WARNING

• Before using the helmet read this booklet and all enclosed documents carefully, in that they contain very important indications on how to use the helmet easily and safely. We recommend you to store it for future reference.
• Failure to observe these instructions may reduce the protection provided by the helmet and consequently put your safety at risk.
• Do not operate or act in such a way that could compromise or reduce the protection provided by the helmet.

CHOICE AND VERIFICATION OF HELMET

WARNING
To exploit the whole protection offered by the helmet, choose the correct size for your head, adjust the retention system correctly and check the taking off.

SIZE

1. In order to determine the correct helmet size, try on helmets of different sizes and choose the one which suits best the shape of your head and which you feel firm once worn and fastened, thus ensuring a great comfort.
2. Should the helmet be too big, it may slide down to cover the eyes or turn slowly to the side while riding.
3. Keep it on for a few minutes and make sure there are no points of extreme pressure that may cause pain or headache.

RETENTION SYSTEM

1. The retention system (strap) is factory-adjusted at a standard length. Before use (see relevant instructions) check that it is correctly pre-adjusted.
2. Make sure the strap is properly fastened and tightened so as to keep the helmet firmly in place.Anyway, before riding, make sure that the strap is well fastened under the chin, as close as possible to the throat, but without being uncomfortable.
3. The correct strap tension should allow normal breathing and swallowing, but without leaving the space of a finger between strap and throat.
   WARNING
   The button which may be present on the strap only prevent its end from flapping once the strap has been fastened properly.

TAKING OFF

1. With the helmet on and the strap securely fastened, try to take the helmet off as shown in fig- ure (A). In case of accident, the different forces at stake and their various directions may result in helmet rotations or they may even cause the helmet to take off if it is not securely fastened.
2. The helmet should not rotate nor move on the head and should not slide off. Should the contrary happen, adjust strap length or change helmet size. Repeat test.

USING THE HELMET

• The helmet is specifically designed for motorcycle and motorbike use. Therefore, it must not be used for different purposes (or different reasons or operations) since, in such cases, it would not guarantee the same protection.
• In case of accident, the helmet represents a protective element, which reduces injuries and head damage. Nevertheless, no helmet can guarantee total safety. The helmet reduces the risk or the gravity of injuries in case of accidents, but the degree of some impacts and the different circumstances may exceed helmet protection. Therefore, ride safely.
• When riding any motorcycle, always wear the helmet properly fastened in order to fully exploit its protection.
• Never wear scarves under the fastening system nor caps of any sort under the hel-met.
• The helmet can muffle traffic noises. However make sure that you can hear essential sounds such as horns and emergency vehicle sirens.
• Always keep the helmet away from heat sources like the exhaust muffler, the top box housing or the interior of a vehicle.
• Do not modify and/or tamper with the helmet (even partially) for any reason: any modifications and/or alterations compromise the safety requirements of the helmet and impair its protection degree. These also make the helmet no longer conform to the homologation standards, mak-ing it unusable and invalidate the warranty.
• Avoid contact between the helmet and gasoline and other solvents; do not apply adhesives or paints to the helmet.
• Helmet damages resulting from accidental falls may not be visible, and any helmet that has been impacted has to be replaced. Always handle your helmet carefully in order not to com-promise or reduce its protection degree.
• If the visor and/or sunscreen that may be present in the helmet are damaged and/or have marked scratches that reduce visibility, their protective treatment has likely been compro-mised, and therefore they must be replaced.
• The visor and/or sunscreen that may be present in the helmet can only be used with the helmet model for which they were designed.
• Use only original accessories and/or spare parts suitable for your specific helmet model.
• In case of doubt about the helmet’s integrity and/or safety, avoid using it and contact an au-thorized dealer to have it checked.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING OF THE HELMET

WARNING

• The helmet and its components may be seriously damaged by some common substances without the damage being visible. Use only lukewarm water and mild soap for maintenance and cleaning operations; dry at room temperature away from the sun and/or heat sources.
• Never use petrol, thinner, benzene, solvents or other chemical substances, paints, and adhe-sives for maintenance and cleaning operations. These can irreparably damage the helmet and its components, modify its optical properties, reduce its mechanical properties and weaken the protective treatment of the visor and/or sunscreen that may be present in the helmet.

