FAQs
Does this helmet meet safety standards?
Yes, the Oxford Zuno Helmet conforms to the CE EN1078 safety standard.
How do I know if the helmet is too small?
If the dial-fit system is at its maximum extension and the helmet still feels tight or sits too high on the forehead, it is time to move up to a larger size.
Can I use this for other sports?
This helmet is designed specifically for cycling and scootering as per CE EN1078 standards; it is not recommended for high-impact contact sports.
How often should I replace the helmet?
It is recommended to replace the helmet if it has been involved in any significant impact, even if no damage is visible, or every 3-5 years due to natural material degradation.
Is the padding removable for washing?
Most models feature light padding that can be hand-washed with mild soap and air-dried.
Troubleshooting
The helmet wobbles on the child's head.
Ensure the rear dial is tightened correctly and check that the side straps are evenly adjusted.
The chin strap keeps loosening.
Verify that the strap is correctly threaded through the buckle and check for any debris caught in the mechanism.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the helmet, place it on the child's head so it rests level across the forehead, about two fingers above the eyebrows. Turn the rear dial clockwise until the fit is snug but comfortable. Adjust the side straps so they form a 'V' shape just below the ears, and ensure the chin strap is tight enough that no more than one finger can fit between the strap and the chin.
For care, clean the shell using only mild soap and water. Avoid harsh solvents, chemicals, or cleaning sprays, as these can degrade the integrity of the polycarbonate material. Always store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
