To maintain the integrity and appearance of your helmet:

• Clean the outer shell with a soft cloth, mild soap, and lukewarm water. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• The internal padding can typically be removed and hand-washed with mild soap and water, then air-dried. Refer to specific care labels if present.
• Clean straps with a damp 布と中性洗剤。

5.2 ストレージ

Store your helmet in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Avoid storing it near heat sources or in enclosed spaces like car trunks on hot days, as this can damage the helmet's materials.

5.3 検査

Before each ride, quickly inspect your helmet for any visible damage. Pay attention to the shell, straps, buckle, and retention system. If any damage is found, replace the helmet immediately.
