F. CARE AND MAINTENANCE

5. SUN VISOR

5.1 CLEANING THE SUN VISOR
The sun visor should only be cleaned with a soft and, if necessary, slightly
damp cloth (we recommend a microfiber cloth).
Only use tepid water (< 20 °C) for cleaning. Never on any account clean
the face shield or sun visor with petrol, solvent, a window or glass cleaner
or other cleaning agents containing alcohol.
The face shield should not be soaked in water even if it is very dirty on the
outside, as this will severely reduce the surface hardness and thus the
durability of the anti-fog/anti-scratch coating.
Never attach labels, adhesive tape or stickers to the face shield or sun
visor.
Stubborn dirt on the outer surface of the face shield (e.g. dried-on insect
remains) can be easily removed by covering the closed visor with a moist
or wet cloth and allowing the dirt to soften for around 30 minutes to 1 hour.

6. HELMET INSPECTION

Check for helmet damages. If your helmet is damaged or cracked, stop
using it immediately and replace it.
Check for worn or damaged parts. Plastic components may wear out over
time. If you find worn or damaged parts, replace them or purchase a new
helmet. See "Replacement parts" for information on parts replacement.
To reduce the risk of serious injury or death, always inspect your helmet
before each ride.
WARNING
The helmet should be replaced after 3 to 5 years after the date of
purchase, depending on use and care. Although the outer shell is in
principle capable of a longer service life, the occurrence of material fatigue
and wear to other components, as well as the overall action of the helmet
and the unknown conditions in which the helmet has been used, make it
advisable for your own safety to replace the helmet after this period of use.
Excessive heat (e.g. exhaust heat) can cause damage to the helmet
esthetics, the inner shell of the helmet and the interior lining.

• Keep helmet away from pets and other animals;
