H. MAINTENANCE AND CARE
1. OUTER SHELL
To clean the helmet shell, you can use water, soapy water or one of
the commonly available motorcycle shampoos, cleaners, polishes and
plastic cleaners, or cleaning fl uid. The use of water and soapy water is
usually suffi cient. Make sure when using the other cleaning materials
that these do not come into contact with the visor, since these can
cause damage to the visor and coating.
Note:
Never use motor fuel, thinners or solvents to clean the helmet.
These substances can cause serious damage to the helmet with
no externally visible indication. The full safety function of the
helmet is then no longer guaranteed.
2. VISOR AND SUN VISOR

VISOR
Outer surface of visor
Use a soft cloth and mild soapy water to remove dirt from the outside
of the visor. Use a lint-free cloth to dry the visor.
Inside surface of the visor
The inside surface of the visor should only be cleaned with a soft and,
if necessary, slightly damp cloth (we recommend a microfi bre cloth).
Do not use any cleaning agents for this.
SUN VISOR
The sun visor should only be cleaned with a soft and, if necessary,
slightly damp cloth (we recommend a microfi bre cloth). Do not use any
cleaning agents for this. To protect the anti-fog coating, avoid vigorous
rubbing.

VISOR SHIELD, CLEAR (optional)
Outer surface of visor
Use a soft cloth and mild soapy water to remove dirt from the outside
of the visor. Use a lint-free cloth to dry the visor.
Inside surface of the visor
The inside surface of the visor should only be cleaned with a soft and,
if necessary, slightly damp cloth (we recommend a microfi bre cloth).
Do not use any cleaning agents for this. To protect the anti-fog coating,
avoid vigorous rubbing.
Applicable to all visors:
Note:
After intensive cleaning, riding in the rain or long journeys in
cold weather, the anti-fog coating takes a little time to become
completely effective again. During this time, the coating is unable
to absorb much or any moisture from your breath. You can
accelerate recovery of the coating's anti-fog property by placing
the helmet in a dry, well-ventilated place.
Note:
Use only lukewarm water for cleaning. Never on any account
clean the outer visor or sun visor with petrol, solvent or a window
or glass cleaner or other alcohol-containing cleaning agents.
Note:
To protect the anti-fog coating, avoid vigorous rubbing.
Note:
Never apply anti-fog gel, spray or similar substances to the
active anti-fog coating. This can cause undesirable reactions and
even irreparable damage to the coating.
