Setup, Compatibility & Care
For optimal safety, ensure the chin strap is tightened so that the helmet does not roll forward or backward on your head. The interior liner can be removed by unfastening the snap buttons; wash with mild soap and cold water, then air dry completely before reinstallation. To maintain the shell, use only mild detergents and a soft cloth, avoiding harsh chemicals that may degrade the polycarbonate coating. Always check the visor screws for tightness before every ride to prevent vibration-induced loosening.
