• I. INTRODUCTION
Please carefully read all instructions regarding the application, use, storage, care, cleaning, and
safety of your helmet. This helmet is based upon the latest technologies in order to guarantee
maximum protection. These instructions are an important part of the product and must be kept
for future reference. Intensive tests guarantee that SCOTT helmets comply with the diverse reg-
ulations of international safety standards in the areas of shock absorption, breakage, and shell
damage. You will find the corresponding safety labels and notes in the interior of your helmet.
• II. WARNING – SAFETY
WARNING !
This helmet, and bike helmets in general, are constructed in such a way that the helmet shell
is partly destroyed upon impact in order to absorb impact energy and to protect your head.
Therefore the helmet has to be replaced and destroyed after it has sustained a significant blow,
even if no damage is noticeable. Please also keep in mind that the material of the helmet can
be penetrated by sharp objects.
WARNING !
No helmet can protect the user from all injuries in all accidents, in particular in collisions with
motor vehicles. Depending on the strength of impact, even an accident at very low speeds can
cause significant injuries or death.
This helmet was developed to protect your head. It does not offer protection from injuries to
the neck, the spinal column, or other body parts capable of being affected by an accident.
WARNING !
Do not modify or remove any of the original parts of your helmet in any way contrary to the
recommendations by SCOTT. Any liability claims shall be precluded in the event of incorrect
use. Some SCOTT helmets are equipped with a detachable visor system. These systems ensure
that the visor immediately disengages in the case of a fall or other impact events. The attach-
ment of these visors does not damage the material of your helmet in any way.
WARNING !
The helmet should not be worn by children while they are climbing or engaging in other similar
activities, as the risk exists whereby the helmet straps could choke the child.
WARNING !
This product has a limited lifespan and for optimum safety SCOTT recommends replacing your
product three (3) years after purchasing date. SCOTT shall not be liable for damages arising
from the use of a helmet which should have been replaced.
WARNING !
This product is not a toy. It is sports equipment and is designed and intended for sports.
