helmet must be adjusted to head size in such a way
so that it cannot shift or slip off when the chin strap
has been tightened. This is the only way to ensure
protection from the helmet. The helmet is only
secure when the chinstrap is closed, the straps are
pulled taught, and adjustments have been made to
fit individual head size. The straps may not cover the
ears and the closure may not rest on the chin. No
pressure should be exerted on the larynx when the
chinstrap is closed. The helmet should always be
horizontal on the user's head in order to also protect
the forehead.

GENERAL INFORMATION ON SAFETY, PRODUCT
LIFE, STORAGE, CARE AND IDENTIFICATION
Safety notices
If original components are modified or removed from
the product, its safety aspects may be restricted. The
equipment should not be modified in any way or al-
tered to allow attachment of additional parts without
the manufacturer's written recommendation.
Paint, solvents, adhesives or self-adhering stickers
may only be applied in keeping with the manufactur-
er's instructions. The equipment must be checked
for possible damage before and after each use. It
must be ensured that the equipment is serviceable
and fully functional. The equipment must be discard-
ed immediately if there is even the slightest doubt as
to its serviceability. A helmet will not always prevent
injuries, depending on the specific danger. In addi-
tion, sharp edges, wetness and especially icing-up
can diminish the stability of textiles!
WARNING! The products must be kept away from
damaging environments. This includes contact with
corrosive and aggressive substances (e.g. acids, al-
kalis, soldering water, oils, cleaning agents), as well
as extreme temperatures and flying sparks.

Lifespan and replacement
The lifespan of the product depends mainly on the
way and frequency in which it is used as well as ex-
ternal influences. Products made from synthetic
fibre (PA, PES, PP) are subject to a certain ageing
process even if they are not used. This is caused by
the intensivity of UV-rays and environmental influ-
ences.
