Precautions on inadvertent
damage to helmets
Do not carry helmet on the motorcycle’s helmet lock
while riding to avoid exhaust pipe burns, tire abrasion,
and strap damage.
Use soft cloth with detergent and lukewarm water solution
to clean both the inside and outside of your helmet.
Never use petrol, thinner, benzene or any other solvents
as these can adversely affect the shock absorbing liner
plastic components.
Never use petrol, thinner, benzene or any other solvents
for cleaning the shields/visors.
Use only detergent and
lukewarm water
to avoid damage to the shields/visors
and other plastic components (see also “visor (face
shield) maintenance instructions”).
If painting your helmet, be sure to protect the entire inside
of the helmet from the paint spray by masking all openings
with paper and tape as paint can adversely effect the
shock absorbing liner and plastic components. Use only
air-drying paint, not paints that require heat curing.
Under any circumstance:
• Do not remove any trim rubber
• Do not remove the inner shell
• Do not remove the chinstrap
Although your helmet is solidly built, like any fine piece
of equipment, it should be handled with care. Dropping
onto solid surfaces and other rough handling may
damage the painted surface and/or decrease its ability
to protect.
It is extremely dangerous to modify your helmet as it
may decrease the ability to protect. For safety’s sake, do
not drill any holes in the shell or press or cut the shock
absorbing liner. Use only ARAI’s genuine parts when you
replace parts of your helmet.
