FAQs
Is the rear LED light waterproof?
The light is designed to withstand typical city weather conditions like light rain, but it should not be submerged in water.
Can I replace the LED battery?
The LED light is integrated into the helmet and is rechargeable; it is not designed for user-replaceable batteries.
How do I know if the helmet fits correctly?
The helmet should sit level on your forehead, not tilted back, and should not move significantly when you shake your head.
Is this helmet suitable for long-distance racing?
While safe for any ride, this model is specifically optimized for city commuting and may be heavier than specialized lightweight road racing helmets.
How do I charge the rear light?
Use the included charging cable to connect the magnetic port on the light to a standard USB power source.
Troubleshooting
Rear LED light will not turn on
Ensure the light is fully charged and that the magnetic charging contacts are clean and free of obstruction.
Helmet feels unstable on head
Adjust the height of the Zoom Ace Urban dial at the back of the neck and re-tighten the chin straps for a more secure fit.
Buckle is difficult to close
Check the magnetic plates for small metal debris that may prevent a secure seal, and wipe the buckle clean.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your helmet, place it on your head and use the rear Zoom Ace dial to adjust the fit until it is snug but comfortable. Ensure the chin strap is adjusted so the Fidlock buckle sits securely under the jaw. For care, clean the exterior shell with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap; avoid harsh chemicals that may degrade the shell material. Keep the LED light charged via the provided interface and ensure the magnetic contact points are free of debris to maintain a strong connection. Store the helmet in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
