INTRODUCTION
In these instructions for use, we provide you with all the necessary information on
design, employment and care of the HEROS-titan fire fighting helmet. Despite strict
quality requirements during the development and production processes, as well as
stringent final checks prior to every delivery, in the final analysis, the HEROS-titan
helmets are only as good as the standard of their handling, maintenance and care. In
other words, the extent to which the HEROS-titan can fulfil its protective function and
the subsequent degree of user satisfaction are very much in the hands of the individual
fire-fighter.
1. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS AND FIRE FIGHTING HELMET
APPLICATIONS
1.1 The HEROS-titan fire fighting helmet may only be used for the purposes for which
it has been designed after careful study of the complete instructions. The helmet
is to be employed exclusively for operations according to fire fighting guidelines
and standard practice.
The helmet is neither suitable not certificated for use as a cycle helmet, motor
cycle helmet, as a seat, as an object for standing on, or similar activities.
Utilisation for such purposes is unacceptable and forbidden.
WARNING: Improper use of the helmet for purposes other than those permitted can
lead to serious injury!
1.2 The HEROS-titan fire fighting helmet must be handled, checked and maintained
in the manner described in this user information and the instructions for use. In
order to safeguard the HEROS-titan helmet against premature ageing, store it in a
place, which offers maximum protection against light and moisture.
1.3 All repair work, component exchange and servicing on the HEROS-titan fire
fighting helmet may only be undertaken according to the appropriate guidelines

specialists authorised by ROSENBAUER may carry out fundamental maintenance
and servicing work, not described in this user information.
1.4 At the very least, the helmet shell and the interior harness must be checked
for possible damage, either before or after each operation. In particular, the
tight fit of all screws is to be examined. In the case of unusual damage on the
helmet shell, the interior harness, the chinstrap or other parts, these must be
exchanged immediately in order to guarantee the defined protective function.
Only original parts may be employed for the maintenance of the HEROS-titan fire
