WARNING: No helmet can
protect the wearer from all fo-
reseeable high or low speed impacts.
However, for maximum protection,
the helmet must be of proper fit and
the chin strap must be securely fas-
tened as described in this manual.
Failure to have a proper fit and to se-
curely fasten the chin strap is dange-
rous, as the helmet could come off in
an accident, resulting in severe head
injury or death.
CHIN STRAP
Your helmet is equipped
with a double-D-ring chin strap. Pro-
per use of the chin strap is critical for
proper performance of the helmet.
Never alter your chin strap in any
way. For example, never cut it or add
holes, or apply buttons, studs or other
items to your chin strap. During the
life of your helmet, be sure that the
chin strap never suffers any type of
abrasion or cut, and that its total
length does not change. If it does,
replace your helmet.
We strongly recommend that you
fasten your chin strap before putting
on your gloves, in order to make sure
that the fastening within the double-
D-ring is correct.
1. Slide the longest part of the strap
through both rings, while checking
that the comfort padding is positio-
ned between the strap and your neck.
See figure A.
2. Loop the end of the chin strap back
over the end of the outer D-ring and
pass it back through the inner D-ring.
See figure B.
3. Pull the end of the strap until the
chin strap is tight. The chin strap
should be positioned against your
neck, not under your chin, and should
be as tight as possible while not cau-
sing pain or interference with your
breathing. See figure C.
4. Slide the free end of the chin strap
into the plastic strap loop on the com-
fort padding, in order to prevent the
strap from fluttering in the wind.
See figure D.
Never lend your helmet to
others without insuring proper
use of the double-D-ring chin
strap in accordance with these
instructions.

WARNING: Never use the strap loop to secure your helmet
to your head. In order to be properly fastened, you must
thread the strap through the double-D-rings. Failure to properly
use the double-D-rings will cause your helmet to become dis-
lodged during an accident, leaving your head completely unpro-
tected and resulting in severe head injury or death.
Try to pull down on the chin strap with your fingers. If the strap
loosens in any way, you have not properly tightened the chin
strap with the double-D-rings. Repeat the steps above.
If you have any doubt concerning the fastening system of your
helmet, do not use the helmet. Contact your dealer for assistance
