So that it covers the forehead as shown in the image in Figure 3.
ii. Adjust the knob
- Once you have positioned the helmet. tighten or loosen the knob at the back to adjust the circumference to your head as needed.
- To be worn correctly, the helmet should not move forward, backward or sideways. The helmet should be comfortable, not alter the field of vision, nor uncover the back of the head, which should remain protected.
- IMPORTANT : These adjustment steps must be performed on a helmet that is correctly positioned on the head. The helmet only protects if it is properly positioned and adjusted. It is the user’s responsibility to ensure that the steps advised in this manual are followed.
iii. Adjust the straps
- When putting the helmet on, adjust the straps so that they are tight. do not cover the ears, fit and meet comfortably under the ears as shown in Figure 4.
- The straps and buckle should be adjusted so that they tighten firmly without getting in the way.
- To fasten the helmet, slide the two parts of the buckle together as shown in Figure 5.
- Make sure the buckle (which should be closed before each use) does not rest on the jaw.
- To remove the helmet, press the sides together.
b. How to use and maintain your helmet
- Every protective equipment has its limitations. It is the responsibility of the user to carefully read and follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer. Do not take reckless and unnecessary risks just because you are wearing a helmet.
- Always put on your helmet properly, make sure it fits properly, always close your buckle properly fitted and tighten your strap.
- Do not use another person’s helmet.
- Do not wear hard or sharp items under your helmet.
- Never modify or remove any part of the helmet component other than as recommended by the manufacturer, as this may cause hazards and reduce its protective effect. Always use spare parts supplied by the manufacturer. Never attach or glue anything to your helmet except the accessories recommended by Cosmo Connected and according to the mounting procedures provided by Cosmo Connected.
- Many cleaning products can damage your helmet and reduce its protective capabilities. This helmet can be seriously damaged by substances such as hydrocarbons, solvents, glues or adhesives and paints. Clean the helmet with neutral soap and water only after carefully removing the Cosmo Ride. Let it air dry. Never clean with solvents or chemical detergents (thinner, acetone, trichloroethylene., etc.) as they may alter the characteristics and the quality of the helmet. In general, please avoid corrosive or aggressive substances.
- The Cosmo Evasion helmet is equipped with removable and washable comfort foams. These should be washed by hand and dried before being put back into the helmet.
- Never use a damaged helmet: regularly examine your helmet to ensure its condition. This helmet is designed to absorb impact by partially altering its structure by absorbing energy. This damage may not be necessarily visible to the user. After a major impact or a fall, this helmet should be destroyed and replaced even if it does not appear to be damaged. A helmet should also be replaced after 4 to 5 years of careful use depending on its frequency of use, or if it no longer fits. Cosmo Connected will not accept any complaint due to a defect or deterioration arising from misuse, neglect. repair or alteration other than as advised by the manufacturer.
- The helmet cannot protect against all types of injuries and certainly not in the areas it does not cover. This helmet is designed to protect the head, but not the spine or any other part of the body. Even at low speed an accident can cause serious injury or even death.
- Storage: Temperatures above 45°C can damage your helmet, so it is best to store it in a cool, dry place. Do not leave your helmet in a car or near any source of heat. If your helmet is damaged due to exposure to high temperatures, it will no longer be warranted by the manufacturer.
- This helmet should not be used by children while climbing or doing other activities where there is a risk of strangulation if the child gets trapped whilst wearing the helmet.
- Safely keep this user manual.

- Users must comply with local regulations, which may prohibit the use of certain light modes or mounting positions. Cosmo Connected declines any responsibi- lity.
- The use of hand signals remains encouraged on the road. Although offering an automatic brake light and turn signals to make them as recognizable and intuitive as possible, we make no claim that motorists or the people around you will recognize their meaning or that they will see them. It is a good practice to have lights to improve visibility for users, but it does not guarantee that there will not be an accident or collision.
- When you activate the turn signal, take a look at the remote control to make sure you have activated the correct light. It can be very dangerous to turn on the wrong turn signal light or to leave it on, which can increase the risk of a collision due to miscommunication. After you have actually turned, make sure you turn off your turn signal light.
