FAQs
How do I wash the padding?
Gently remove the padding from the interior and hand-wash it in cold water with mild detergent. Let it air dry fully before replacing it.
Does this helmet work for children with long hair?
Yes, the height-adjustable system at the back is designed to accommodate pigtails or ponytails comfortably.
Can I replace the straps if they break?
The straps are integrated into the helmet's safety system; please contact ABUS support for inquiries regarding repair or replacement parts.
How often should I replace the helmet?
The helmet should be replaced immediately after any significant impact, even if there is no visible damage, as the internal foam structure may be compromised.
Is this helmet suitable for all head shapes?
The adjustment wheel allows for a broad range of sizing, but ensure the internal ring is centered for the most comfortable fit on your child's head.
Troubleshooting
Helmet feels loose even when the wheel is tightened
Ensure the side straps are properly adjusted so the helmet doesn't shift, and check if the rear height adjustment needs to be moved to a lower position for a deeper fit.
Straps feel irritating against the skin
Adjust the strap sliders under the ears to ensure they sit flat and are not twisted. Ensure the chin buckle is not pinching the skin.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best fit, start by loosening the rear adjustment wheel. Place the helmet on the child's head, ensuring it is level—not tilted too far forward or backward. Tighten the rear wheel until the internal ring feels snug but comfortable. Adjust the side straps so they form a 'V' shape just below the ears, ensuring the chin strap is secure enough to keep the helmet stable, but loose enough to allow the child to talk or swallow comfortably. For care, clean the outer shell with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. The interior padding can be removed and hand-washed in cool water; ensure it is completely air-dried before reattaching to the helmet.
