C. THE HELMET

14. VENTILATION SYSTEMS

VENTILATION DEVICE 1 – FACE SHIELD SETTING
The C3 PRO has a face shield that adjusts to several positions. Depending
on your road speed and the tendency of the face shield to mist up, open the
face shield sufficiently wide to stop it misting up but so that it still protects
your eyes from excessive draft.
Urban position
In its second locking position, the face shield is automatically in urban
position. Air entering through the bottom gap flows over the inside of the
face shield and escapes through the opening at the top.
VENTILATION DEVICE 2 – INLET VENT
(face shield ventilation)
IN CHIN AREA
To ventilate the face shield, the C3 PRO is provided
with an inlet in the chin area. Irrespective of riding
posture, around 80-90% of the central airstream
flows directly into this inlet when open. A deflector
ensures that the air current ventilates the face shield
effectively even at low road speeds. You can open
and close the inlet by pushing the vent upwards or
downwards.
VENTILATION SYSTEM 3 –
HEAD VENTILATION
There is a large air inlet cowl with a three-stage adjustable ventilation system
on the top of the helmet shell for ventilating the top of your head. Air ente-
ring the helmet through this inlet cowl is directed via channels to the top of
the head. Inside the helmet, the head padding system enables direct contact
between incoming air and the surface of the head, thereby conducting the
80
heat away from the inside of the helmet quickly.
The ventilation is adjusted by means of a slide on
the air inlet cowl that is easy to operate even when
wearing gloves. Moving the slide backwards to the
first locking position produces partial ventilation,
moving it further back opens the air inlet to its full
extent.
Summer and winter adjustment flaps
The ventilation of the C3 PRO can also be adjusted
to suit the seasons, weather conditions or your
personal preferences. While you will prefer the
cooling air current to flow directly on to your head
in summer in autumn/winter you can reduce the
volume of incoming cold air, or divert it, by covering
the ventilation channels with the flaps of the crown
liner. To do so, raise the middle section of the crown
liner slightly and fold out the fabric flaps located
behind the front section.
VENTILATION DEVICE 4 –
INTERIOR AIR EXTRACTION
The C3 PRO is equipped with an innovative air
extraction system. Fresh air flowing in through the
head vent is directed via the air channels in the inner
shell to the back of the helmet. The reduced pressure
that prevails at the back of the helmet ensures that
the air is constantly sucked out through the air vents
and special netting material fitted to the neck pad,
thus guaranteeing a pleasant climate inside the
helmet.
