Giro Escape MIPS Helmet User Manual

1. Giriş

Thank you for choosing the Giro Escape MIPS helmet. This manual provides essential information for the proper setup, operation, maintenance, and care of your helmet. Please read these instructions carefully before using your helmet to ensure maximum safety and performance. Proper fit and care are crucial for the helmet's protective capabilities.

2. Güvenlik Bilgileri

Your Giro Escape MIPS helmet is designed to reduce the risk of head injury in certain impacts. However, no helmet can protect against all possible impacts. Always ride cautiously and wear appropriate safety gear.

2.1 MIPS Technology

This helmet incorporates the Multi-Directional Impact Protection System (MIPS). MIPS is a low-friction layer designed to reduce rotational forces that can result from certain impacts. This system allows the helmet to slide relative to the head, redirecting energy and forces that might otherwise be transmitted to the brain.

2.2 Önemli Güvenlik Uyarısı

• Always wear your helmet correctly fitted and securely fastened.
• Inspect your helmet for damage before each ride. Do not use a damaged helmet.
• Never modify your helmet or use accessories not approved by Giro.
• A helmet involved in an impact should be replaced immediately, even if visible damage is not apparent.
• Avoid exposing your helmet to extreme heat, such as leaving it in a hot car, as this can damage the EPS liner.

3. Kurulum ve Montaj

Achieving a proper fit is essential for the helmet's effectiveness.

3.1 İlk Uygunluk Ayarı

1. Konumlandırma: Place the helmet squarely on your head so that it covers your forehead. It should sit level, not tilted back or forward.
2. Roc Loc Sport MIPS Fit System: The Escape MIPS helmet features the Roc Loc Sport MIPS Fit System for easy adjustment. Locate the dial at the rear of the helmet. Turn the dial clockwise to tighten the fit system, and counter-clockwise to loosen it. Adjust until the helmet feels snug and secure without being uncomfortably tight. The helmet should not move excessively when you shake your head.
