INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE AND MAINTENANCE OF THE HELMET
WARNINGS
No helmet can guarantee total safety in an accident.
To guarantee the degree of protection for which it has been designed, the helmet must
fit perfectly and the retention system must be correctly and securely fastened. With the
retention system comfortably but securely fastened, it should not be possible to remove the
helmet from the head. The chin strap must be positioned under the chin and tightened so
that it remains in tension at all times during use of the helmet; the law requires that the
helmet must be correctly fastened at all times.
Do not attach anything to the helmet, unless it has been specifically designed for this pur-
pose. Do not drill holes or make cuts in the shell. Do not modify the helmet or its com-
ponents in any way, as this weakens the structure and risks compromising its ability to
protect. For the same reason, do not paint the helmet, do not attach stickers, do not use
aggressive cleaning products and other solvents.
The helmet is designed to absorb impact through partial destruction of the shell and of the
internal components. Damage to the helmet may not be visible. Replace the helmet imme-
diately if it has sustained an impact, even slight.
The inner shell and the padding are essential to guarantee the protective properties of the
helmet.
The helmet tends to age with time and use: we recommend replacing the helmet when its
components show evident signs of deterioration, such as cracks, rust, discomfort, compo-
nents in a bad state of repair.
In any case, we recommend replacing the helmet after 5 years from purchase.
Unless clearly specified, the helmet cannot be used with communication devices. To check
whether the product is suitable, consult the helmet's user and maintenance booklet.
Only off-road helmets can be used with protective goggles.
Some helmet models are provided standard both with a transparent visor and an internal
sunshield with low luminous transmittance. When lowered, this sunshield cannot be used
in conditions of insufficient visibility (at night, in tunnels, in general conditions of poor
visibility)
When riding never take your hands off the handlebars to use communication devices or
adjust helmet components (visors, sunshields, chin guards). Any adjustments to the helmet
must be carried out with the vehicle stopped.
Ensure that the helmet visor meets the requirements of standard AS 1609 (information
valid for the Australian market).
