INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
The N104 ABSOLUTE helmet can be used in two congurations (chin guard closed
- P / chin guard open - J). The use of the helmet in conguration P (with chin guard
and visor closed) obviously offers the highest degree of protection in comparison to
conguration J (with chin guard and visor open).
• CHIN GUARD OPENING SYSTEM
The N104 ABSOLUTE is equipped with the unique “Dual Action” chin guard opening
system. Positioned in the centre of the chin guard, it allows for easy, one-handed
opening and prevents it from accidentally opening because the chin guard can be
opened by operating the second release lever only when the rst lever has already
been released.
N.B.: For an easier tment of the helmet we may suggest you to keep the chin-
guard opened and the vps in the up position during the operation.
1 OPENING
1.1 Push the red release lever outwards by turning it with your thumb (Fig. 1).
1.2 Place your forenger on top of the opening lever and push it downwards so as to
unlock the chin guard (Fig. 2).
1.3 Pull the ip-up chin guard forwards, accompanying it as it rotates upwards with
an elliptical movement (Fig. 3).
WARNING: If the helmet is used in conguration J (with chin guard open), it is
recommended to place the left side locking slider in position “J” (see instruc-
tions for P/J conguration - Fig. A, slider upwards) to secure the chin guard in
lifted position.
2 CLOSING
WARNING: In order to be able to close the chin guard, make sure the side lock-
ing slider is in position “P”, as shown in g. B (lever downwards).
2.1 Pull the chin guard downwards, accompanying it as it rotates with an elliptical
movement, until you hear the clicks of the closing mechanism.
2.2 Make sure that the chin guard is properly fastened.
P/J CONFIGURATION
Fig. B (slider downwards)
When the side locking slider is in position “P” (Fig. B, lever downwards), the chin
guard can be opened and/or closed.
Fig. A (slider upwards)
When the side locking slider is in position “J” (Fig. A, lever upwards), the chin guard
cannot be closed, remaining locked in open position.
WARNING! In this conguration, the chin guard cannot be closed again. Do not
force the closing of the chin guard because it could cause damages in the hel-
met’s closing mechanism. To close the chin guard, it is necessary to move the
locking slider to position P (Fig. B, lever downwards).
