4 | Correct use
4.1 | Safety checks
It is essential that the following instructions be observed, as this is the
only way to ensure that the original protective capacity of the gloves is
maintained.
Never use solvents or other aggressive substances for cleaning.
Contact with unapproved substances or incorrect care of the gloves may
significantly affect their features and reduce the protection they provide.
The gloves must not be dyed, nor may adhesive labels be attached.
No modifications to the product, however small they may seem, are
permitted.
Excessive twisting and/or bending (e.g. wringing out the glove) also
constitute incorrect handling because the product was not developed to
withstand these kinds of forces.
Such incorrect treatment as mentioned above may result in reduced
protection. At worst, the gloves may become ineffective.
Detlev Louis Motorrad-Vertriebsgesellschaft mbH (Switzerland: Detlev
Louis AG) cannot accept any claims for compensation or for repair
resulting from incorrect treatment.
The gloves should be checked for holes, tears, etc., every time they are
worn. If you notice any damage to the gloves, you must replace them.
Also check that the knuckle protectors are undamaged and securely
attached to the gloves. Check that the hook-and-loop fasteners are clean
and function properly and securely.
As soon as your gloves or parts of the gloves start to show signs of
wear, it is time to replace them.
A fall and/or crash may damage important components of the gloves,
so they will no longer provide the limited protection described above.
Such damage may not be visible to the naked eye. You should therefore
always replace your gloves after a fall.
4.2 | Label
The gloves come with a production label for clear identification and
traceability.

4.3 | Durability
The durability of the gloves depends on the type and duration of use,
and the degree of care. As a general principle, this PPE must be replaced
eight years from the date of manufacture, even if it does not appear to
be damaged. Some forms of damage are not always recognisable by
simple visual inspection.
4.4 | Care
Only use a damp cloth to remove any dirt. After cleaning your gloves,
treat them with suitable leather care products. We recommend
refreshing the impregnation of the outer material from time to time,
depending on usage.

4.5 | Correct storage, transport and disposal
The gloves must be stored in a dry and well-ventilated place. Do not
expose them to sunlight or direct heat sources.
The gloves must be protected against impacts under all circumstances,
and you should not place heavy objects on them. Avoid storing your
gloves in such a way that their own weight is carried by a few individual
points. After use, let your gloves air-dry at room temperature. Never use
a hairdryer or similar device, or place the gloves directly on a radiator, as
this may cause damage.
When transporting the gloves, do not leave them in a closed vehicle for
an extended period of time, and do not expose them to very high or very
low temperatures. Make sure that no heavy objects are placed on top of
the gloves during transportation.
The gloves were made using selected materials which are classified as
being harmless to humans according to current knowledge.
Gloves that are no longer usable must be disposed of in accordance
with the applicable environmental regulations, unless otherwise
indicated.
