WARNING! No helmet can
fully protect users against
all possible high or low-speed
shocks. To ensure an efcient
level of protection however, the
helmet must be sized appropria

tely and the chin strap adequa-
tely tightened, as indicated in the
manual. It is hazardous not to use
a correctly sized helmet or not to
sufciently tighten the chin strap
closing system since the helmet
may become detached from the
head in the event of an accident,
thereby causing serious or even
fatal injuries.
CHOOSE YOUR SIZE

head circumference, unroll a tape

does not shift too much from left
