CORRECT FITTING
Make sure that the helmet fits correctly as shown below, the helmet must NOT be too low
or high on the head because it will interfere with your line of sight. Eyes should be central to
the eye aperture. Please note that the visor found in our off-road helmets is adjustable. Try
the off-road helmet with the visor in all positions prior to purchase in order to satisfy your-
self that the helmet meets your requirements. SCOTT Sports SA shall not be liable for any
damages and losses due to incorrect fitting.

GOGGLE CARE AND FIT
It is absolutely essential that the goggles worn with all off-road helmets are always clean
and the lens is replaced regularly. See the manufacturer's instructions supplied with your
chosen goggle type. Before purchasing your goggles, ensure the goggles fit your helmet
correctly and that they do not interfere with your vision and allow the maximum peripheral
vision. We recommend SCOTT Goggles for all SCOTT Helmets. SCOTT Sports SA shall not
be liable for any damages and losses due to not complying goggles.
REMOVING INNER LINER AND CHEEK PADS
To remove the cheek pads, gently pull the padding off from the three snap buttons hold-
ing it in place and pull out the retaining flap from underneath the lower helmet beading.
Repeat on the other side. To remove the liner, unsnap the rear portion of the inner located
towards the rear of the helmet. Gently pull out the liner without forcing the liner out from its
front clips located at the top portion of the visor opening. Reverse the steps to reinstall liner.
• V. CLEANING YOUR HELMET
Do not use any solvents, hot water, glass cleaners, or gasoline to clean your helmet. These
materials can cause severe damage to the helmet and weaken its structural integrity. Any
such damage to the helmet can prevent the helmet from performing properly in the event
of an accident which could result in serious injury or death. To clean your helmet, it is best
to use lukewarm water with a damp soft cloth. Rinse off and dry using a soft cloth. Clean
your visor with warm water and rinse well. Do not use any cleaners or solvents to clean your
visor as they may damage the coating of the visor. SCOTT helmets come with a removable
liner to make the cleaning and upkeep of your helmet interior easy and hassle free. Remove
the liner and cheek pads and hand wash with normal detergent in cold water. Let them air
dry. Do not use a washing machine or tumble dry. Hand wash and air dry only. For more
cheek pad and liner sizing, to maximize comfort, please check with your local dealer for lin-
er/cheek pad sizing options. SCOTT Sports SA shall not be liable for any damages and loss-
es due to improper cleaning.
DO NOT MODIFY YOUR HELMET
550
It is extremely dangerous to modify your helmet by drilling holes, cutting the shell and/or absorp-
tion liner. Any such actions will weaken the helmet and may cause serious injury in the event of an
accident. Removing any parts such as, vents, liners, cheek pads, mouth guards, rubber trimming,
etc. before use will also disrupt the intended design of the helmet and may expose you to severe
injury or death in the event of an accident. Do not paint your helmet as the chemicals of the paint
may adversely affect the materials used in your helmet, thereby weakening it. SCOTT Sports SA
shall not be liable for any damages and losses due to improper modifications.
DO NOT MISUSE YOUR HELMET
Riding with your helmet hanging from the helmet strap, exposing your helmet to extreme heat
350 EVO
sources, using your helmet as a stool / c hair, throwing your helmet, spraying your helmet with
chemicals (such as insecticide / i nsect repellant) or hanging your helmets from your mirrors or
any other angled support that can cause the helmet to fall, are all ways in which you can cause
serious damage to your helmet. These types of misuse will reduce your helmet's ability to pro-
tect you properly in the event of an accident. Make sure your helmet is in proper working con-
dition before every use. Always check your helmet for loose screws, cracks, faulty visor, etc. pri-
or to every use. Be sure that the liners and cheek pads are all properly in place and that the chin
strap system is secure. Exposure to sunlight may cause colour fading. SCOTT Sports SA shall
not be liable for any damages and losses due to improper use.
