CLEANING THE INTERIOR
All interior fabric materials are washable; to avoid
their deterioration, it is necessary to strictly adhere
to the following guidelines:
The cheek pads and peak must be hand-washed
in warm soapy water (at approx. 30°C). Avoid
using harsh detergents, but rather a small dose
of detergent specifically designated for delicate
fabrics or else a very mild soap.
Prior to helmet use, it is essential to ensure that
the fabrics and foams have completely dried. This
drying step must be carried out at room tem-
perature. Never iron any of the fabric materials.
For parts with a leather finish or fabrics bonded
to safety components, use a sponge or slightly
dampened cloth with just a bit of mild soap and
then rinse in clean water.
Avoid using too much water on components made
of polystyrene.
You must fully ensure that all interior parts are
perfectly dry before using the helmet.
WARNING! Damaging the internal foam
will alter your actual helmet size. If no
longer adjusted to fit your head, the helmet may
come off, thus leaving your head exposed without
protection and potentially causing serious, or even
fatal, injuries.

THE TEXTILE PARTS
The Spartan GT Carbon - Spartan GT comfort
fabrics and foams will help you better appre-
ciate your helmet's performance. The parts in
contact with your skin are made with a fabric
guaranteed to be pleasant to the touch, in
addition to offering a high level of perspiration
absorption and good resistance to ageing. By
relying on our surface treatment, we have
successfully limited the risks of mould and
bacteria build-up.
WARNING! Despite being rigorously selec-
ted for their strength and durability over
time, all parts of the interior lining are subjected
to normal wear, depending on: the level of care
and maintenance, the time in use, and the acidity
properties of your perspiration. Should you observe
wear-induced ageing, we advise replacing the
interior fabric and foam in order to extend the
lifetime of a perfectly clean helmet capable of pro-
viding the requisite level of comfort. Your retailer
may be able to propose replacements and, as an
option, cheek pads of different thicknesses and
densities should the standard choices not match
the morphology of your face.
WARNING! Each time you put on your
helmet, check the fit as discussed in
"Choose your size".
