1.4 At the very least, the helmet shell and the interior harness must be
checked for possible damage, either before or after each operation. In
particular, the tight fit of all screws (especially those on the locking straps) is
to be examined. In the case of unusual damage (loads) on the helmet shell,
the interior harness, the chinstrap or other parts, these must be exchanged
in order to guarantee the defined protective function. Only original parts may
be employed for the maintenance of the HEROS-xtreme fire fighting helmet.
Subsequently applied paint on the helmet surface, or stickers not approved
by Rosenbauer, can alter the characteristics of the material and are either
forbidden, or subject to prior approval from Rosenbauer. No alterations may be
made to the helmet shell and the interior harness.
WARNING: Changes to the helmet shell or interior harness can
have a negative effect on helmet function and thus cause serious
injury. Therefore, they are forbidden.
1.5 The responsibility and liability for the aforementioned items 1.1-1.5 lie
exclusively with the users of HEROS-xtreme helmets.
WARNING: In the case of non-adherence to these stipulations,
Rosenbauer cannot give any guarantees concerning the perfect function
of the HEROS-xtreme fire fighting helmet! Rosenbauer's conditions of
liability and warranty are not extended due to this information.
1.6 The HEROS-xtreme fire fighting helmet was developed in accordance with
the relevant standards, but does not come with a guarantee that injury can be
excluded.
WARNING: In the case of exceptional loads, the helmet absorbs
energy, which can lead to damage and subsequently to negative effects
on the protective function. Such damage may not be immediately
evident and therefore, every helmet that has been subjected to such
heavy loads should be taken out of operation immediately!
WARNING: Should another item of personal protection equipment or an
accessory (except for those accessories provided by the manufacturer
for use with this helmet) be mounted onto a helmet designated as being
in accordance with EN 443, this may possibly cease to fulfil every
section of the standard.
