You can use the interphone system on the motorcycle by connecting both the pilot’s
helmet and the passenger’s to the motorcycle. Each helmet must be equipped with the
MCS II system.
Volume levels of the radio and of intercom have to be set from the motorbike’s audio
system, as desired.
When using the INTERCOM function, the volume has to be set at a comfortable level
for conversation. Do not increase the volume too much to avoid background
interference.
For all audio settings and adjustments, please read your motorbike manual.
Warning: Connect the cables so that they are free and do not hinder riding nor reduce
the freedom of movement, and do not wind them around the limbs, bust or neck. Do
not lock the connectors so that, if necessary, they can be easily disconnected.
Warning: While using the connection cable, always use helmets provided with a visor,
and keep the visor in lowered position
