NEXX X.R2 Motorcycle Helmet Shield Instruction Manual

Introduction

This manual provides essential instructions for the proper installation, use, and maintenance of your NEXX X.R2 Motorcycle Helmet Shield. Adhering to these guidelines will ensure optimal performance and longevity of your product. This shield is designed specifically for NEXX X.R2 helmet models.

Setup and Installation

Proper installation of your helmet shield is crucial for safety and functionality. Follow these steps carefully:

1. Preparation: Ensure your helmet is clean and free of debris around the shield mechanism.
2. Removing the Old Shield (if applicable):
   • Open the shield to its fully raised position.
   • Locate the quick-release levers or buttons on both sides of the helmet's shield mechanism.
   • Press or slide the release mechanism while gently pulling the shield away from the helmet. Repeat for the other side.
   • Carefully detach the shield from the helmet pivots.
3. Installing the New Shield:
   • Align the pivot points of the new NEXX X.R2 shield with the corresponding slots on the helmet's shield mechanism.
   • Gently push the shield into place until you hear a click, indicating it is securely fastened. Ensure both sides are properly engaged.
   • Test the installation by opening and closing the shield several times. It should move smoothly and securely lock into its closed position.

Operating the Shield

The NEXX X.R2 helmet shield is designed for ease of use and optimal visibility.

• Opening and Closing: Use the tab located at the bottom center of the shield to smoothly raise or lower it. The shield features multiple detent positions for airflow control.
• Anti-Fog Position: For improved ventilation and to reduce fogging in certain conditions, the shield can be slightly opened to a 'cracked' position, allowing a small amount of air to enter.
• Tinted Shields: If you are using a tinted shield, be aware that visibility will be reduced in low-light conditions, at dusk, or at night. Always use a clear shield for night riding or poor visibility.

Maintenance and Care

Proper care extends the life and maintains the clarity of your helmet shield.

• Cleaning:
  • Use only mild soap and lukewarm water to clean the shield. Avoid harsh chemicals, ammonia-based cleaners, or abrasive materials, as these can damage the shield's surface and coatings.
  • Gently wipe the shield with a soft, clean microfiber cloth. Do not rub vigorously.
  • Rinse thoroughly with clean water and allow to air dry, or gently blot with a clean, dry microfiber cloth.
• Scratch Prevention: Avoid placing the helmet face down on rough surfaces. Store the helmet in a helmet bag when not in use to protect the shield from scratches.
• Inspection: Regularly inspect your shield for scratches, cracks, or other damage that could impair vision or compromise safety. Replace damaged shields immediately.

Troubleshooting

Here are solutions to common issues you might encounter:

• Shield Difficult to Attach: Ensure the shield's pivot points are correctly aligned with the helmet's mechanism. Apply gentle, even pressure until it clicks into place. Do not force it.
• Excessive Fogging: Ensure the helmet's ventilation system is open. Utilize the anti-fog 'cracked' position of the shield. Consider using an anti-fog insert or spray if fogging persists in cold or humid conditions.
• Shield Does Not Stay Up/Down: Check if the shield mechanism is clean and free of debris. If the detents feel loose, the mechanism may require adjustment or replacement by a qualified technician.
