during the day. For this reason, when riding during the day under particular brightness
weather conditions, e.g. very strong sunlight, the use of sunglasses - determining a
transmittance much lower than 50% - turns out to be advisable, if not compulsory, to
reduce eye tiredness in case of long trips. In the same way, sunglasses are necessary
to reduce the risk of direct dazzling as opposed to the use of mere approved visors. The
use of sunglasses makes it difficult, however, to perform possible emergency operations
when the maximum visibility range of the visor has to be quickly restored. Just think, for
example, of what happens when you enter a tunnel or when unexpected changes in
environmental brightness occur. Thanks to its operating mechanism, the VPS makes
these operations much easier.
WARNING
-
The VPS can be activated only during the day and in the environmental conditions
described above.
-
At night and/or in scarce visibility conditions, the VPS MUST be deactivated.
-
Always check that the VPS is properly positioned according to different weather/envi-
ronmental conditions and/or the above-mentioned recommendations for use.
-
We recommend using the VPS only and solely together with the approved standard
visor, which has a transmittance value greater than 80%.
-
Since the VPS does not assure you the same protection as the one provided by the
visor, it has to be used only when the helmet visor is pulled down.
-
Always make sure that the VPS is clean and that it is operating properly in order to
avoid scratches and/or anomalous wear on it every time it is activated.
-
As for VPS and visor maintenance and cleaning operations, please refer to the appro-
priate section in the helmet user's manual.
VPS DISASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
To remove the VPS system from the helmet, open the chin guard and lower the VPS by
pushing the side slider forwards (Fig. 10B).
Hold the central part of the VPS, press it slightly towards the inner part of the helmet and
simultaneously pull the VPS downwards until its upper grip pawl has been removed from
the shell (Fig. 11).
Hold the VPS right side and pull the VPS towards the outside of the helmet by pressing
the grip pawl in the shell housing (Fig. 12A).
Repeat the same operation on the left side of the helmet (Fig. 12B).
VPS ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
To assemble the VPS system, open the helmet chin guard and make sure the side slider
is in forward position (Fig. 10B).
Insert the VPS left end into the left side guide until the grip pawl is hooked in shell hous-
ing (Fig. 12B).
Repeat the same steps on the right side (Fig. 12A).
Press the VPS slightly inwards near its upper grip pawl. At the same time press the VPS
in the seat obtained between the outer and inner shells (Fig. 11).
