5. Istruzioni per l'uso
The N-Com ESS system operates automatically. Once correctly installed and powered, it continuously monitors the helmet's deceleration. When a significant deceleration event (indicating emergency braking) is detected, the integrated LED light activates, providing a clear visual warning to following vehicles.
5.1. Regolazione della sensibilità
The sensitivity of the deceleration sensor may be adjustable to suit individual riding styles and preferences. Refer to the detailed N-Com system manual or the specific ESS instructions for your model to learn how to adjust the sensitivity. Proper adjustment ensures the light activates reliably during actual emergency braking without triggering unnecessarily during normal riding.
6. Manutenzione
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your N-Com ESS unit.
- Pulizia: Clean the exterior of the ESS unit with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, which can damage the housing or LED lens.
- Verifica della connessione: Periodically inspect the electrical connections to ensure they are secure and free from corrosion.
- Prova di funzionalità: Before each ride, perform a quick check to ensure the LED light activates when the helmet is subjected to a sudden forward tilt (simulating braking).
- Magazzinaggio: When not in use for extended periods, store the helmet and ESS unit in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight.
