X-lite X-1003 Sécurité Et Instructions D'utilisation page 14

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
The X-1003 helmet can be used in two configurations (chin guard closed - P / chin guard
open - J). The use of the helmet in configuration P (with chin guard and visor closed) obviou-
sly offers the highest degree of protection in comparison to configuration J (with chin guard
and visor open).
• CHIN GUARD OPENING SYSTEM
The X-1003 is equipped with the unique "Dual Action" chin guard opening system.
Positioned in the centre of the chin guard, it allows for easy, one-handed opening and pre-
vents it from accidentally opening because the chin guard can be opened by operating the
second release lever only when the first lever has already been released.
N.B.: For an easier fitment of the helmet we may suggest you to keep the chinguard
opened and the vps in the up position during the operation.
1 OPENING
1.1. Push the red release lever outwards by turning it with your thumb (Fig. 1).
1.2 Place your forefinger on top of the opening lever and push it downwards so as to unlock
the chin guard (Fig. 2).
1.3 Pull the flip-up chin guard forwards, accompanying it as it rotates upwards with an ellip-
tical movement (Fig. 3).
WARNING: If the helmet is used in configuration J (with chin guard open), it is recom-
mended to place the left side locking slider in position "J" (see instructions for P/J con-
figuration - Fig. 5, slider upwards) to secure the chin guard in lifted position.
2 CLOSING
WARNING: In order to be able to close the chin guard, make sure the side locking
slider is in position "P", as shown in fig. 4 (slider downwards).
2.1 Pull the chin guard downwards, accompanying it as it rotates, until you hear the clicks
of the closing mechanism.
2.2 Make sure that the chin guard is properly fastened.
• P/J CONFIGURATION
Fig. 4 (slider forward)
When the side locking slider is in position "P" (Fig. 4, slider downwards) the chin guard can
be opened and/or closed.
Fig. 5 (slider upwards)
When the side locking slider is in position "J" (Fig. 5, slider upwards), the chin guard cannot
be closed, remaining locked in open position.
WARNING! In this configuration, the chin guard cannot be closed again.
Do not force the closing of the chin guard because it could cause damages in the hel-
met's closing mechanism. To close the chin guard, it is necessary to move the locking
slider to position P (Fig. 4, slider downwards).
WARNING!!!
- The protection level of this helmet whilst riding depends upon the configuration adop-
ted by the user: total protection if the chin guard and visor are closed, partial protection
if the chin guard and/or visor are open.
- Do not remove nor tamper with the fixing screws that connect the chin guard to the
shell.
