Retention System - SCHUBERTH S1 Pro Manual

D. THE HELMET

8. RETENTION SYSTEM

The retention system of the S1 PRO consists of a chinstrap that is
additionally secured with neck bands at the back of the helmet shell
(the anti-roll-off system, see section D.13.).
CHINSTRAP WITH DOUBLE D-RING FASTENER
The double D-ring fastener is easy to use and allows you to adjust the
length of the chinstrap very precisely each time you put on the helmet.
Fastening and tightening
1. Thread the end of the chinstrap through the double D-ring fastener
as illustrated in the adjacent diagram.
2. Tighten the chinstrap by pulling on the end of the strap. The
chinstrap should fi t fi rmly but comfortably against your chin.
Tip:
To check that the helmet sits as comfortably as possible, we
recommend that, having put it on, you take hold of the helmet
at the sides with both hands and swivel it slightly on your head
till you fi nd the most comfortable positioning; now readjust the
chinstrap accordingly.

3. Fold the strap over and fasten it with the press-stud to prevent the
end of the strap fl apping in the wind.
Loosening and opening
1. Pull the little red tab of the double
D-ring fastener to loosen the
chinstrap.
2. Take hold of the D-rings and pull
them apart.
3. Pull the end of the chinstrap from
the Chinstrap with double D-ring fastener.
Tip:
If you are unfamiliar with the double D-ring type of fastener, we
recommend using the fastener system when not wearing the
helmet, then practicing its use with the helmet in place.
Caution:
Never ride without making sure the chinstrap is correctly
fastened, adjusted to fi t and properly positioned.
If the chinstrap is not correctly adjusted or fastened, the helmet
could be displaced in the event of an accident.
Caution:
Never open the chinstrap while riding.
