WARNINGS
Failure to respect the warnings listed below could have grave,
and even life-threatening, consequences.
This helmet is designed to provide protection from impact,
from penetration from above, from crushing, from tension and
from exposure to flames, within the limits contemplated under
the EN 397 Norms.
It is meant to reduce the effects of unforeseen events, but it
cannot protect the head from all eventualities.
To ensure maximum protection, the helmet:
MUST be properly placed on the head, and the
webbing must be adjusted to ensure that the helmet fits
snugly, through with a certain degree of comfort.
To ensure maximum stability of the helmet, always
attach and adjust the chin-strap correctly; this will help
reduce shifting of the helmet resulting from certain
environmental conditions.
Do not place any outside objects between the padding
and the parts of the helmet beneath it, given that such
objects, in the event of an impact, can transmit
significant force to the head, with serious, potentially
life-threatening consequences.
NEVER USE this helmet for driving or for sports
activities.
Inspect the helmet before and after each use,
employing the inspection procedures described in this
manual and immediately replacing any worn or
damaged parts exclusively with spare parts supplied by
Catù SA.
NEVER alter or modify the helmet.
NEVER attach accessories and/or decals or labels
within 26 mm of the edge of the head-piece.
