About Your Helmet
A helmet can provide important protection if tted and worn correctly.
Important safety information:
A helmet must be correctly worn and maintained to provide
protection. Carefully read and follow these instructions. Incorrect use
or maintenance of your helmet could lead to serious injury or death.
Ride safely. No helmet can protect the wearer against all possible impacts.A
severe impact, sharp object, improper use, or incorrect adjustment could cause
conditions beyond the protection of the helmet.
Check the adjustment before every ride. To be effective, a helmet must
t and be worn correctly. The helmet is designed to be retained by a strap
under the lower jaw. To check for correct t, place helmet on head and make
any adjustments indicated. Securely fasten retention system. Grasp the helmet
and try to rotate it to the front and rear. A correctly tted helmet should be
comfortable and should not move forward to obscure vision or rearward to
expose the forehead. If you cannot correctly adjust your helmet, consult your
dealer.
Avoid high heat. Do not expose your helmet to heat, such as inside a car on a
sunny day. Excessive heat can damage the liner or shell, or make them separate.
Avoid chemicals. The helmet may be damaged and rendered ineffective by
petroleum and petroleum products, cleaning agents, paints, adhesives and the
like, without the damage being visible to the user. Also, some insect repellants
can damage the helmet.
Replace an old helmet or helmet with damage. The helmet is designed
to absorb shock by partial destruction of the shell and liner. This damage may
not be visible. Therefore, if subjected to a severe blow, the helmet should
be destroyed and replaced even if it appears undamaged. The helmet has a
limited lifespan in use and should be replaced when it shows obvious signs of
wear. Helmet parts lose strength over time, so even if the helmet has not been
impacted or damaged, replace it after three years.
WARNING
Helmets vary in both design and protection. This helmet is designed
for use in recreational bicycle riding; it does not offer the same protection as a
helmet designed for use in rock climbing, roller-skating, or skiing. Make sure your
helmet is designed and intended for your type of bicycle riding. If you choose
to do stunts or tricks, ride off-road, or ride at high speeds, you should choose a
helmet with more protection.
Anything between your head and the helmet can reduce the protection.
A cap, scarf, or even some high-volume hairstyles might allow the helmet to move
during an impact. Barrettes, headphones, or anything else under your helmet can
injure you if the helmet is impacted.
Do not modify the helmet. No attachments should be made to the helmet
except those recommended by the helmet manufacturer. This includes stickers
or adhesive labels.
Avoid choking. This helmet should not be used by children while climbing or
doing other activities where there is a risk of hanging or strangulation if the child
gets trapped whilst wearing the helmet.
Keep your helmet clean. Wash it with a solution of mild soap and water. The t
pads are machine washable in cold temperature, gentle cycle. Do not put t pad
sets in the dryer. You can also buy new t pads from your dealer.
Ventilation holes may allow penetration. Sticks, stones, or insects can pass
through the holes to the interior of the helmet.
Replacement Policy
If your helmet is impacted within the rst year of ownership, Electra will replace it at
no charge. Ship the helmet, postage prepaid, to Electra customer service with a copy
of your receipt and a description of the accident. We will send you a new helmet upon
receipt of your crashed helmet.

Adjusting the Helmet
Electra offers several shell sizes to t different head sizes. To check the shell size of your
helmet, put it on your head in the correct position (see Figure 1 and Figure 2), but do not
fasten the buckle. A good t is snug, but not tight.
Note: All directions (left, right,top,bottom) are in reference to the helmet as worn on the head.
To Adjust the Left Temple Strap
1. Place the helmet on your head.
2. Unlock the strap adjustor (Figure 3).
3. Slide the strap adjustor on the left temple strap (Figure 4) until the strap adjustor
sits just beneath your left earlobe.
4. Lock the strap adjustor.

To Adjust the Chinstrap
The helmet is designed to be retained by a strap under the lower jaw. The two straps
hanging from the right strap adjustor that go under the lower jaw are collectively
called the chinstrap (Figure 8). Make sure the chinstrap is correctly threaded through
the right buckle (Figure 9).
1. Adjust the length of the chinstrap by sliding it through the buckle.
2. Connect the right-hand buckle to the left-hand buckle (Figure 10).
3. Make sure the buckle is correctly fastened:
+ Attempt to pull the buckle apart with the chinstrap; it should not come apart.
The chinstrap should be located as shown in Figure 8 and should t snugly against
the bottom of your chin. If not, re-adjust.
4. To keep the chinstrap from apping, tuck it through the rubber O-ring (Figure 9).

Fit System
Your helmet will come equipped with t system (Figure 12). This t system
provides an additional method to hold the helmet rmly on your head.

To Adjust the Fit System
1. Put the helmet on your head, but do not connect the straps.
2. Position the t system so that it is below the occipital lobe, the bony
protrusion at the base of your skull.
3. If the t system is too loose, rotate the adjusting wheel clockwise to tighten
(Figure 13a). If the t system is too tight, rotate the adjusting wheel
counter-clockwise (Figure 13b).
4. Connect the chinstrap.
5. Test the adjustments (see next page).
If your preferred helmet position is at the end of the available adjustment,
the t system can be positioned to provide additional t options
(see next section).

To Test the Adjustments
Perform each of these two tests:
+ Shake your head side-to-side.The helmet should not move on your head.
+ Attempt to push the helmet forward and backward on your head. If the helmet
moves back, tighten the temple straps. If the helmet moves forward, tighten
the nape straps.
If the helmet cannot be adjusted correctly, you may need a smaller shell size;
consult your dealer.
Cutting Excess Chinstrap
If you choose to cut the chinstrap, leave at least 1 inch (25mm) above the
buckle. A chinstrap that is too short may lead to the helmet losing its adjustment
and protection. After cutting, melt the end of the chinstrap to prevent fraying.
Be careful with high heat near the helmet. The strap is ammable. Until it cools,
avoid contact with the melted nylon because it can burn.
