HOW TO CHOOSE

YOUR HELMET

DETERMINE THE PERFECT FIT

1.Measure your head size: wrap a measuring tape around your head 2.5cm above your eyebrows. This will establish the longest measurement around your head.

2.Choose the helmet which best fits your head size. When in doubt between two sizes, always choose the smaller of the two.

TRY THE HELMET ON

Open the helmet holding it by the ends of the locking straps; not by the lock itself as it may break. If the helmet does not fit tightly, then it is too big for you. If you are not familiar with using a helmet, you may have doubts about putting on a helmet that is too tight. Although you may find it difficult to put on the helmet, please use the smallest size possible.

CHECK THE FIT AND

MAKE SURE OF THE SIZE

1.You must make sure that the inside of the helmet covers your entire head.

2.You must make sure that the front of the helmet adjusts to your forehead.

3.Check that the side pads are in contact with your cheeks.

4.You must make sure that there is no space between the inside of the helmet and the back of your neck.

5.Now, take the helmet with one hand on each side. Without moving your head, try to move the helmet upwards and downwards. When you try to move the helmet, you should feel how the skin of your face and head stretches. If you can move the helmet easily, the helmet is too big, try a smaller size.

CHECK THE LOCKING SYSTEM

1.Tighten the locking system as much as possible without causing yourself pain. The ends of the straps of the locking system must be secured to your chin.

2.With the lock knotted, place both hands on the rear part of the helmet and

try to take the helmet off pushing it forward.	IT
3. Then, place your hands on the front part of the helmet above your forehead
and try to take the helmet off pushing backwards.
4. If the helmet starts moving in any direction, then do not use it. This means

that either the helmet is too big or the locking system is not tight enough.	DE
	DE
WARNING: Tightening the locking system properly is extremely impor-
tant. If the strap does not touch your chin or is too loose, try to stretch

the locking system downwards with your fingertips. This means that you
!!!have not placed the straps through the two locking rings correctly. Try again. If your
locking system is loose or unknotted, an impact can cause your helmet to fall off,
leaving your head without any type of protection. Do not use a helmet which you
cantakeoffyourheadwhilethelockingsystemisknotted,giventhatthiscouldfall
off in case of accident causing your death or severe injuries.

SAFETY

RECOMMENDATIONS

1. NO HELMET CAN PROTECT YOU AGAINST ALL POSSIBLE IMPACTS AT LOW AND HIGH SPEED

In any case, in order to have maximum protection for your head, the helmet must fit perfectly and the locking system must be knotted securely under your chin.

The helmet should allow you to have peripheral vision while you are wearing it. If your helmet is too big, it can move on your head when you are driving your motorcycle which can cause it to fall off in case of accident or even block your vision while driving.

In the first case, your helmet would not protect your head in case of accident and this may result in a severe injury or even death.

In the second case, if your vision is impaired, this can cause an accident.

2. ONLY USE A HELMET THAT COMPLETELY HOLDS YOUR ENTIRE HEAD AND TIGHTEN THE LOCKING SYSTEM SECURELY UNDER YOUR CHIN

Open the helmet with your hands and put it on your head. Please check to see if the helmet fits correctly according to the list of points to be checked. Pull the straps of the locking system, not the mechanisms. Pulling the mechanisms could break them.

If you do not feel the helmet fitting snug, it is probably too big for you. In order to knot a ring locking system, you need to take the end of the strap and pull it through both rings and stretch the strap against your neck.

If the strap of the locking system is too loose, in case of impact, your helmet could fall off your head, leaving it unprotected, resulting in a very severe injury or even death.

3. HELMETS ARE DESIGNED TO ABSORB
3. HELMETS ARE DESIGNED TO ABSORB
ONE IMPACT ONLY	FR
	FR
After your helmet has protected you from an impact you must replace it with
a new one.
Your helmet has been designed to distribute the energy of the impact over a

large area. Even if your helmet looks like it is not visibly affected, its usable	IT
life ended after the impact.	IT
For instance: an accident where you and your helmet fall down on the ground
or you crash against any object. In the event of collision, the inside of the

helmet absorbs the impact and this remains compacted. Once this happens,

your helmet no longer has the capacity to absorb impacts.
Your helmet may look perfect but it will no longer offer you the same pro-	DE
tection in case of accident. When in doubt, for instance, if the helmet drops
or crashes against any object and you are no longer sure whether the rule

of the one impact may apply in this case, please contact your LS2 supplier
before using it again.
4. CLEAN YOUR HELMET CAREFULLY
Never use hot or salty water, gasoline, glass cleaners or any other solvent.
Your helmet could suffer severe damage due to these substances although no
visible damage is appreciated externally. A helmet deteriorated or weakened
by a cleaning agent may not offer protection in case of accident, causing
severe injuries or death.
The correct form of cleaning a helmet is mixing five or six drops of neutral
soap with half a litre of warm water. Introduce a soft cloth in the soapy solu-
tion and clean the helmet with the damp cloth.

5. NEVER MODIFY YOUR HELMET

Punching holes, cutting the shell or the material on the inside is very dangerous. Modifications may weaken the helmet. Modifying the locking system may also weaken the helmet and it may break in case of accident. Removing parts such as the chin-strap or other parts may leave cutting edges of the shell uncovered which may be very dangerous in case of accident. Always use original LS2 spare parts: screens, screws and other parts.

6. DO NOT MISTREAT YOUR HELMET

Never drive with the helmet hanging from the locking system and do not hang the helmet on a support, for example, a mirror. Do not sit on the helmet and do not throw it. You should not expose the inside of the helmet to sun light or sources which generate excessive heat such as heaters, which may produce temperatures higher than 50ºC (122ºF). Avoid exposing the helmet to anti-mosquito sprays. If you do not treat your helmet correctly, the shell and the inside could weaken and it could lose its capacity to protect you in case of accident.

