D. THE HELMET
to be more quickly picked up and taken away from the interior through
outlet holes on the back of the helmet and in the neck area. The air
inlet cowls also act as a sliding control valve for the head ventilation
system. Open the vent by sliding the inlet cowl backwards. You can
vary the intensity of the head ventilation by using more or fewer of the
inlet cowls The vent is closed when the cowls are in the forward
position.
Ventilation device 4 – interior air
extraction
The S1 PRO is equipped with a constant
air extraction system. Air inside the
helmet or fl owing in through the head
vent is directed through the air outlet
channels in the inner shell and out of the
helmet via the special netting material
inserted in the neck pad as well as the
outlet vents. The reduced pressure
around the back of the neck ensures
constant extraction of interior air – even
when the air inlet scoops are closed
– and thus guarantees a pleasant climate
inside the helmet.
Ventilation device 5 – minimum level of fresh air
The special shaping of the chin vent's upper zone provides the helmet
with a guaranteed minimum ventilation function that ensures a constant
supply of fresh air. The air entering by these means is regulated so that
the rider barely notices it, but so that it guarantees an effective supply
of fresh air from a speed as low as 30 kph (provided the helmet is fully
in the air fl ow when travelling). This function counteracts any build-up of
misting on the visor plate and any excessive concentration of C0
even when the helmet is fully closed.

Anti-Roll-Off System (A.R.O.S.)
The Anti-Roll-Off System specially developed by
SCHUBERTH and provided as a safety feature in every
SCHUBERTH motorcycle helmet, ensures – provided
the chinstrap is closed and correctly adjusted – that
a) the helmet cannot pivot off the head from behind
b) due to the small angle of tilt, the risk of contact between the chin
section of the helmet and the chin or neck of the rider is minimised
and
c) the consequences of the helmet contacting the chest cavity as the
result of an accident are reduced.
Refl ective surfaces
The two large black refl ective safety panels below the visor to left
and right also contribute to the characteristic design of the S1 PRO.
Together with the silver refl ective material on the side zones at the
back of the neck pad, this makes the rider more noticeable on the road
– especially when visibility is poor.
In the case of single-colour helmets without graphics, the SCHUBERTH
logos on the front and back of the helmet are made of refl ective foil.
