Fitting your BT SKI Earwarmer
system
The Earwarmer audio system includes two
ultra-at stereo speakers and one microphone
with boom, all assembled into a soft and warm
headset.
Midland BT SKI is the best solution for Bluetooth
communications, designed to be used without
helmet or with semi-rigid ski helmets.
Fitting and removing your Midland BT SKI
The BT SKI can be easily tted by sliding it
downwards so that it ts into the slot of the
xing device.
BT SKI is maintained in position thanks to the
xing clip located on the upper section (A).
To detach the BT SKI, simply press the xing
clip and push the unit upwards.
Using the BT SKI without helmet
After have xed your BTSKI on its suitable tool
and have inserted the audio kit plug into the
central socket, wear your headset as shown in
the gure. Please, be sure to have placed the
microphone in the right way, with the white sign
oriented towards your mouth.
Using the BTSKI with a semi-rigid helmet
To place the BT SKI into a semi-rigid helmet
you should rst of all remove the little triangular
pads, used to cover the ears in most of helmets
on sale, and then put your helmet directly on the
BT SKI device.
If your helmet is not equipped with the two
removable pads, you could anyway mount your
BT SKI system by using the supplied Velcro-
band. Be sure to x the Velcro-band as shown
in the gure.

Now, x the BT SKI on the Velcro-band. Wear
your headset, insert the connection cable of the
headset into the BT SKI device and wear the
helmet.
Fitting and wiring your BT SKI “Uni-
versal helmet” system
Midland BT SKI thanks to the “Universal
Helmet” audio kit can be mounted on every kind
of helmet: rigid and semi-rigid ones.
The “Universal helmet” audio system is
composed of two ultra-at high performance
stereo speakers and one microphone with
boom (integrated to the speaker on the right).
To wire the helmet.
Thanks to the functional Velcro band (or the bi-
adhesive plate), it is possible to x the speakers
inside the ear pad (the nearest they are to your
ears, the better will be the sound quality)
Wires can be hidden inside the padding.
To achieve the best microphone performance,
be sure to have placed the boom mike the
nearest to your mouth.
It is very important to keep the sponge on the
microphone in order to reduce wind noises or
background interferences.
![](/img.php?id=1610628&img=bg6.png)
6
The best known and distribu-
ted helmet brands on the mar-
ket are designed to contain the
speaker inside the padding.
The Universal Helmet solution
can be perfectly placed inside;
just put the speakers into the
special compartment in corre-
spondence to your ears.
The majority of the mo-
dels have a pocket on each
side(with a Velcro closure);
remove the foam rubbers and replace them with the speakers.
From the little opening of the right, let the boom microphone and the connection plug exit.
Adjust the boom microphone the nearest to your mouth.
Other helmet models have a little clasp under the soft padding. In this case, open the zip
and place the speakers near your ears. Let the boom mike exit from the end of the zip and
adjust it. The plug should exit from that little opening too in order to connect it to your BT
SKI.
To x the BT SKI
In case you have a semi-rigid helmet, you
should mount your BT SKI system by using the
supplied Velcro band.
Be sure to x the Velcro band on the right side
of the helmet between the closing laces, as
shown in the gure below.
Now, x the BT SKI on the Velcro band by
slipping it down.
Insert the connection cable into the Audio kit
plug of the BT SKI device.

In case you have a rigid helmet, you should
mount your BT SKI system by using the bi-
adhesive plate.
This little and practical mounting system allows
you to t the BT SKI on the rigid surface of the
helmet. Just clasp and slide the BT SKI device
down and connect it to the audio kit.
Switching your Midland BTSKI
on and off
Switching the unit on:
› Press and hold “Control” button down for
approximately 3 seconds until the BLUE in-
dicator lights.
Switching the unit off:
› Press and hold both “Control” and “VOL-”
buttons together for approximately 3 seconds
until the RED indicator ashes 3 times, thus
lessening the chances that you might turn off
the unit accidentally (especially whilst wea-
ring heavy gloves).
Adjusting the volume
Your Midland BT SKI uses AGC technology,
which automatically adjusts the listening
volume in relation to background noises.
However, it is also possible to manually adjust
the volume by means of the “Volume+” and
“Volume -“buttons.
