2. Attach the headset main unit to the clamp. Insert the main unit in
the clamp until you feel the click that signals a secure attachment.
3. If you have any problem mounting the clamp unit on the helmet for
any reason, you may use the glued surface mounting plate which
can be attached to the external surface of the helmet.
• Locate a proper surface on the helmet to attach the unit, clean
the helmet surface location with a moistened towel, and allow to
dry thoroughly.
• Peel off the cover of the adhesive tape of the plate and attach the
unit on the proper surface of your helmet.
Note:
Sena recommends the clamp unit over the glued surface mounting plate.
Even though the glued surface mounting plate is provided for convenience,
Sena does not assume any responsibility for use of it. Users may have to
use the glued plate at their own risk and responsibility.
4. Place the helmet speakers along with the velcro pads, centered to
your ear, in the ear pockets of the helmet. If the helmet has deep
ear pockets, you can use the speaker pads to place the speakers
closer to your ears.
5. Attach the boom microphone included in the “Basic Kit” between
the internal padding and the external shell. The boom microphone
should be mounted on the inside surface of the external shell so it
is facing properly towards your mouth. Please make sure that the
microphone is located close to your mouth when you wear the helmet.