Should the PINLOCK® inner visor not be tightly fixed to the visor, simultaneously move, gradually and not excessively, both external adjustment levers turning them upwards, to increase the stretch (Fig.7). The maximum stretch is achieved when the pin adjustment external levers are placed outwards.
WARNING

• Dust between the two visors may cause both surfaces to scratch.
• Scratched PINLOCK® visors and inner visors may cause reduced visibility and should therefore be replaced.
• Regularly check the correct stretch of the PINLOCK® inner visor to prevent it from moving and scratching both surfaces.
• If, in use, the helmet visor fogs up and/or condensation forms between the visors, check that the PINLOCK® inner visor is both properly assembled and stretched
• An excessive and early stretch of the PINLOCK® inner visor may result in excessive adherence against the visor surface and/or permanent deformations with subsequent inability to properly perform future adjustments.
• Intense sweating/breathing, use in particular weather conditions (low temperatures, and/or high humidity and/or sudden changes in temperature and/or heavy rain) and/or intense and prolonged use may affect the performance of the PINLOCK
  ® inner visor, causing fogging or condensation formation. In such cases, to restore the system efficiency after using the helmet, remove the PINLOCK® inner visor from the helmet visor and leave it to dry in warm and dry air. The same procedure should be applied to the helmet, which should be left to dry to remove any humidity that may have formed as a result of the conditions described above.

DISASSEMBLY

1. Disassemble the visor equipped with the PINLOCK® inner visor (see instructions above).
2. Widen the visor and release the PINLOCK® inner visor from the pins (Fig.9).
3. Release the visor.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

• Disassemble the PINLOCK® inner visor from the visor. Using a damp and soft cloth, gently clean it with mild liquid soap. Remove all soap under running water.
• Leave the visor to dry in warm and dry air without wiping it.

• Do not use solvents or chemical products.

VISION PROTECTION SYSTEM (VPS) – (VPS-16)

The exclusive inner VISION PROTECTION SYSTEM (VPS) is a LEXAN™ (*) polycarbonate moulded sunscreen with scratch-resistant/fog-resistant treatment. It is very simple and practical to use: just lower it to activate it or lift it to remove it from your field of vision. It is useful in all sorts of situations, both on long journeys out of town and shorter town trips.
Moreover, the fastening system allows you to assemble and disassemble the sunscreen for ordinary maintenance and cleaning, using no tools.

OPERATION
The VPS mechanism allows you to activate the sunscreen by simply lowering it until the visor field of vision is partially covered. In this way, the light transmittance is reduced as desired. At any time, without operating the visor, the VPS can be deactivated with a simple movement and easily lifted up to restore the normal conditions of visibility and protection guaranteed by the approved helmet visor.

1. To activate the VPS, move the slider as in Fig.10A until you hear a click, confirming that the VPS is in the desired position. The VPS is adjustable in a range of intermediate positions to ensure the best comfort for the user with respect to the terms of use.
2. To deactivate the VPS, move the slider as in Fig.10B.

PRECAUTIONS FOR USE
Current homologation standards (ECE22-06) establish that the minimum light transmittance levels of visors should be no less than 80%; for homologated sunscreens, the minimum transmittance level should be no less than 20%.
This regulation also provides for the simultaneous use of the visor and sunscreen, both as standard.
WARNING

• We recommend you to use the VPS only and solely together with the homologated standard visor, which has a transmittance value greater than 80%.
• The VPS does not replace the protection guaranteed by the visor.
• The VPS can only be activated during daytime and in weather and environmental conditions with a particular light, for example, strong brightness caused by high intensity and/or incidence of sunlight.
• At night and/or in conditions of poor visibility, the VPS should be deactivated.
• Should sunglasses and/or photochromic lenses be used, the VPS should be deactivated.
• Always check that the VPS is properly placed according to the different weather/ environmental conditions and/or to the above mentioned recommendations for use.
• Use the special slider to activate/deactivate the VPS; do not deactivate the VPS by handling it directly.
• Always check that the VPS is clean and that it is properly working in order to avoid scratches and/or anomalous wear on it every time it is activated.
• As for VPS and visor maintenance and cleaning operations, please refer to the appropriate section in the helmet user’s manual.
• The VPS scratch-resistant/fog-resistant treatment highly reduces fogging. However, protracted periods of adverse weather and/or environmental conditions might cause fogging and/or formation of condensation on the VPS, which entails a reduction of visibility and/or sharpness of vision: in this case, deactivate the VPS.
• In case of rain, the direct contact of raindrops with the scratch-resistant/fog-resistant treated VPS quickly reduces sharpness of vision, thus causing scarce visibility: in this case, deactivate the VPS.
• The special VPS fog-resistant treatment is usually sensitive to high temperatures or heat sources. In this case, contaminations caused by contact with other materials might occur. These contaminations will cause marks and stains to come out. In these cases (e.g., when the helmet is kept in the top case on hot days), it is recommended that the VPS does not come into contact with other materials.

