C. READ FIRST
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:
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:
Clean your helmet carefully!
Only use lukewarm tap water, never benzene, gasoline, glass cleaner
or other solvents. Your helmet can be seriously damaged by these
substances without visible damage. A helmet damaged or weakened
by a cleaning agent may not provide head protection in an accident,
resulting in serious personal injury or death.