Attention: volume can be adjusted only
when an audio kit connection is active. (In-
tercom, music, phone call… )
Pairing with Bluetooth devices
Your Midland BT SKI is a Bluetooth unit that can
be paired with other Bluetooth devices, such as
a mobile phone or another BT SKI device for
Intercom communications.
Before performing this procedure, it is
necessary to set BT SKI into the Setup mode.
Setup mode
Switch off the BT SKI device. Press and hold
down the central button “Control” for about
7 sec. until the red indicator switches on
permanently. BT SKI is now in “Setup” mode
and can therefore be paired with other devices.
Exiting from the Setup mode
To exit the Setup mode double click the
“Control” button. Once the red light turns off,
the blue led starts blinking.

Using the features of the
Bluetooth devices
Using the telephone feature
To use the Telephone feature, be sure the units
are correctly paired together.
Pairing the unit with a mobile phone
1. Enable the Bluetooth device search feature
on your mobile phone. As this procedure va-
ries according to the brand and model of the
mobile phone, refer to the manual supplied to
your particular phone for further information.
2. Set the BT SKI unit in “Setup” mode, then
press the Control button on the unit until the
red and blue indicators start ashing.
3. After a few seconds the mobile phone will di-
splay “Midland BT SKI”. Select it and follow
the instructions provided in your mobile pho-
ne manual to accept the pairing. When prom-
pted, enter the pairing code, which is 0000
(four zeroes). Your mobile phone should then
display a conrmation message if the pairing
operation has been successfully completed
4. The BT SKI will automatically exit the set up
mode (red indicator on) and go to the working
mode (blue light ashing).
Answering a call
When you hear the phone ring, you can answer
in two different ways:
Vocally:
Simply say one word to answer the call and
start talking. Remembering that you can only do
this if you answer the call after the third Ring.
(Be aware that some phones may not support
voice answering)
Manually:
Tap the “Control” button and start speaking.
Rejecting a call
If you don’t wish to answer, you can let the
mobile phone ring or press the “Control” button
for a few seconds (you will hear one audio
conrmation tone).
Making a call
There are several ways to make a call.
From the mobile keypad:
Dial the number on the mobile keypad:
› Press “Send” on the mobile phone.
To redial the last number:
› Press and hold “Control” button for 3 secon-
ds in order to redial the last number (you will
hear one audio conrmation tone).
To make a voice call:
› Briey press “Control” button. If your mobile
phone supports voice calls, you will be asked
to speak the name of the contact you wish
to call.
Priority: Calls have a high priority, which means
that all other communications are temporarily
disabled when a call arrives and automatically
re-enabled once the call ends.
Attention: the voice call command is possi-
ble only if the BTSKI has never been con-
nected to another BTSKI for Intercom com-
munication.
Ending a call
There are several ways to end a call:
› Wait for the called person to end the call.
› Press the “Control” button for 3 seconds (you

Using the MP3 player feature of the
mobile phone
Many mobile phones are now designed to be
used as stereo MP3 players. The BT SKI device
fully supports the A2DP and AVRCP protocols
that enable you to listen to stereo music and
remotely control your mobile phone’s MP3
player. You can even use the buttons on the BT
SKI unit to control the following play options:
Play, Pause, Forward and Backward.
Available controls:
› To play/pause music, double click the “Con-
trol” button.
› To skip forward to the next song, keep
pressed the “Volume+” button.
› To skip backwards to the previous song,
keep pressed the “volume-“ button.
› To enable your connected MP3 Player
(ADP/AVRCP), press and hold down the “Vo-
lume +” and “Volume-“ buttons for 3 seconds
(this feature is active by default).
› To disable the MP3 player, press and hold
down the ”Volume+” and “volume-“ buttons (2
beeps will conrm it).
Priority: the music listening mode has the lo-
west priority. Therefore, it will always be disa-
bled when another type of communication is
enabled.
Using the intercom feature
To use the Intercom feature, be sure both BT
SKI units are turned on and previously paired
together.
Pairing with another BTSKI device
Place both BT SKI units in Setup mode (red
indicator permanently on) Press the “Volume +”
button on the rst unit until the RED and BLUE
lights begin to ash rapidly and alternately.
Then press the “Volume –“button on the second
unit until the RED and BLUE lights begin to
ash rapidly and alternately.
Now both BT SKI units are trying to pair to each
other.
