      Remove a non-heated shield from the helmet using the manufacturer's recommended procedure for your helmet model number. Replace the shield with a HJC electric shield model number suitable for your helmet type. Use a HJ-05 electric shield for helmet models AC-10, CL-12 and FG-12. Use a HJ-07 electric shield for helmet models AC-11 and CL-14. Use a HJ-09 electric shield for helmet models AC-12, CL-15, CL-SP CS-R1 and FS-10.

      Connect the battery cable's red cord to the positive terminal on a DC 12-volt battery. Connect the black cord of the battery cable on to the negative terminal on the battery. The battery cable is the length of wire that splits into separate red and black cords so that it is easy to recognize and connect up correctly.
