Maintenance - SUOMY Stellar Bedienungsanleitung

The integrity of the shell and of the inside are essential to assure
EN
maximum performances in terms of safety.
STELLAR was studied to absorb crashes through a partial
destruction of the shell or some of its parts that could be damaged
after a crash even if it is not readily visibly. If the helmet suffers
further stress it might not be able to offer the maximum level of
protection.
Do not use a helmet that suffered severe blows even though the
damage is not readily visible; if the helmet is damaged it must be
replaced. It is extremely dangerous to modify the helmet by sticking
or gluing anything on it. Do not cut or punch the helmet's shell, do
not insert screws or paint it.
Do not change the internal lining of the helmet, particularly never
cut or change the inside polystyrene padding: changes to the shape
of the internal polystyrene shell can affect the safety features of
the helmet.
Damaged visors may limit visibility especially at night and must be
immediately replaced with regularly certified visors according to the
certification regulations in force.
Do not apply paint and/or adhesives on the visor.
Do not remove homologation label from the visor.
USE
Only use original Suomy accessories and spare parts or those
specifically indicated by Suomy for the specific model: this is
the only way to assure reliability, safety and compatibility with
the helmet used. The use of non original components and/or
accessories make the warranty void (see warranty conditions on
page 27) and can affect the safety requirements.

MAINTENANCE

To clean the shell use water and mild soap; let the helmet dry at
room temperature, never expose it to heat.
Cleaning the helmet with solvents, petrol by-products or chemical
substances, the application of stickers or paint could affect the
structure of the shell, thus affecting the safety features, even if the
damage is not readily visible. Do not paint, or apply stickers, petrol
or other chemical solvents to this helmet.
To clean the internal lining, just hand wash at 30°C maximum,
exclusively using mild soap.
To clean the fixed internal lining use a damp cloth and mild soap.
The fabric lining, even if they are part of removable elements, must
not be soaked in water when they are applied to or paired with an
internal padding, either rigid or soft.
Dry the pieces at room temperature, away from sunlight and without
exposing them to heat.
Clean the visor as follows:
1. Remove the visor from the helmet (see paragraph VISOR -
removal)
2. Rinse it with running warm water only on the outside.
3. Wash the visor with water and mild soap using a soft cloth to
remove the dirt.
4. Rinse with warm water.
5. Dry with a soft and delicate cloth
6. Put the visor back on the helmet (see paragraph VISOR –
Assembly)
Verify that the cloth used does not leave any traces that could stick
to the surface of the visor after washing. Do not use paper cloths to
clean and dry the visor.
