IMPORTANT USER INFORMATION
Wind Deflector removal and replacement: a Wind Deflector (14) is available inside the helmet box. To install it,
slide it in the gap between the front chin protective foam and the rubber trim, until it locks into place. To remove it, pull
it out. This accessory cannot be used with the Chin Curtain (12) installed.
See Figure 19, page 10.
Never grab your helmet by the Wind Deflector (14), as this could cause the
helmet to fall on the ground, causing damage to the outer and inner shells.
Do not place the helmet on a flat surface for a long period with the Wind Deflector (14) installed, otherwise the Wind
Deflector (14) may deform.
Breath Deflector removal and replacement: a Breath Deflector (15) is available inside the helmet box. To install it,
slide it in the gap between the front chin protective foam and the rubber trim, until the hooking mechanism locks it. To
remove it, pull it out.

shells.
8. INTRODUCING A-HEAD FIT CUSTOMIZATION
This Alpinestars' helmet contains the 'A-HEAD' adjustment technology, which allows the fit to be further customized to
the rider's preference for the height and angle at which the helmet sits on the head, allowing for an ultra-specific set-
up that can be adapted for the rider's unique fit. The A-HEAD Fitment System is made up of two patented adjustment
structures:
– The Top Fit: is for adjusting the fit on the top crown of the head.
– The Neck Fit: is for adjusting the fit of the neck pad.
Top Fit Adjustment
When the head shape of a user does not follow the lining of the helmet, pressure points may occur, commonly on the
sides or upper corners of the head.
The A-HEAD top adjustment can help this by allowing the Top Pad (10) of the helmet to be adjustable between three
height level positions on the mounting points as shown in Figure 21, page 10.
At time of helmet purchase, the Top Pad (10) is mounted in position 1 of the height levels on the four mounting points
located on the helmet shell - two in the front of the helmet shell and two in the rear of the helmet shell.
It is recommended to keep the Top Pad (10) in this default position, as this keeps the helmet closer to your head.
To change the position of the Top Pad (10), take the end of the two leg connectors in the front, and pull them away from
the mounting points. The leg connectors should disconnect from the mounting points. These can then be re-inserted
into the adjacent height level position (position 2), in order to adjust the height.
Important! NEVER use the helmet with the Top Pad (10) removed.
Make sure the Top Pad (10) is well fixed in your helmet before you use your
helmet. A loose Top Pad (10) will compromise the fit of your helmet.
