Troubleshooting

Visor fogs up excessively

Ensure the anti-fog coating has not been compromised by harsh cleaning agents. Clean the visor with a mild soap and water solution, rinse thoroughly, and allow to air dry or gently pat dry. Avoid touching the inner surface.

Visor is scratched

Minor scratches may not significantly impact vision. For significant scratches, consider replacing the visor to ensure optimal clarity and protection. Avoid using abrasive cleaning materials.

Visor does not fit securely to the helmet

Verify that you are using a compatible Height Endurance helmet model (PS53, PS63, PS73). Ensure the visor is correctly aligned with the helmet's attachment points and firmly clicked into place. Consult the helmet's user manual for specific fitting instructions.
