4.1 Inspection initiale
Before first use, inspect your helmet for any signs of damage from shipping. Ensure all components, including the internal shield and chin strap, operate smoothly.
4.2 Ajustement du casque

- Loop the long end back through the first D-ring only.
- Pull the strap tight against your throat. Ensure there is no slack.
- Secure the loose end of the strap with the snap button to prevent flapping.
4.4 Attaching/Removing the Detachable Mask
The i20 features an easily detachable mask. To attach, align the mask's tabs with the corresponding slots on the helmet and slide it into place until it clicks securely. To remove, use the convenient PUSH and SLIDE mechanism to disengage the tabs and pull the mask away from the helmet.
