TO OPEN/ClOSE SHIElD
Pull the shield latch tab on lower left side of the
shield outward to release latch system and then
raise the shield. To close the shield, push down the
shield until the shield latch tab fully latches into
place.
Apply one or two drops of supplied silicone lubricant
around the edge trim and on other moving parts and
wipe off with soft tissue paper to maintain proper
operation.
WARNING:
If your shield becomes too scratched or
uncleanable, replace it with a new one. Impaired
visibility causes accidents. Use a solution of
mild soap or detergent and lukewarm water to
clean your shield. Rinse well with clean water,
and wipe off with a soft cloth. Never use petrol,
thinner, benzene or any other solvents. There
are many "aggressive" cleaners on the market,
including some supposed to be specifically for
use on shield. Arai strongly recommends that
you do not use any such products to clean your
shield as some of their ingredients may have
damaging effects on the shield and other plastic
parts installed on your helmet. Do not apply
stickers or adhesive tape to the shield, as this
will weaken the hard coating. If tinted, the shield
is for daylight use only.
TO OPERATE DEMIST SYSTEM
Demist system is incorporated in the shield latch
system to allow more rapid clearing on any interior
mist with the shield remaining latched in place.
Simply push the shield latch tab firmly forward to
accomplish the small gap that will assist moisture
dispersal.
