C. THE HELMET
COATING
The visor shield features anti-fog and anti-scratch coatings. The
anti-scratch coating on the outside increases the surface hardness
of the visor and its resistance to scratches. This has a signifi cant
positive effect on the useful life and quality of view offered by your
visor.
A specially developed, high-performance anti-fog coating
has been applied to the interior that substantially reduces
condensation mist on the shield.
Note: Avoid hard rubbing or scrubbing either side of the
shield when cleaning, and do not immerse the visor in water
(see visor maintenance notes, section H.2).
Note: The active anti-fog and anti-scratch coatings are
prone to ageing, the rate of which depends on the intensity
of use and on environmental conditions. For your own safety
we recommend that you replace the visor when its anti-fog
properties begin to deteriorate.
Tip: After thorough cleaning, riding in rain or a long ride in
cold conditions, the anti-fog coating will require a certain
amount of time to become fully effective again. During this
time the coating may not absorb, or only partially absorb, the
moisture produced by breathing. Placing the helmet in an
airy, dry place will accelerate the reactivation of the coating.

Opening the visor
To open the visor, grip the fi nger tab below
the visor on the left-hand side using the
thumbs and push the visor shield upwards
to the desired position.
Closing the visor
Grip the fi nger tab and push the visor
shield downwards with a movement of the
hand.
Locking the visor
To lock the visor when fully closed, move
the operating element towards the rear
with a movement of the hand. To release
the visor again, move the operating
element back to its original position.
Urban mode
To ensure suffi cient fresh air in the helmet
when moving slowly (e.g. city riding), you
can set the visor to the 'urban mode' by
means of the locking operating element. To
set urban mode, start with the visor open
and move the operating element towards
the rear with a movement of the hand.
The catch pins of the visor engage on the
operating element, creating a small gap
between the visor and visor seal.
