Note:
1. The USB power & data cable is also used for firmware upgrade of the
I303SK.
2. The USB wall charger is not included in the package. Any 3rd party USB
charger can be used with KAPPA products if the charger is approved by
either FCC, CE, IC, or other locally approved agencies that KAPPA accepts.
Please contact KAPPA regarding locally approved agencies KAPPA accepts.
Checking Battery Level
You can check the battery level in two different ways when the headset
is powering on.
LED Indicator
When the headset is powering on, the red LED ashes rapidly indicating
the battery level.
LED Status
4 ashes High, 70~100%
3 ashes Medium, 30~70%
2 ashes Low, 0~30%
Charging the I303SK
You can charge the I303SK by connecting the supplied USB power &
data cable into a computer USB port or USB wall charger. You can use
any standard micro-USB cable to charge the I303SK. The LED turns
red while charging, and turns blue when the headset is fully charged. It
takes about 2.5 hours to fully charge.
Note:
Please make sure to take off your I303SK-installed helmet while charging.

I303SK
Voice Prompt Indicator
When you power on the headset, keep pressing and holding the (+)
Button and (–) Button simultaneously for about 3 seconds until you hear
three high tone beeps. Then you will hear a voice prompt indicating the
battery level. However, if you release the buttons as soon as the headset
turns on, you will not hear the voice prompt for the battery level.
Low Battery Warning
When the battery is low, the blinking blue LED in stand-by mode turns to
red and you will hear mid-tone triple beeps and a voice prompt saying
“Low battery”.
Adjusting the Volume Level
You can easily adjust the volume by pressing the (+) Button or the
(–) Button. You will hear a beep when the volume reaches maximum
or minimum level. The volume is set and maintained independently at
different levels for each audio source even when you turn off and on
the headset. For example, once you set the volume for mobile phone
handsfree, it will not change even if you adjust the volume when you
hear Bluetooth MP3 music. So you can always maintain the preferred
optimum volume level for each audio source.
Function Priority
The I303SK operates in the following order of priority:
(Highest) Mobile Phone
Intercom
(Lowest) Bluetooth Stereo Music
A lower priority function is always interrupted by a higher priority function.
For example, stereo music is interrupted by an intercom call, and intercom
conversation is interrupted by an incoming mobile phone call.
Fault Reset
When the I303SK is not working properly or is in faulty status for any
reason, you may reset by pushing the pin-hole reset button on the left
speaker unit. Insert a paper clip into the reset pin-hole and press and
hold the reset button for a second with light pressure. The I303SK will be
switched off. Turn the system back on and try again. However, this will
not restore the headset to factory default settings.

GPS Pairing as Mobile Phone
If GPS is not only used for turn-by-turn voice instructions but also is your
preferred Bluetooth stereo music source, you can pair the GPS to the
I303SK by following the simple procedures in “Mobile Phone Pairing”.
When you do this, the I303SK thinks the GPS is a mobile phone. But the
I303SK can directly pair an additional mobile phone.
Note:
You have to use a motorcycle specific GPS which transmits turn-by-turn
voice instruction to the headset by Bluetooth. Most automotive GPS systems
don’t have this feature.

1.
When you have an incoming call, simply press the (+) Button to answer
the call.
2. You can also answer the incoming call by loudly speaking any word
of your choice if Voice Activated Phone Answering, VOX phone
is
enabled. (Refer to “Enabling/Disabling Voice Activated Phone Answering”
for details.)
3. To end a call, press and hold the (+) Button for 2 seconds until you
hear a mid-tone single beep, or wait for the called person to end the
call.
4. To reject a call, press and hold the (–) Button for 2 seconds until you
hear a beep while the phone is ringing.
5. There are several ways to make a phone call:
• Enter numbers on your mobile phone keypad and make a call.
Then the call is automatically transferred to the headset.
• Press and hold the (+) Button for 3 seconds in stand-by mode
until you hear a high tone single beep to activate the voice dialing
of your mobile phone. For this, the voice dialing feature must be
available on the mobile phone. Refer to your mobile phone manual
for further instruction.
• To redial the last number, press and hold the (–) Button for 3
seconds in stand-by mode until you hear a high tone single beep.
You will hear a voice prompt saying “Last number redial”.
Note:
1.
If you are using multipoint mobile phone connection and you have an
incoming call from the second phone during the call of the first phone, then
you may still receive the call from second phone. In this case, the call from
the first phone is on waiting mode. If you end a call, then it will automatically
guide you to the first phone call.
2.
If you are using multipoint connection of mobile phone and GPS, you may not
listen to the GPS voice instruction during the phone call.
Stereo Music
You can listen to stereo music by Bluetooth wireless stereo. The Bluetooth
audio device must be paired with the I303SK by following the
“Bluetooth
Stereo Device Pairing” instructions. The I303SK
supports the Audio/
Video Remote Control Prole (AVRCP), so if your Bluetooth audio device
also supports the AVRCP, you can use the I303SK to remotely control
music playback. So, you can not only adjust the volume but also use the
functions such as play, pause, track forward and track backward.
• To adjust the volume, press the (+) Button or the (–) Button.
• To play or pause music, press and hold the (+) Button for 1 second
until you hear a double beep.

intercom call. You will also hear a voice prompt saying “Intercom
requested”. In this case, the intercom call does not override the

17
English
I303SK
mobile phone call because intercom has lower priority than mobile
call. You have to hang up the mobile phone call to make or receive an
intercom call.
Intercom Failure
When you try to start an intercom conversation with an intercom friend
who is already having a mobile phone call with another person, you will
hear a low tone double beep signifying a busy signal. You will also hear a
voice prompt saying “Intercom failed, try again later”. In this case, you
have to try again later. On the other hand, the intercom friend will hear
4 high tone beeps alerting them that there is an incoming intercom call.
Intercom Reconnection
If your intercom friend goes out of range while having an intercom
conversation, you may hear static noise and eventually the intercom will
be disconnected. In this case, the I303SK automatically tries to reconnect
the intercom every 8 seconds. You will hear high tone double beeps until