When successfully paired, the blue led of each
device will light for 1 sec and go back to setting
mode (red light always on) waiting for additional
pairing or setting procedures.
To use the two devices, exit the setting mode.
Double click on the “Control” button. The red
light will quit and the blue light will begin to
ash. Now you can use your BT SKI.
Priority: Intercom communications always have
a higher priority, compared to other communi-
cations, with the only exceptions being Tele-
phone.
Therefore, the Intercom feature automatically
disables all other communications.
The intercom feature is disabled during a phone
call, and is automatically re-enabled as soon as
these communications end.

Attention: some mobile phone release the
line after a few seconds, which means that
the Intercom feature may not be immediate-
ly available.
The Intercom feature can be enabled in two
ways:
Manual activation:
› Press “Control” button, on one of the two
units. Communication is enabled and re-
mains active until you press the “Control”
button again. You will hear 1 audio tone when
the Intercom feature is enabled and 2 audio
tones when it is disabled.
Voice activation (VOX):
› This is enabled by default. To start an Inter-
com communication, simply start talking.
Attention: every time the mini USB re-
charging plug is inserted (or detached),
the device automatically turns off. To
use the device while it is in charge, you
should turn it on again with the plug in-
serted.
The communication will remain active for all
the time you are talking. If there is no conver-
sation, the Intercom is automatically closed
after 20 seconds. To re-open it, simply start
talking again. When the Intercom is “VOX”
activated, you can decide to disable it before
the predened time, simply by pressing the
”Control” button once.
› To disable the voice activation mode, follow
the instructions provided in the “Special con-
gurations” section.
Distance
Two Midland BT SKI units can communicate
up to a maximum range of approximately
200meters outdoors. The maximum coverage
depends on the presence of obstructions in the
area or on the head orientation.
Resetting all paired devices
Sometimes you may nd it necessary to delete
all the pairing references stored in the BT SKI
unit (reset operation).
To perform this operation, switch off the BT SKI
and keep pressed the “Control” button. The red
led turns on. Simultaneously press and hold
down the “Volume +” and “Volume –“ buttons
for 4 seconds.
The Blue Light will be lit on for 1 sec.
This procedure deletes all the paired Bluetooth
devices stored in the memory and it is therefore
possible to start a new “clean” pairing session.
Using the wired audio input
Your Midland BT SKI is also supplied with
a wired audio input (labeled AUX), that can
be used to connect an audio source, like an
iPod (or any other MP3 Player) or a PMR446
transceiver for communications in group or for
a coverage increase. The wired audio input
allows a higher range of coverage respect to
what granted with Bluetooth technology.
Priority: the wired audio input has the lowest
priority when compared to the other Bluetooth
connections (including the Intercom) and will
therefore always be disabled when another
Bluetooth communication is opened.
![](/img.php?id=1610628&img=bgb.png)

Using a i-Pod/MP3 Player
Listening to music
To listen to music from the wired input, connect
the audio source using the cable supplied
with the BT SKI unit. The volume level is
automatically adjusted by the AGC system,
which means that you only need to adjust the
volume of your iPod/ MP3 player to a level that
will allow you to listen to music in normal speed.
Attention: it is not recommended to set the
maximum volume on the MP3 player.
Hint: We recommend that you perform a few
tests adjusting the volume of your iPod/MP3
player so at the normal speed the Headset vo-
lume is suited to your needs. The AGC system
will automatically increase the volume on higher
speed. Make a note to remember this setting for
future trips.
Attention: the volume adjustment, (“Volu-
me+” and “Volume –“) buttons, cannot be
used to adjust the volume of the wired audio
source(eg MP3 player).
Enabling/disabling the wire input
The wire input can be enabled and disabled
› Enabling: double click the “Control” button
(you will hear one audio conrmation tone).
› Disabling: double click the “Control”
button(you will hear two audio conrmation
tones).
Attention: this function is available only if
there is no music active via Bluetooth.
Using a Two Way Radio transceiver
To be able to use the transceiver, it is necessary
to purchase a specic cable (sold separately)
in order to connect the radio to your Midland
BT SKI.
Some manufacturers radios use a different pin
conguration, so we recommend that you ask
your dealer as to which cable is best suited to
your needs.
