• This helmet has been designed solely and exclusively to protect users of bicycles, electric scooters or roller skates. It must never be used for activities other than those indicated.
• Note that the protection provided by a helmet is limited and only affects the covered areas of the head. This helmet offers no protection against spinal or other bodily injuries. You are cautioned that wearing a properly fitted helmet does not guarantee that you will not suffer serious injury or death in the event of an accident.

WARNINGS:

A No helmet can protect the wearer against all possible impacts.
B The helmet is designed to be fastened by a strap under the lower jaw.
C To be effective, the helmet must fit and be worn correctly. To check the correct fit, place the helmet on the head and make the necessary adjustments as indicated below.

Secure the restraint system safely. Grasp the helmet and try to rotate it back and forth. A properly fitted helmet should be comfortable and should not move forward to obstruct vision or backward to expose the forehead.

D No adjustments should be made to the helmet except those recommended by the helmet manufacturer in this instruction manual.

E The helmet is designed to absorb impacts through partial destruction of the housing and liner. This damage may not be visible. Therefore, if subjected to a severe blow, the helmet must be destroyed and replaced, even if it appears to be undamaged.

F The helmet can be damaged and rendered ineffective by petroleum products, cleaning agents, paints, adhesives, etc., without the user being able to detect the damage visually.

H This helmet must not be worn by children while climbing or doing other activities where there is a risk of suffocation or strangulation if the child becomes trapped while wearing the helmet.

The helmet can only protect if it fits properly, and the buyer should try on different sizes and choose the one that feels secure and comfortable on the head.

J The helmet should be adjusted to fit the wearer, for example, the straps should be positioned so that they do not cover the ears, the buckle should be positioned away from the jawbone, and the straps and buckle should be adjusted so that they are comfortable and firm.

K The helmet should be placed on the head in such a way that it protects the forehead and is not pushed too far towards the back of the head, to ensure the intended protection.

L A helmet cannot always protect against injury.
M A helmet subjected to severe impact must be discarded and destroyed.
N It is dangerous to modify or remove any original part of the helmet except as recommended by the manufacturer.

Fitting instructions

To determine the size of your head, measure the diameter of your head with a measuring tape as shown in figure A. Make sure that the helmet size you choose is the same size as the circumference of your head. This will ensure a snug and comfortable fit for your helmet. Then tighten the straps (figure B). The helmet should be placed on the head so that it protects the forehead, as shown in figure C. To ensure that the helmet is properly fitted, adjust the straps under the chin and fasten the buckle. To unfasten the buckle, press the part you inserted earlier, and it will automatically snap off. The helmet must also be adjusted by turning the knob at the rear (figure D).