7. DO NOT REPAINT THE HELMET

We do not recommend repainting the helmet given that the paint may damage the materials used in its manufacturing. A helmet damaged and weakened by a paint agent may not offer protection in case of accident, causing severe injuries or even death. If you need to paint your helmet, please contact your LS2 supplier.

8. ALWAYS CHECK YOUR HELMET BEFORE DRIVING YOUR MOTORCYCLE

8.1.Check the screen and the screws of the mechanism and retighten them if necessary.

8.2.Check possible impacts or breaks in the helmet. Acids (for example, acids from batteries) may deteriorate the screen.

8.3. Plastic components may deteriorate after 5 years from their manufac - turing date. If you find any deteriorated component, replace it or buy a new

one. If these parts get loose or lost while driving, your vision may be blocked ES which could provoke an accident, causing you severe injuries or even death.

8.4.Check the safety of the locking system.

8.5.Make sure that centre and side pads are firmly secured before using the helmet.

9. KEEP THE SCREEN OF THE HELMET IN	FR
9. KEEP THE SCREEN OF THE HELMET IN
GOOD CONDITION
If your screen is too scratched, replace it with a new one. Bad visibility causes

accidents. Clean your screen with soapy water and dry it with a soft and dry	IT
cloth. Never use gasoline, glass cleaners or any other solvent.
Do not stick any adhesives or adhesive tape to the screen since this would

weaken its protection. This can damage the screen. Do not drive with a fo-

gged up screen. Bad vision can provoke an accident, causing severe injuries
or even death.	DE
10. REMEMBER: HELMETS SOFTEN IMPORTANT
SOUNDS AND REDUCE WARNINGS OF ENVIRON-
MENTAL CHANGES
When using a helmet, especially of the integral variety, in a way, you are
isolated from the exterior. Climatic changes may catch you off guard: sud-
den storms, temperature changes while entering and exiting tunnels or going
through mountain passes may cause humidity or lack of visibility on your
screen. Do not drive with a fogged up screen.
Using a helmet reduces your ability to hear the sound of traffic, especially
at high speed. When using an integral helmet, having the screen opened or
closed makes a big difference. For safe driving, analyze how the level of speed
and the type of helmet affect the perception of the road conditions and whe-
ther the screen has to be opened or closed.

¿COMO ESCOGER TU CASCO?

DETERMINA EL AJUSTE PERFECTO

1.Mide la talla de tu cabeza: pasa una cinta alrededor de tu cabeza a una altura de 2.5 cm por encima de tus cejas. Esto establecerá la medida más larga alrededor de tu cabeza.

2.Elige el casco que más se adapte a tu talla de cabeza. Si dudas entre dos tallas, elige siempre la más pequeña.

PRUÉBATE EL CASCO

Abre el casco sujetándolo por los extremos de las cintas de cierre; no del propio cierre, pues éste podría romperse. Si el casco no te aprieta, entonces es demasiado grande para ti.

Si no estás familiarizado con el uso del casco, puede que dudes sobre en - cajarte un casco demasiado apretado. Aunque sientas que te resulta di - ficil colocarte el casco, por favor, usa la talla más pequeña que puedas.

REVISA EL AJUSTE Y

ASEGURA LA MEDIDA

1.Debes estar seguro de que el interior del casco te cubre toda la cabeza.

2.Debes estar seguro de que el frontal del casco se ajusta a tu frente.

3.Revisa que las almohadillas laterales estén en contacto con tus mejillas.

4.Debes estarseguro de que no hayespacio entre el interiordel cascoytu nuca.

5.Ahora coge el casco con una mano por cada lateral. Sin mover la cabeza, intenta mover el casco arriba y abajo lateralmente. Deberías sentir como se estira la piel de tu cara y cabeza cuando intentes mover el casco. Si mueves el casco con demasiada facilidad, es que el casco es demasiado grande. Prueba con una talla más pequeña.

REVISA EL SISTEMA DE CIERRE

1.Aprieta el sistema de cierre tanto como te sea posible sin llegar a causarte dolor. Los extremos de las cintas del sistema de cierre deben quedar sujetos a tu barbilla.

2.Con el cierre atado pon tus dos manos en la parte trasera del casco y trata

de quitarte el casco empujando hacia delante.

3.A continuación pon tus manos en la parte frontal del casco por encima de tu frente y trata de quitarte el casco haciendo presión hacia atrás.

4.Si el casco empieza a salirse en alguna dirección, entonces no lo uses. Esto significará que el casco es demasiado grande o que el sistema de cierre no está

lo sificientemente sujeto. DE

!!!A p r e ta r e l s i s te m a d e c i e r r e c o r r e c ta m e n te e s e x t r e m a - damente imp or tante . Si la cinta no toca tu barbilla o é s ta

está demasiado suelta, intenta estirar hacia abajo el siste - ma de cierre con las yemas de tus dedos . E s to signif ica que no has c o l o c a d o c o r r e c ta m e n te l a s c i n ta s a t ra vé s d e l a s d o s a n i l l a s d e l cierre . Inténtalo otra ve z .

Si tu sistema de cierre está flojo o suelto, un impacto puede hacer que tu casco se desprenda, dejando tu cabeza sin ningún tipo de protección . No use s un casco que puedas quitar te de la cab e za e s- tando atado el sistema de cierre , ya que éste podría salirse en caso de accidente ocasionandote la muer te o grave s le sione s .
