Safety advice
- The helmet features a tilting sun shield that may only be used in combination with the visor.
- The retention system must always be carefully set and locked.
- Never wear scarves or other headgear underneath the retention system.
- Always ensure that there is no airflow restriction inside the helmet.
- Ensure that your visor is clean and scratch-free at all times. Never use smoked visors at night
or when visibility is poor. Exchange damaged visors for a genuine replacement immediately.
Your safety is at risk.
You are able to obtain replacement visors from the stipulated service address for a period of
5 years from the purchase date. Visor type: V160
- Never make any changes to any part of your helmet. Do not make any alterations to the
outer shell, do not insert screws.
- The helmet may not be painted or have stickers or labels.
- The helmet is designed to absorb the energy of a blow or a collision by destroying some
of its components. In case of a further blow it wouldn’t protect you any longer. After an ac-
cident, the helmet must be replaced even though it doesn’t show external damages.
- Refrain from transporting your helmet by hanging it onto any part of your motorcycle. Keep
it away from exhaust pipes and other sources of heat.
- Never use solvents, petrol or other detergents when cleaning the shell and interior of your
helmet. Only use water and pH balanced soap. The padding can be cleaned using soap
and a small brush. The visor should be cleaned with soap and water only, leave it to air-dry.
Do not expose the visor to any source of heat!
- Only use genuine spare parts for your helmet.

Inside Padding with Coolmax Inserts
Coolmax® by INVISTA is a high-performance fabric fibre that supports
its wearers during sport activities. Based on the patented DuPont-fibre
technology, Coolmax® transports moisture from the body to the fabric
surface where it dries quicker than with any other fabric.
The specially developed fibres of INVISTA that are used for Coolmax®-fabrics transport the
moisture away from the body to the surface of the fabric where it has the opportunity to evap-
orate quickly. At the same time the uniquely formed fibres offer maximum breathing activity,
even in wet conditions. In addition the breathing activity improves the heat regulating effect.
