H. CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Note: After intensive cleaning, riding in the rain or a long
journey in cold weather, the anti-fog coating requires a
certain period of time to become fully active again. During
this time the coating may absorb little or none of the
moisture produced by breathing.
Note: Use only lukewarm (<20C) water for cleaning. Never
clean the visor with petrol, solvents or window or glass
cleaners or other alcohol-based cleaning agents.
Note: To protect the anti-fog and anti-scratch coatings avoid
heavy rubbing or scrubbing.
Note: Do not apply anti-fog gel, spray or similar substances
to the anti-fog coating. Doing so may lead to undesirable
reactions and possible irreparable damage to the coating.
Note: The active anti-fog and anti-scratch coatings are
prone to ageing, the rate of which depends on the intensity
of use and on environmental conditions. For your own safety
we recommend that you replace the visor when its anti-fog
properties begin to deteriorate signifi cantly.
Note: The active anti-fog coating absorbs chemical
substances such as solvents and can be damaged by them.
You should avoid storing the helmet close to aggressive
substances (such as fuels).
Note: Even moist cleaning cloths for glasses (lens cloths) are
– despite recommendations to the contrary – not suitable
for cleaning the visor, since the substances they contain are
not tolerated by the anti-fog and anti-scratch coatings avoid
using such cloths.

Note: The visor must not be immersed in water, even when
heavily soiled, since this will result in the surface hardness
and thus resistance of the anti-fog coating being severely
reduced.
Note: Except when in use, and particularly during storage,
the visor should not be fully closed, as any moisture inside
the helmet is then unable to escape and will be absorbed
in large quantities by the anti-fog coating. This can cause a
reduction in the useful life of the coating. Ideally you should
position the visor in the second position above the urban
setting.
Note: Do not affi x any labels, adhesive tape or stickers to the
visor.
Tip: If the helmet is not used for a long period, a milky
surface may sometimes appear (caused by a reaction of the
active anti-fog coating with the surroundings). This can most
easily be removed using a dry cloth.
Tip: Stubborn dirt on the exterior of the visor (e.g. the dried
remnants of insects) can be easily removed by covering the
visor, while closed, with a moist cloth and leaving for ½ to 1
hour for the dirt to soften.
Note: It is important to avoid storing the visor in
temperatures above 40 °C and in high humidity, as these
conditions will cause damage to it.
