1.7 Pre-Ride Helmet Inspection

1.7.1 Checking the Exterior

Check the helmet regularly for damage. Small, superﬁcial scratches will

not impair the helmet’s protective qualities. In the case of more serious

damage (cracks, dents, ﬂaking and cracking paint, etc.), the helmet

should no longer be used.

1.7. 2 Checking the Chinstrap

1. Ensure that the chinstrap is properly routed under your chin.

2. To test the chinstrap tension, slip your index ﬁnger under the

chinstrap and pull. If the chinstrap is loose under the chin, it needs to

be tightened. If the chinstrap loosens when you pull on it, the helmet

is not properly ﬁtted. Undo the chinstrap completely and try fastening

it again, then repeat the test.

3. If you are unable to fasten the chinstrap so that it ﬁts ﬁrmly against

the chin, check that your helmet is still the right size for you.

Note: Repeat the test after each adjustment.

Caution: Never ride with the chinstrap unfastened or incorrectly

adjusted. The chinstrap should ﬁt correctly and should not become

loose when pulled. The fastener is not correctly closed if the chinstrap

becomes loose when pulled.

1.7. 3 Checking the Face Shield

Before every ride, clean the face shield, check that it functions properly

and that its surface is scratch- and crack-free. A malfunctioning, badly

scratched or dirty shield will considerably impair your vision and should

be replaced before riding.

Caution:

• A heavily scratched face shield considerably interferes with visibility

and should be replaced if necessary before riding.

• Stop riding if visibility is poor.
