Storing Your Helmet Correctly
An improperly stored helmet san become damaged and may increase your risk of serious injury or death in
an accident. You should:
• Store helmet in a cool and dry place,
• Keep helmet away from pets and other animals,
• Keep helmet away from heat in excess of 50°C and do not set on or near hot surfaces.
• When helmets left out in the sun for extended periods of time, it may fade overtime.
Helmet Replacement
Although your HJC helmet is constructed with the best materials available to offer a long-lasting product, it
will eventually need to be replaced. Immediately replace your helmet if:
• It has suffered an impact. Your helmet is only designed for ONE impact. An impact may fracture the outer
shell or compress the impact absorbing liner. You may not be able to detect this damage. Any impact in
a crash or a drop from as low as 4 feet is enough to damage your helmet.
• The shell, lining, or retention system is damaged. The helmet shell, the impact absorbing lining, and the
retention system must be in good condition to provide you with the most protection.
Even if your helmet has not been damaged, it needs to be replaced every 3 to 5 years depending on how much you use it.
Over time, UV rays and adhesive and component aging will damage your helmet. Wearing a damaged helmet may increase
your risk of serious injury or death in an accident. If you are unsure if you need to replace your helmet, contact HJC Europe
before using your helmet again.
Helmet Disposal
If you buy a new helmet, destroy the old one to ensure it cannot be reused. Do not sell or give away your
old helmet, even if it has not been damaged. Over time the protective foam in the helmet will adjust to the
contours of your head. If someone else uses this helmet it will not provide them with as much protection.
