DOC10ONE-OM-R1B
The Voice Unit
For the best possible HIOD Talk range, position the Voice Unit in the armband included in the product
box and wear it on your upper arm. The voice unit can also be worn around the neck in the lanyard
included in the product box or in the back pocket of a cycling shirt.
Insert the Voice Unit in the pocket of the armband. Place the
armband on your upper right arm. Use the Velcro lid on the armband
to fasten excess cables.
NOTE! The best HIOD Talk range is achieved when worn in the
armband.
The microphone
Attach the microphone on the forward portion of the helmet band
like the arrow on the picture indicates. For optimum sound, place the
microphone in level with or below your ear.
NOTE! Use the wind muff for best quality sound.
The earphones
The HIOD earphones included in the box can be replaced with any earphones
with a 3,5 mm connector if preferred.
NOTE! Please be aware of the traffic around you. Unplug one earphone to
better hear surrounding sounds.

19"(27)"
DOC10ONE-OM-R1B
The adapter cables for waterproofing
To make sure your HIOD One fulfils the IPX7 standard of water resistance, make sure you attach the
adapter cables to the Voice Unit and keep the coverlids protecting the charging outlets on the Voice
Unit and the Control Unit tightly closed. The adapter cables can be found in the HIOD One product
box.
NOTE! Without the adapter cables between the Voice Unit and the microphone and earphones and if
the coverlids are not tightly closed it is not guaranteed that HIOD One is water resistant (IPX7
standard).
The Electrostatic Discharge protectors
Mounting the electrostatic discharge protectors on your HIOD One will give you an enhanced
protection against Electrostatic Discharge (ESD). The ESD protectors can be found in the HIOD One
product box. Pull the protectors over the 3.5 mm socket of the adapter cables to the Voice Unit so the
protectors cover the metal before jacking in the microphone and the earphones. During normal usage
of HIOD One, for instance while cycling, the risk for ESD is minimal. ESD can in rare cases lead to that
the units turn off in which case you have to turn them on again. It is recommended to use the ESD
protectors if you are in any way uncertain.
NOTE! Without the electrostatic discharge protectors it is not guaranteed that HIOD One is fully ESD
protected.
