Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure proper fit, measure the child's head circumference; this specific model accommodates 47-51 cm. The helmet should sit level on the head, not tilted back or forward. To clean, use only lukewarm water and mild soap; avoid harsh chemical cleaners which can degrade the shell material. Check the `Multi-Fit` light mounting periodically to ensure it is securely attached. When storing, keep the helmet in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources, as extreme temperatures can damage the structural integrity of the EPS foam.
