ALWAYS WEAR EEYEWEAR WHILE RIDING
All Troy Lee Designs helmets are designed for use with eye protection. If eye protection is not provided
with the helmet, it is your responsibility to obtain eye protection and use it. Tinted face shields, goggles,
or other forms of eye protection should not be used at night or under other conditions of poor visibility.
Lenses damaged by scratches (or dirty lenses) will reduce visibility, especially at night or in low light or
bright conditions and should be replaced. Petroleum products and other solvents may impair the optical
properties and reduce the mechanical strength of shields and goggles.
HELMET CARE
- Helmets are energy absorbing devices intended to deform, fracture, crush, and collapse as they absorb
energy generated by an impact. The D4 helmet should be treated/handled carefully so that it will have all
the available energy absorbing materials if you should ever need them. Your helmet will give you years of
good service if properly cared for.
- Use only mild soap and water to clean the outside or inside of your helmet and the pads. Chemicals used
in many cleaners can be harmful to your helmet. Frequently, this damage is not visible, and can result in
premature fracturing of the shell when impacted.
- Use only mild soap and water to clean the interior of your helmet. All of our models have removable liners.
These liners can be washed by hand in a bucket with mild soap and water, rinsed, then air dried only. Remove
odors by rinsing with a solution of bicarbonate of soda and water. Never use an oven or other heating
source to dry the helmet. Temperatures in excess of 130F degrees can damage the energy absorbing inner
liner. Never allow your helmet to come in contact with gasoline or other petroleum products, as this will
cause serious damage to the energy absorbing liner and/or the outer shell of the helmet.
- Troy Lee Designs helmets should not be painted by anyone other than Troy Lee Designs. Many helmet
components can be seriously damaged by chemicals and/or solvents contained in most paint or by
careless handling during the repair process. Do not sand or use any abrasive material on the helmet.
