Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your helmet remains in peak condition, always store it in the included padded bag when not in use to prevent surface scratches. For the liner, detach it carefully from the interior velcro or snap mounts and hand wash with mild soap; ensure it is completely air-dried before reinserting to prevent mold or odors. Regularly inspect the harness straps for any signs of fraying. For a proper fit, ensure the helmet sits level on the head, about an inch above the eyebrows, with no significant movement when shaking the head.
