VPS Operation
The VPS mechanism allows activating the sunscreen by simply lowering it until it partially covers the visor
field of vision. In this way, the desired light transmittance reduction is achieved. At any time, independent
of the visor, the VPS can be deactivated with a simple movement and easily pulled up to restore the
normal conditions of visibility and protection guaranteed by the approved helmet visor.
To deactivate the VPS push the control lever towards the inside of the helmet and then push it towards
the front part of the helmet (Fig. 4) until you hear the click, which means the lever and the VPS are
correctly in place.
To activate the VPS push the control lever towards the inside of the helmet and then push it towards
the rear part of the helmet (Fig. 5) until you hear the click, which means the lever and the VPS are
correctly in place.
Precautions for Use
The current approval standards (ECE22-05) state that the visor minimum light transmittance levels must
be greater than 80% when riding at night and not less than 50% when riding during the day. For this
reason, when riding during the day under particularly bright weather conditions, e.g. very strong sunlight
caused by high intensity and/or incidence of the sunbeams, the use of sunglasses - which have a
transmittance much lower than 50% - turns out to be advisable, if not absolutely necessary, to reduce
eye fatigue on long trips. Sunglasses reduce the risk of direct dazzling as opposed to the use of mere
approved visors. However, the use of sunglasses makes it difficult to perform in emergency situations
when the maximum visibility range of the visor must be quickly restored. Just think, for example, of what
happens when you enter a tunnel or when unexpected changes in environmental brightness occur.
Thanks to its operating mechanism, the VPS makes these operations much easier.
WARNING!!!
• We recommend using the VPS only and solely together with the approved standard visor, which
has a transmittance value greater than 80%.
• The VPS does not replace the protection guaranteed by the visor.
• The VPS can be used only during the day and under the environmental conditions described
before.
• At night and/or in conditions of poor visibility, the VPS MUST be deactivated.
• Always check that the VPS is properly positioned according to the different weather/environmental
conditions and/or to the above mentioned usage recommendations.
• Always make sure that the VPS is clean and that it is operating properly in order to avoid scratches
and/or anomalous wear on it every time it is activated.
• Please refer to the proper section in the helmet user's manual for the VPS and visor maintenance
and cleaning operations.
2.1) VPS disassembly
In order to disassemble the VPS it is necessary to first disassemble the visor. See paragraph 1.1) of this
instruction manual.
2.1.1 Remove the rear part of the VPS from the mechanism and move it forward to release it from the
shell (Fig. 6).
2.1.2 Follow the same steps on the other side of the helmet.
