STEP 2 (Optional)
SET UP FOR RIDER-TO-PASSENGER INTERCOM:
PAIRING
There are two ways that the scala-rider Q2 can be used for Rider-to-
Passenger communication.
A. Both Rider and Passenger are using scala-rider Q2 headsets.
To Pair the two headsets, follow the Steps listed in the section
above titled PRIMARY BUDDY PAIRING.
B. The Rider is using a scala-rider Q2 and the Passenger is using a
scala-rider headset (i.e. a scala-rider, a scala-rider FM or a scala-
rider TeamSet Driver unit headset).
To Pair the two headsets:
1. Starting with the scala-rider headset turned OFF, press and
hold the CTRL button until the Red/Blue lights begin rapidly
alternating.
2. Starting with the scala-rider Q2 turned ON, simultaneously
press and hold the CTRL Button and MC Button for six

is in Intercom Pairing mode.
3. Within a few seconds, the scala-rider Q2 will show a solid Red
light for two seconds, and then begin ashing slowly in Blue.
NOTE: If the Pairing process is not completed within one minute the
headset will return to Standby mode.
NOTE: When using a scala-rider headset as a Passenger headset,
Voice Connect Intercom can be initiated only by the scala-rider
Q2 headset. Manual Connect Intercom can be initiated from either
headset.
RESET INTERCOM PAIRING

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.
Turning the FM Radio On