DISASSEMBLY

1. Open the helmet visor and lower the VPS completely (see instructions above).
2. Hold the left lateral part of the sunscreen and pull it towards the helmet outside (Fig.11).
3. Follow the same operation on the right side of the helmet.

ASSEMBLY

1. Open the helmet visor completely and move the side slider until the limit stop (see instructions above) (Fig.10A).

2. Check that the right side guide is placed downward (Fig.12); insert the sunscreen right end into the guide until it is fully fastened to the shell housing.

3. Insert the sunscreen left end into the left side guide until it is fastened to the shell housing (Fig.11).
   WARNING

   • Check that the VPS is properly working by activating and deactivating it (see instructions above). If necessary, follow the previous operations mentioned above.
   • Should the VPS opening and closing mechanisms fail or be damaged, please contact a Nolangroup authorised dealer.
   • Do not use the helmet if the VPS has not been properly assembled.
   • Since the VPS does not assure you the same protection as the one provided by the visor, it has to be used only when the helmet visor is lowered.

LINER POSITIONING CONTROL (LPC)

ADJUSTING THE LINER POSITION
The different anatomic shape of riders heads at times requires the position of the helmet to be adapted to the specific head. The LINER POSITIONING CONTROL (LPC) enables the position of the liner to be adjusted. This means that, unlike a standard helmet, the position of the helmet on the rider’s head can be changed without changing the size of the helmet, making it adaptable to multiple needs.
To adjust the liner, proceed as follows after releasing the liner rear part (see instructions above).

1. Release the liner adjustment rear tab from the central locking pin on the liner rear frame (Fig.23).

2. Pull the adjustment rear tab and fasten it to the central pin in one of the other 7 possible click positions.
   By pulling the liner adjustment rear tab, the helmet is gradually positioned higher on the head, click after click.

3. Fully reassemble the liner into the helmet (see instructions above) being careful to properly insert the adjustment tab into the cavity between the outer shell and the polystyrene inner shell.

4. Put on the helmet and check that the helmet is comfortable and suitably positioned. If not, adjust it again.
   WARNING
   After adjusting the position of the liner, put on and fasten the helmet to check the correct adjustment of the chin strap (see attached label). Check also the correct helmet fit on your head in riding position setup, as well as its easy taking off – see “CHOICE AND VERIFICATION OF THE HELMET” instructions above.

  • Do not remove the stickers shown in Fig.26 from the helmet as they could provide useful information to the emergency services.
  • Should the Nolan Emergency Release System (NERS) fail or be damaged, please contact a Nolangroup authorised dealer.
  • Use the Nolan Emergency Release System (NERS) for providing aid only if you have proven expertise and qualifications in the field. If in doubt, call the appropriate emergency services.

WIND PROTECTOR

(Available as standard or accessory/spare part)
This accessory allows improved helmet performance under certain conditions of use. The Wind Protector reduces unpleasant infiltrations of air under the chin. See Fig.27 for assembly and disassembly instructions.

VENTILATION SYSTEM

The ventilation system of the helmet consists of:

• Lower ventilation
  It allows ventilation around the mouth area and conveys the air directly on the visor, thus reducing fogging. See Fig.28 for opening and closing operations.

• Top ventilation
  It provides direct ventilation to the head upper area, even at low speed. See Fig.29 for opening and closing operations.

• Rear ventilation
  It is integrated in a rear spoiler and allows warm and stale air to flow out, ensuring an optimum comfort inside the helmet (Fig.30).

SETTING UP THE N-COM – HELMET COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS

(Available depending on the product version)

• Your helmet is factory-preset to be equipped with the N-Com communication system.
• If your helmet is homologated according to ECE/UN Regulation No.22, it has also been tested and homologated with the N-Com system installed. Installing a system other than the N-Com affects the helmet’s regulatory compliance.
• During the communication system installation (see the specific instructions in the N-Com kit), it will be necessary to remove from the helmet the foam material fillers located in the polystyrene cheek pads next to the N-Com earphones housings.
• The above-mentioned fillers should only be removed if the helmet is used with a compatible N-Com system installed.
