1.ABOUT THE R1 EVO SMART CYCLING HELMET
1.1General Information
This product is a bicycle helmet. Do not use it for any other purpose than riding a bicycle. If you use the helmet for anything else, it may not provide sufficient protection in an accident.
Sena recommends that you choose a helmet which provides the most coverage, as a helmet that covers more of your head may provide additional protection. Always wear your bicycle helmet low in the front to protect the forehead, as this area is most likely to be impacted in
a bicycle crash. Make sure the helmet fits comfortably and is tightly fastened at all times.
WARNING
•Your helmet will not protect against injury in all types of accidents. Even while wearing a helmet, low speed accidents may result in serious head injury or death. A bicycle helmet will not protect against injuries to the spine, neck or face. In the event of any impact, do not use this helmet. There may be damage invisible to you, which may reduce the ability of the helmet to reduce the harmful effects of a blow to the head. Such helmet should be returned to Sena for inspection, or destroyed and replaced.
•Do not modify or remove any original part of the helmet. Do not use heat damaged helmets. Heat damaged helmets will appear to have uneven or have bubbly surfaces.
•This User’s Guide and the stickers inside your helmet contain many instructions and warnings about your helmet. It is important for you to understand everything communicated in them before your first ride. If you do not, please contact your authorized Sena Retailer with any questions you may have. Failure to follow any of the provided instructions or warnings could void your warranty, and most importantly, could result in severe personal injury or death.
If you are a parent or guardian and this helmet is for your child, please take the time to read this manual as you should make sure your child understands everything in this User’s Guide.

1.4 Wearing the Helmet
1.4.1 How to Wear The Helmet
For proper use, the helmet must sit level on the head and low on the forehead. The Sena helmet uses a simple, quick-release buckle system that, once adjusted, can be buckled and unbuckled without changing the adjustment. For proper use, the straps must be tight and evenly tensioned.
To properly wear your helmet:
1.Position the helmet on your head with the front covering your forehead. If the helmet is tipped back and is not covering your forehead then the helmet is not in the proper position.
2.Position the strap adjuster centered, just below your ears.
WARNING: Always wear the helmet in the proper position on your head with the front of the helmet covering your forehead for maximum protection. Never wear the helmet tipped back as the helmet will be in the improper position causing your forehead to be exposed. All fitment adjustments need to be made with the helmet in the proper position.
3.Position the helmet low on your forehead with the buckle under the chin and back against the throat. The straps should fit comfortably around both ears.
4.After removing the chinstrap pad, adjust the chinstrap tension at the buckle with the strap adjuster in the proper position. Adjust the tension so the chinstrap is tight and comfortable by pulling the chinstrap end through the buckle to either tighten or loosen as needed.

5.Secure the excess strap with O-ring and then attach the chinstrap pad. Always wear the helmet with the chinstrap buckle fastened and the chinstrap pulled tight and positioned back against the throat. With the strap buckled and the helmet positioned, you should feel the chinstrap pull firmly against your chin as you open your mouth. When properly adjusted the helmet will wrap around your head and cradle it with firm, but comfortable pressure.
6.Your helmet is equipped with an adjustable retention system which helps stabilize the helmet in the correct position when you ride. When wearing the helmet, turn the retention system knob clockwise to tighten the helmet or counterclockwise to loosen the helmet.
7.To change the height of the retention system, firmly pull or push the retention system upward or downward to a different position.

WARNING: For maximum protection, this helmet must be fitted and attached properly to the wearer’s head in accordance with the following instructions. If after adjustment the helmet does not fit properly, do not use the helmet. Return it to the retailer or Sena.

1.4.2 Helmet Fitment Check
With the retention system knob turned clockwise until comfortably tight and the chinstrap buckled under the chin and back against the throat, grab the helmet with both hands and try to remove it by rolling the helmet forward and backward as far as you can. This is an important test to ensure that the helmet fits correctly. When you do this, you should feel the chinstrap pull against the underside of your chin and the helmet will resist any movement. If this isn’t the case, tighten the chinstrap and try it again until this happens. If you cannot achieve the proper fit, DO NOT USE THIS HELMET. Replace it with a different size until the correct fit is achieved.
Also, for a proper Helmet Fitment Check if you can roll the helmet forward such that it blocks your vision or if you can roll the helmet backwards such that your forehead is not covered, tighten the chinstrap and the retention system and try again until you cannot roll the helmet forward or backwards.
WARNING
•Do not wear anything underneath your helmet, such as a cap, hood, bundled hair, headphones, or barrettes, as the helmet may loosen or come off. Do not wear anyone else’s helmet and don’t loan your helmet to anyone else.
•Always make sure the buckle is properly fastened before you ride. Failure to follow this instruction could result in serious personal injury, as the helmet may not stay in position while riding or during a fall. For proper use, make sure the loose end of the chinstrap is tucked through the rubber “O” ring.
•Check for proper fit and adjustment often, including each time you wear it, and periodically during use.
•This helmet has been designed for recreational bicycling. This helmet has not been approved and is not intended for extreme uses such as downhill racing at high speeds, jumping or leaping with a fully suspended bicycle, snow sports, water sports, motor sports, street hockey, playground activities, or other activities where face, ear, or greater protection or coverage is desired.
•Always wear a helmet when bicycling. When you get off your bicycle, remove your helmet. Do not wear a helmet while climbing trees, in play areas, on playground equipment, or, at any time while not riding a bicycle. Parents: Instruct children to follow this warning. Failure to follow this warning could result in serious personal injury, death or death by strangulation.
