Remember to use the provided rubber plugs to cover the empty screw holes when the visor is removed to prevent water entry.

7.1 Cleaning the Shield

The shield can be easily popped off for cleaning. For the anti-fog interior, use only gentle soap and water. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the coating. For the exterior, use a soft cloth and mild soap and water. Rinse thoroughly and air dry.
