INTRODUCTION

Congratulations and thank you for choosing the scala rider Q2

MultiSet pro

Bluetooth® Headset package.

This User Guide will help you operate the headset, but you should first familiarize yourself with the Bluetooth® functionality of your cellular phone and/or GPS device before using the scala rider Q2 pro

.

This retail box contains two scala rider Q2 pro

headsets that already factory paired (see details below). In wide open terrain two bikers can communicate via intercom (in full duplex*) at a range of up to 700 m /

2,300 ft, subject to terrain and external conditions.

The scala rider Q2 pro

is multi-talented and (in addition to its connection to the second Q2 pro

unit) it can also serve as a stand-alone unit for the following connectivity modes:

• As a Bluetooth headset for mobile phone communication

• As a Biker-to-Passenger Intercom device that connects with any scala rider Headset worn by the passenger

• As a speaker that transmits GPS Navigation instructions from a compatible GPS device**

• As a speaker that transmits audio from the embedded FM Radio

• As a speaker that transmits music from your MP3 player (via provided cable)

• As a Bluetooth stereo headset for wireless music streaming (supporting the Bluetooth A2DP and AVRCP profiles, compatible with a variety of MP3 Players, adapters and other audio devices)

NOTE: Each Q2 pro

headset can establish an audio connection with one Bluetooth device at a time. Read the section “Using the Headset” on how to switch the audio connection between the paired devices.

Pairing is a one time process that is required for mutual recognition between a headset and other Bluetooth devices. Once the two headsets are paired, they will remain paired and automatically recognize each other whenever they are within range. The two headsets in your retail box are already factory paired and relate to each other as the Primary

Buddy connection. In addition, each unit can be paired with an additional scala rider headset for Intercom communication. Please note that you can speak via Intercom to one Buddy headset at a time.

NOTE: This Manual refers to the Intercom users and other parties as:

Primary Buddy and Secondary Buddy.

PRIMARY BUDDY PAIRING (two scala rider Q2

GETTING STARTED

ATTACHING THE CLAMP ON THE HELMET

The Helmet Clamp must be attached to the left side of the helmet.

Once attached, the headset unit can be mounted or released from the Helmet Clamp at any time. If you wish to connect your MP3 player to your headset, please refer first to the assembly instructions listed in section: CONNECTING YOUR MP3 PLAYER TO YOUR HEADSET.

There are two methods that can be used in order to attach the Clamp onto the helmet:

Standard Method: Recommended for most helmet types.

Glue Plate Method: Recommended for helmets to which the standard method cannot be applied, using the Glue Plate included in the box.

Standard Method

1. Use the enclosed Allen Wrench to loosen the two screws on the Back Plate.

2. Slide the Back Plate between the internal padding and the external shell of the helmet.

3. Adjust the clamp’s location so that the microphone is located opposite your mouth and then tighten the screws. You may need to reposition the Clamp repeatedly until you identify the best spot. The microphone must be positioned vertically and not horizontally.

If you have purchased a helmet clamp version with the corded micro-

phone, please refer to section ATTACHING THE CORDED MICROPHONE

CLAMP ON A FULL-FACED HELMET

Glue Plate Method

You have the option to glue the Helmet Clamp onto your helmet, when the above standard method cannot be used, or in case you prefer to secure the Helmet Clamp with adhesive glue. This option has been successfully used for a range of high end helmets.

NOTE: While we have no reason to believe that the gluing option might negatively affect any helmet, Cardo does not assume any responsibility to that affect, irrespective of its nature and circumstances. The Glue Plate is offered as a free option that you may choose to use at your own risk and subject to renouncement of any future claims.

Caution: This process can be done only once!

1. Use the enclosed Allen Wrench to remove both Allen screws and release the Helmet Clamp’s back plate.

2. Determine the location on the helmet where the Helmet Clamp must be attached.

3. Adjust the Helmet Clamp’s location on the Helmet so that the microphone is located opposite your mouth.

You may need to reposition the Clamp repeatedly until you identify the best spot. The microphone must be positioned vertically and scala rider ® Q2 ™ MultiSet pro

7

8 not horizontally (Be sure to clean the selected area prior to the gluing process).

4. Use the pre-moistened Towelette to clean the helmet area where you want to install the Glue Plate. Allow to dry thoroughly.

5. Peel the foil cover from the Glue Plates’ adhesive pad.

6. Place the Glue Plate into position according to #3. Press firmly 15 seconds on all 3 parts of the Glue Plate.

7. The adhesive pad bonds to full strength over the next 24 hours.

Therefore it is recommended to not use the headset during this 24 hour period.

8. Fasten the Clamp to the Glue Plate using the Allen screws that were previously removed.

If you have purchased a helmet clamp version with the corded

microphone, please proceed as follows:

ATTACHING THE CORDED MICROPHONE CLAMP ON A

FULL-FACED HELMET

If you are using the corded microphone version, you must first make sure your helmet clamp is attached to your helmet as described in previous section

(ATTACHING THE CLAMP ON THE HELMET).

Clean the exact spot on the internal padding of the helmet, opposite your mouth, where the microphone will be placed and proceed as follows.

a. Peel the foil cover from the adhesive Velcro pad and place the

Velcro pad on the chosen location opposite your mouth.

b. Attach the microphone to the Velcro, as shown in photo.

c. When done, tighten the screws of the clamp scala rider ® Q2 ™ MultiSet pro

POSITIONING THE SPEAKERS

Attach the speakers to the Velcro inside your helmet opposite your ears (short speaker cord for the left ear [A] and the long speaker cord [B] for the right ear).

You may want to use the supplied Velcro pad.

Using two speakers inside the helmet may be prohibited in certain jurisdictions. If this is the case, you should tuck away the long corded speaker underneath the helmet padding as follows:

Lead the speaker cord [B] alongside the rim of the padding to the right side and then back to the left side, near speaker

[A]. Then place the speaker [B] underneath the padding.

ATTACHING:

Slide the headset downwards along the sliding panel until a clicking sound indicates that the headset is locked in place.

WORKING WITH THE FM RADIO

Your headset is equipped with an FM Radio receiver and RDS (Radio

Data System) technology, allowing you to choose how and when you listen to your favorite stations.

The scala rider Q2 pro

enables you to listen to FM Radio while you are not receiving audio from another audio source.

While listening to the radio, you do not have to worry about missing any calls, as the headset automatically mutes the FM Radio and switches to Bluetooth headset operation when an incoming call is received, or when you decide to initiate a call. When the conversation is over, the headset automatically tunes back in to the FM Radio.

The RDS Feature

Thanks to the RDS feature, your headset will automatically select the strongest signal available for the FM station you wish to listen to, no matter where you are riding. This allows you to leave your hands on the handlebars at all times with no need to adjust the radio station frequency while you are in motion.

To use the RDS feature while the Radio is on, press and hold the

Volume Up and Volume Down Buttons simultaneously for 3 seconds.

The headset will display a solid blue light indicating that the RDS function is enabled. The headset will display a solid red light indicating that the RDS function is disabled.
