3. When you are satisfied with the fit, tighten the chin strap. The chin strap should be as tight as pos-
sible but without causing pain. Never wear your helmet with the buckle unfastened. The loose ends of
the strap must loop back up through the rubber „0" ring.
4. To adjust the position of the straps, hold one end of the chin buckle in one hand and slide the adjuster
up or down the strap as necessary, to create a balanced and even „Y" shape underneath the ears.
Position the buckle away from your jaw bone. It should not be possible to remove the helmet without
opening the chin strap. If you can roll the helmet off in front or back, or roll it so it blocks your vision or
exposes your forehead, it does not fit correctly and should be re-adjusted.
Never wear your helmet with the buckle unfastened. Helmet adjustment can change during riding and
storage. Check the helmet for proper adjustment and fit prior to each bicycle ride.
HOW TO CUSTOMIZE YOUR FIT
HELMETS WITH TUNED FIT SYSTEM
Our Tuned Fit System allows you to dial in your fit using different thickness comfort pads on the interior
of the helmet. Your helmet comes with two sizes of comfort pads. Carefully separate the Velcro strips at
room temperature to remove the pads on the inside of the helmet and swap them for the thickness you
need. Your helmet package contains spare fastening points in case one of the Velcro fastening points
becomes detached. If the helmet still does not fit after having adjusted it with the pads, choose another
size. Comfort pads can be purchased separately in all the various sizes.
HELMETS WITH DIAL-FIT SYSTEM
If you have purchased a TSG helmet with Dial-Fit System, you can size adjust your helmet by dial. To
tighten the dial, turn it clockwise to a comfortable fit. To loosen, turn the dial counterclockwise. The
fit should be snug, but not uncomfortably tight. Be sure to check the adjustment of your helmet before
each ride. The Dial Fit System is designed to enhance the fit and stability of your helmet. It is not a
replacement for your helmet's straps. Do not attempt to remove the fit system from your helmet; doing
so will void all of the helmet's warranties.
You can adjust the fit tension of the TSG Scope helmet additionally by moving the dial system forward
or backwards. You must remove the helmet and move the lateral snap anchor on each side forward or
back to adjust the fit as needed (FIG. 2).
You can adjust the fit even more on dial-fit systems that offer height adjustment (not a feature of all sys-
tems) Height adjustment allows the helmet's fore/aft tilt to be optimized. Simply change the system's
center arm position (at the back of the helmet) by pulling the pins out from the inside of the helmet and
snapping them back up or down to the desired position (FIG. 3a). If your helmet comes with a height-
adjustable ratchet system, you can simply slide it up or down to adjust it (FIG. 3b). Experiment until you
get a fit that is most comfortable.
For safety reasons, we recommend that you do not attempt to adjust the fit of a helmet while you are riding.
MIPS®

injuries caused by rotational impacts to the head. Learn more about MIPS by reading the MIPS bro-
chure enclosed in your helmet box or visit: http://mipsprotection.com.

HELMETS WITH REMOVABLE VISOR
SCREWED VISORS
If your helmet visor comes with side screws, open the screws on the visor, then remove the visor.
SNAP-FIT VISORS
Carefully pull the ends of the visor loose from the helmet and then lift away from the helmet. If your visor
is fixed to the helmet with the help of single pins, use a non-sharp screwdriver (between pin and visor)
to carefully remove the pins at the ends of the visor and lift the visor away from the helmet.
To replace the visor, center it on the helmet, position the middle pins (if provided) into the holes and
then snap the pins on the side of the visor into the holes in the helmet (FIG. 4a).
Depending on the model your visor offers 3 degrees of vertical angle adjustment; simply tilt the visor up
or down to the desired position (FIG. 4b). Some models don't feature adjustable visors.
Caution: DO NOT try to remove the visor by pulling forward on the centre. This will damage the helmet
and the visor.
HELMETS WITH REMOVABLE SIDE PROTECTION
If your helmet is a convertible mountain bike helmet, you can remove the side protection without tools.
Follow the instructions on page 6 (FIG. 6). To reinstall, follow the steps in reverse order.
HELMETS WITH LED LIGHT
To remove the LED light push it out of the helmet from the inside with the help of a pen (FIG. 5a). To
replace the LED light snap the pins on the LED light into the holes in the helmet (FIG. 5b). To replace
the battery on your LED light, remove the two screws at the base of the light, remove the cover and the
circuit. At the back of the circuit push the battery out with non-sharp tool. Insert a new battery with +
sign up. Put the circuit and finally the cover back in and close the screws.
Battery included: Lithium Cell CR2032.
