• CHOOSING THE HELMET
Size:
- In order to determine the correct helmet size, try on helmets of different sizes and choose the one which suits
best the shape of your head and which you feel firm once worn and fastened, thus ensuring a great comfort.
- Should the helmet be too big, it may slide down covering the eyes or turn slowly to the side while riding.
- Keep it on for a few minutes and make sure there are no points of extreme pressure that may cause pain or
headache.
Taking off the helmet:
- With the helmet on and the strap securely fastened, try to take the helmet off as shown in Fig. A. In case of
accident the different forces at stake and their various directions may result in helmet rotations or they may
even cause the helmet to slip off if it is not securely fastened.
- The helmet should not rotate nor move on the head and should not slide off. Should the contrary happen, adjust
strap length or change helmet size. Repeat test.
Retention System:
- The retention system (strap) is factory-adjusted at a standard length. Before use, check that it is correctly pre-
adjusted.
- Make sure the strap is properly fastened and tightened so as to keep the helmet firmly in place. Anyway, before
riding, make sure that the strap is well fastened under the chin, as close as possible to the throat, but without
being uncomfortable.
- The correct strap tension should allow normal breathing and swallowing, but without leaving the space of a
finger between strap and throat.
- Attention:
the button which may be present on the strap only prevents its end from flapping once the strap has
been fastened properly.
• VISOR
- If the visor is damaged or deeply scratched causing reduced visibility, this means that the protective treatment
is probably damaged so the visor is to be replaced.
- The visor can be used only for the intended helmet model.
- Do not paint nor apply stickers.
