D. THE HELMET
1. STANDARD
The C3 conforms to the ECE-R 22.05 standard. This test standard
guarantees conformity to defi ned safety standards in respect of
impact absorption, penetration resistance, lateral rigidity, retention
system and fi eld of vision. The approval guarantees that you have
approval for all the countries of the European Union and all countries
which recognise the ECE standard. It also guarantees conformity for
insurance purposes in the event of a claim.
Please note that this C3 with ECE approval is specifi cally orientated
to the ECE standard and is therefore particularly not approved for the
USA or Canada. It is only legal to use it in countries where the ECE
standard is valid.
Note:
The only SCHUBERTH helmets legal for use in the USA or Canada
are those with appropriate approval and technical specifi catio.

4. OUTER SHELL
The outer shell of the C3 combines an aerodynamically optimal
shape that is suitable for racing with thorough protection. It consists
of a special glass fi bre reinforced, duroplastic matrix developed by
Schuberth, which gives the helmet the high level of strength needed
for your protection.
Caution:
The safety helmet is designed to absorb the effect of only one
impact. The helmet must be replaced after a fall, accident or any
other impact.
5. INNER SHELL
For optimised impact absorption properties, the inner shell of the
helmet consists of several components. Complex multi-segment
foam padding of the main body makes for better absorption
and distribution of impact forces and gives you a high degree of
protection. The large side sections ensure the helmet provides
optimum fi t and the greatest comfort.