To communicate via the attached radio, press
the transmission Press To Talk (PTT) button to
speak and release it to listen. It is not possible to
talk and listen simultaneously. Communications
can be activated also without pushing the PTT
button, by enabling the VOX function.
Special congurations
Some Midland BT SKI features can be
congured to suit specic needs
› Enabling/Disabling the VOX feature (Inter-
com and telephone)
› Wired connection always on
Enabling/Disabling the VOX feature
(Intercom and telephone)
Enabling the intercom by voice (VOX)
The Intercom feature can be enabled both
manually and vocally (VOX). The VOX
activation is inuenced by the background
noise and therefore by the speed.
For optimum results, it is possible to choose
one of the following four microphone sensitivity
levels: high, medium, low and very low. The
default setting of BT SKI is “high”. It is also
possible to disable the VOX feature in order to
12
activate the Intercom and phone call answering
features in manual mode only.
Adjusting the sensitivity of the microphone
(VOX)
1. Enter the Setup mode: Switch your BTSKI
off.
Press and hold down the central button (Con-
trol) until the red indicator switches on perma-
nently. Your BT SKI is now in “Set up mode”.
2. Press the “Volume+” and “Control” buttons till
the red indicator will turn to steady blue.
3. Now, press “Volume +” or “Volume -“to in-
crease or reduce sensitivity. Every time you
press the Volume buttons the RED light will
ash for conrmation. When you reach the
end of the upper and lower limit, the RED
light will not ash.
4. Double press the “Control” button; the Blue
light will ash several times, in order to let you
know the selected sensitivity:
once = VOX disabled
Twice = very low sensitivity
3 times= low sensitivity
4 times= medium sensitivity
5 times = high sensitivity
Default = high sensitivity
5. The light indicator is now back to steady RED
(“Set up mode”) and the changes are conr-
med
6. If needed, you can adjust again the sensitivity
repeating the steps from point 2, otherwise
exit the Setting mode by double clicking the
“Control” button. Once the red light turns off,
the blue led starts blinking. Now you can use
your BT SKI.
Disabling the VOX feature (Intercom
and telephone)
Follow all the procedure described in the
previous steps and choose the option 1 (VOX
disabled). You will see the blue led blinks once.
Wired connection always on
This feature let’s you keep the wired connection
always on, even when the intercom is open.
This feature can be useful when you connect a
PMR446 transceiver.
Enabling:
› Enter the “Setup” mode.
› Press the “Volume+” and “Volume -” buttons
for one second. The blue LED will ash once.
› To exit the “Setup” mode double press the
“Control” button.
Disabling:
› Follow the same procedure up described;
now the blue LED will ash twice
› To exit the “Setup” mode double press the
“Control” button.
Recommendations
for specic uses
Recommendations for using
a PMR446 transceiver
If you wish to use a PMR446 transceiver for
group communications and simultaneously
maintain the Intercom feature enabled between
two BT SKI devices, you must remember that
the Intercom feature is enabled every time you
speak by means of the BT SKI’s VOX feature.
Consequently, radio communications will be
disabled whilst you are talking with somebody,
![](/img.php?id=1610628&img=bgd.png)
UK
13
because they have a lower priority compared
to Intercom communications. This can be
prevented by enabling the “Wired connection
always on” or disabling the VOX feature.
Disable the VOX feature, as explained in the
previous section, to make sure that the intercom
will not automatically be activated when you
speak on the PMR446. To enable the Intercom
feature when using this conguration, you will
have to press “Control” button manually. (This
operation disables radio communications that
will be automatically re-enabled when the
Intercom feature is disabled).
Attention! If you disable the VOX feature,
you will only be able to answer incoming
phone calls by pressing the “Control” but-
ton.
Use at your own risk
The use of the headphone-headset will impair
your ability to hear other sounds and others
around you.
Listening to music or speaking on a telephone
may prevent you from hearing others around
you and distract you from riding safely. The use
of such headphone-headset while skiing or ri-
ding may endanger you and others, and its use,
in some areas, could not be allowed.
Using this headset at a high volume may result
in permanent hearing loss.
If you experience ringing in your ear or any
other hearing related pain, reduce the volume
or discontinue using this device. With continued
use at high volume, your ears may become ac-
customed to the sound level, which may result
in permanent damage to your hearing.
Please use this device at a safe volume level.
