Please follow all operating guidelines and parameters of the audio source device with
which you are using the speakers.
Keep the speakers clean and dry.
Do not attempt to disassemble the speakers, or alter and modify the wires.
Do not drop, knock, or shake the speakers.
Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to clean the speakers.
It is dangerous to ride a motorcycle or engage in sports activities while being unaware of your surroundings.
Only use your XSound 3 Helmet Speakers at volume levels at which you can still remain alert of what’s around
you. Please check your state and federal laws for using helmet audio while operating a motorized vehicle.
Do not operate your audio source device at high audio volumes when using XSound 3 Helmet Speakers.
Hearing experts advise against continuous exposure to high volume levels. If you experience ringing in your
ears, discontinue using the speakers.
The XSound 3 is a precision crafted audio product. Therefore, they
need to be installed precisely in contact and centered on your ears
for accurate sound projection. Any gaps and poor centering will
result in poor audio quality and volume fron wind and other
ambient noises.
The XSound 3 was designed and tested for use with IASUS Stealth,
Rekon and Mobile Ampliers, as well as smartphones, and digital
media players eqquiped with a 3.5mm jack. As such, the left speaker
cable is longer than the right. Each XSound 3 speaker is designated
left “L” and right “R” on the lightweight CNC aluminum housing.
IASUS does not directly support using the XSound 3 with non-IASUS
Bluetooth motorcycle headset. Please use at your own risk.

INSTALLING XSOUND3
We strongly recommend testing your speakers outside of your helmet first before installing them by
doing the following:
Connect the XSound 3 directly into your smartphone’s 3.5mm jack.
Hold the speakers in contact and centered on your ears while testing audio. Any gaps will compromise the sound.
Adjust the position of the speakers on your ears until the audio sounds the best. Remember their positions.
Wipe away any dust or debris on the surface where the XSound 3 will be installed onto.
Peel apart the Velcro adhesives (B1/B2) to reveal the loop and hook halves. They arrive in the box stuck together.
Place the XSound 3 (A) onto the velcro piece inside the helmet.
Repeat steps 1-5 for the other side.
Tuck the wires behind the helmet padding for a tidy installation.
Connect the XSound 3 to your audio source device. Use the 3.5mm
Extension Cable (F) if necessary.
Peel away the backing paper on the loop piece
(B1). Attach the loop piece into your helmet.
Peel away the backing paper on the hook piece (B2).
Attach the hook piece onto the back of the XSound 3.

BEFORE INSTALLING XSOUND3

EAR TAB (SOLD SEPARATELY)
TROUBLESHOOTING
• Ensure the XSound 3 helmet speakers are once again fully contacting your ears and centered on them after
putting your helmet on. If they are not centered, reposition the XSound 3 inside your helmet.
• If they do not make good contact, place a Foam Pad Spacer (C) in between the helmet and the XSound 3.
• For an increase in comfort, try placing the Comfort Fit Covers (E) over the Foam Covers (D).
You may sometimes nd that after putting on your helmet, your ears
may be folded against the speakers. This will prevent the XSound 3
from making full contact on them, resulting in poor audio quality and
lower volume. To remedy this, IASUS has included the Ear Tab.
To use, insert the tab on either side of your helmet’s eye port. Slide it
between the XSound 3 and the folded ear until it is unfolded.
For easy transport, the Ear Tab can be conveniently
secured to your keys with the included key chain fob.
