly.
4. Check right around the visor to make
sure that the silicone seal fi ts tightly
and uniformly against the outer
shield. It is only if it does that the
visor can be guaranteed to prevent
misting.
5. If you have not done so already,
remove the protective foil from
the inner visor shield.
Any lack of airtightness accordingly leading to misting of the visor
either means that the inner shield is incorrectly positioned or the
pressure on the seal is inadequate. You can regulate the pressure on
the seal by adjusting the eccentric locking pins. To do so, remove the
inner visor shield, then use a fl at but not sharp-edged object to carefully
press the locking pins out of the outer shield. Now adjust these pins by
rotating them by up to 180° and then reinsert them. Then fi t the inner
shield and check that the sealing is now airtight.
