WARNINGS and INSTRUCTIONS
1. Always be careful when riding. Even though
this helmet meets or exceeds global standards
applicable to helmet manufacturing, still
it cannot fully protect the user from all
possible shocks at both high and low speeds.
Every type of safety gear has its limitations,
and a head injury is indeed possible in an
accident even when a helmet is being worn.
Nonetheless, in order to be protected from a
fatal accident or permanent disability due to
a head injury, the helmet size must absolutely
correspond to the size of your head;
moreover, the chin strap must be adequately
tightened, as indicated in this manual.
2. This helmet has been designed so as to
absorb the impact by the partial destruction of
the shell and/or internal damper. This damage
may not in fact be visible. Consequently,
should the helmet be subjected to an
impact, even in the event of simply being
dropped on the ground, it must be returned
for verification, replacement or disposal,
regardless of whether any deterioration is
apparent. In case of doubt and if you're not
sure whether this rule applies to the shock
in question, contact your retailer prior to any
subsequent use of the helmet.
3. Like all products, a helmet can become
deteriorated
use conditions. Before each use, be sure
to inspect the helmet for any sign of
deterioration or damage. The helmet size
must always correspond to your head size. If
such is no longer the case, then the helmet
has expanded and you'll need to replace it.
Never wear a damaged helmet. Even if the
helmet is not damaged or deteriorated, it
is recommended to buy a new one every
five years.
4. No modification is ever to be made to
the helmet. Never drill or cut any helmet
component. Even the slightest modification
can degrade the helmet and, as a result,
reduce its protective capacity in the event
of an impact.
5. Handle the helmet with the utmost
precaution. Never sit on it or throw it on the
ground. Never ride with the helmet dangling
on any part of the bike.
6. Never use gasoline, petroleum products,
chemicals or any solvent when cleaning the
helmet, the shell or the visor. Moreover,
2
never expose your helmet to the vapours of
over time under
these solvents (e.g. by leaving it on the plug
of your motorcycle gas tank). The helmet may
become seriously damaged by these chemical
agents, without being readily noticeable, thus
compromising your protection. Only use mild
soap, warm water and a soft cloth to clean
and wipe both the helmet and visor.
7. Do not apply paint, stickers, petrol or other
solvents on this helmet.
For adequate protection, this helmet must fit
closely and be securely attached. Any helmet
that has sustained a violent impact should
be replaced.
8. No helmet shall be modified from its
original specification
Accessories must be fitted in accordance
with the helmet manufacturer's instructions.
Only accessories evaluated during the
type approval procedure of the helmet
can guarantee that the performance of the
modified protective helmet is covered by the
type approval."
9. When wearing the helmet, your hearing will
be less acute, and both your field of vision
and head movements will be constrained. Be
sure to adapt your riding to account for this
sensory impairment.
10. Dry your helmet at room temperature.
Never expose it to a temperature above
around 160°F/70°C, which could occur
normal
for example if your helmet is left on the
passenger seat or in the boot of a car.
Always keep the helmet far from heat
sources, such as the bike's exhaust pipe or
the top case.
11. For any question or comment regarding
your helmet, please contact the SHARK
Company or your nearest retailer.
