Introduction
Congratulations on your choice of a model made by MT HELMETS. This helmet combines the latest technology, engineering and design available today and is an excellent investment for your comfort and protection. Although wearing a helmet has been proven
to significantly reduce the risk of injury or harm, please remember that no helmet can protect you from all possible or potential impacts, even if it is made with state-of-the-art materials and technology. The following information will assist you in the enjoyment and proper maintenance of your helmet.
Sustainability
At MT HELMETS, we are committed to creating helmets that are as environmentally friendly as possible. For this reason, helmet parts can be easily replaced, thus extending their life.
Purpose
The main function of a helmet is to protect your head from impact in the event of an accident. To achieve this, the helmet encapsulates your head with materials designed to absorb and mitigate the force of impact. Additionally, it is engineered to offer comfort while riding at a given speed and in a variety of weather conditions. However, there is a downside to every helmet: it decreases your hearing sensitivity, peripheral vision and mobility to some extent, while providing protection and comfort.
Fit
For maximum safety, it is vital that your MT HELMETS helmet fits properly on your head, with the retention strap correctly and securely fastened. Keep your chin firmly in place, grasp the back of the helmet with both hands and try to roll the helmet forward. If you
can move the helmet towards your eyes, the size is not correct, so try a smaller one.

Shield/Visor
MT helmet shields provide protection against the weather, small flying objects and wind.
Tinted visors are available to protect your eyes from excessive sunlight. Additionally, the helmet’s internal sun visor allows for an immediate adjustment of light intensity.
Caution! Never use a smoked or darkened shield/visor in low-visibility riding. Not only is it unsafe, it is also illegal in many countries.
Never use a shield/visor that is scratched or wet with condensation. MT Helmets shields are supplied with an anti-scratch treatment.

Ventilation System
Ventilation systems are designed and engineered to maximize your comfort in a wide range of temperatures. Explore the air vents on your helmet. Some vents have multiple positions, allowing partial opening and partial closing, thus controlling airflow in and out.
Helmet ventilation systems should be kept in good condition, and free of dirt, insects or other items that may interfere with proper airflow. Good airflow plays an important role, especially during physical effort or in hot weather. Optimum ventilation also helps reduce the possibility of fogging up the visor.
Caution! The aeroacoustic values may vary depending on the type of motorcycle, clothing, position and size of the body.

Retention System
Once the chinstrap is opened, you need to take both sections of the strap and keep them slightly separated in order to facilitate the passage of your head. When performing this movement, it is recommended to keep the two sections of the strap away from your thumbs so that they are properly positioned.
Position the parts that make up the retention system and secure them according to the appropriate recommendations for each the helmet. Check that the tension, and therefore the positioning of the helmet, is correct.
How to take off your helmet
Release the retention chinstrap, hold the two sections slightly apart as explained in the previous paragraph and remove the helmet.

Maintenance & Warranty

Maintenance
No component of your helmet can be damaged by water. Wash it with a mild detergent in lukewarm water and let it air dry. It is recommended to wash by hand. Do not place liner parts in the dryer: excess heat can damage the foam and liners. The shield can be
cleaned with mild soap and water. The shell of your helmet should be cleaned with water.
Warnings
Do not ride without first carefully fastening your helmet. Do not clean your helmet with petroleum products, solvents, benzene, thinners or abrasive cleaning products. Do not paint your helmet, otherwise your warranty will be invalidated. Do not drop your helmet from any height onto a hard surface. This may cause damage to the finish of your helmet and/or diminish its protective qualities. Do not place your helmet on the mirror of your motorcycle: the strong pressure from the edge of the mirror compresses and damages the shock absorbing liner of the helmet. Do not place your helmet on the motorcycle seat or fuel tank. It could easily roll off and hit the ground causing irreparable damage. It is best to place the helmet on a flat surface or, failing that, on the ground so that it cannot roll or fall. Do not use your helmet if the shield is scratched. This can affect your vision, especially when riding at night. Do not modify any part of your helmet, drill holes in the shell, or cut or press on the shock absorbing liner. The installation of sound systems, loudspeakers and microphones reduces the ability of your helmet to protect you and is therefore not recommended. Do not reuse your helmet if it has been dropped or involved in an accident. Replace it even if the damage is not visible to the naked eye. Do not wear dark or tinted shields/visors in dark or poor visibility riding conditions. Do not place interiors or pads in the dryer after washing. Allow to air dry. Do not attempt to remove, change or replace the shield while riding your motorcycle. Fluorescent and/or glossy finishes fade over time and with exposure to sunlight. This is normal and is not covered by the warranty.
