1. Introduction
Congratulations and thank you for purchasing
the scala-rider Team Set™ Bluetooth headset
for motorcycle helmets. Now you can wear
your helmet while talking hands-free on your
Bluetooth enabled mobile phone. In addition,
you can also communicate with your passenger
using the intercom feature.
If you are using a standard non-Bluetooth
mobile phone, you can still enjoy the headset’s
advantages by connecting our optional BTA II
Bluetooth Adapter to your mobile phone
(purchased separately).
The headset is compatible with the latest
Bluetooth version. 1.2 specifications, and
works equally well with Bluetooth version. 1.1.
Please read and familiarize yourself with all
the instructions, components and controls of
your headset prior to first use.
For safety reasons we strongly recommend not
to conduct phone calls and/or intercom
conversations above 80 km/h (50 mph). Safe
driving requires your complete attention and in
particular at higher speeds. Also, the audio
quality of your headset deteriorates with higher
speeds, causing additional distraction from the
traffic around you. All this adds undue risk to
you and your passenger.
Please refer to the waiver conditions at the end
of this manual.
We wish you an enjoyable and safe scala-rider
Team Set experience.

Interference With Other
Devices
Most electronic equipment is shielded from RF
signals. However, certain electronic equipment
may not be shielded against the RF signals that
emanate from your wireless equipment.
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers
Association recommends that a minimum
separation of about six inches (16 cm) be
maintained between a mobile phone or a
headset and a pacemaker to avoid potential
interference with the pacemaker. Be sure not to
interfere with the functionality of personal
medical devices.
Hearing Aids
Some digital headsets may interfere with some
hearing aids. In the event of such interference,
you should consult your hearing aid
manufacturer to discuss alternatives.
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical device,
consult the manufacturer of your device and/or
your physician to determine if it is adequately
shielded from interference caused by external
RF energy. Your physician may be able to
assist you in obtaining this information.

5. Before Using
Make sure that the headsets are fully charged
for at least five hours before initial use.
1. Connect the wall chargers to
Charging Jacks of each headset
(located between the two Volume
Control buttons).
2. While charging, the red indicator
light illuminates. When charging is
complete the light will turn off.
General Instructions
All Headset functions are controlled either by:
• pushing the Control or Intercom
Button either for a short period of less
than a second or a long period of over
three seconds
or
• by clicking the volume up and volume
down buttons.
Turning on the Headsets for
the First Time
THE DRIVER UNIT (silver logo): The driver
unit permits two communication modes:
• Mobile Phone connections with third
parties
• Intercom connection with the
passenger.
In order for the headset to work with your
cellular phone, they must first recognize each
other. This process is called “pairing”, and
only needs to be performed once for each
phone.
1. Turn on your phone and make sure its
Bluetooth function is activated.
2. With the Headset turned off press and
hold the Control Button until the red
and blue indicator lights begin rapidly
alternating.
3. Search for Bluetooth devices on your
phone by following the phone’s
instructions.
4. After a few seconds the phone will
list the scala-rider Team-Set as a
discovered device. Select it and
follow your phone’s instructions to
accept the pairing.
5. When prompted enter 0000 (four
zeros) as your PIN or passkey.
6. Your phone will confirm that pairing
has succeeded.
Note: If pairing is not completed within two
minutes the headset will return to standby
mode.
Your Headset can pair with up to eight phones,
and will automatically connect to the last
phone connected to the Headset.
Reconnecting the Headset
to a Paired Phone
Although you may have previously paired your
headset to your phone, each time you turn one
of them off, some phones require that you re-
establish the link. Reconnecting may also be
necessary when your headset and phone have
lost the radio signal because the distance
between them has exceeded 30 feet or 10
meters, or major obstacles have come in the
way. After you have turned on your headset
and mobile phone, there are several methods to
re-establish the link if needed:
• Assuming your mobile phone is voice
activation capable, press briefly the
headset’s CTRL button to activate voice
dial. A signal on your phone’s screen will
indicate that the link is re-established.
• Do nothing. Once a call is received, answer
by pressing the CTRL button.
5
• With some mobile phones you should refer
to your phone’s menu and/or manual.
• The most likely solution is to simply turn off
the headset and then turn on again after
several seconds.
THE PASSENGER UNIT (blue logo): This
unit is solely intended for intercom connection
with the driver and cannot initiate or receive a
phone call. To turn on the Passenger unit, press
the Control button until the blue indicator light
illuminates. The Driver and Passenger units are
supplied paired TO EACH OTHER.
Attaching the scala-rider
Units to Your Helmets
Perform this procedure for both the driver and
passenger helmets.
1. Use the enclosed
Allen Wrench to
loosen the two
screws on the Back
Plate.
2. Slide the Back
Plate between the
internal padding
and the external
shell of the helmet
(If the external
shell is too thick
use the extension
pad)
3. Adjust the clamp’s
location so that the
microphone is
located at the
corner of your
mouth, and then
tighten the screws.
Attach the speaker
to the Velcro on
inside of your
helmet opposite
your ear, or use the
supplied Velcro
pad.
4. Slide the Headset
downwards along
the sliding panel
until a clicking
sound indicates that
the Headset is
locked in place.
The Headset name
appears on the
inside of the
Headset. Make sure
that you attach the
proper Headset to
each helmet (Silver
logo = Rider, Blue
logo= Passenger).
Removing the Headset
From the Helmet
Your Headset can be removed for charging and
storage by pressing your finger gently against
the tab and sliding the Headset up with the
other hand (Figure 1).
Figure 1
We recommend that you store your Headset in
the enclosed carry pouch when not in use.
6. Handling Calls
NOTE: Certain advanced features of the scala-
rider Team Set are only accessible to phones
equipped with the hands-free profile.

Answering Calls (Including
Voice Recognition Feature)
The ring tone for incoming calls increases
gradually. When you hear the ring tone (on the
headset), there are two ways you can answer
the call:
• Tap the CTRL button on your headset
once (Figure 2)
• Assuming the Voice Recognition feature
is active (See Section 7 below), answer the
call by pronouncing loudly any word of
your choice within 7 seconds. If you

terminate calls.
Volume Control
The scala-rider Team Set headset comes
equipped with AGC technology to
automatically adjust itself to the optimal
speaker volume. Its embedded sensors
continuously measure the ambient noise and
driving speed to make manual adjustment of
the volume buttons virtually unnecessary.
You can also adjust the volume anytime by
pressing the volume buttons one step at a time
(Figure 4). For each step of adjustment, you
will hear a short beep.

and up to 120km/h or 75m/h with closed full
faced helmet.
Enable/Disable the Voice
Recognition Feature
Press and hold the Volume Up and Volume
Down buttons simultaneously for 3 seconds to
enable/disable the VR feature. You will hear
an ascending/descending tone confirming the
change each time you switch this feature ON
or OFF respectively.
Answering Calls Using
Voice Recognition
We recommend that you set your phone to
auto-answer before driving your motorcycle.
The phone will then automatically answer any
incoming calls, thus allowing you to talk
without having to perform any actions.
Alternately, you can answer an incoming call
via the headset, by loudly saying any word of
your choice within 7 seconds. If you remain
silent the call will be rejected (See following
section).
Rejecting Calls Using Voice

phone, can I still use it with my scala-rider
Team Set headset?
You can hold on to your non-BT mobile phone
and still enjoy the benefits of the headset, if
you use the Cardo BTA II Bluetooth Adapter
(purchased separately). The BTA II Adapter
plugs directly into the headset jack of most
non-Bluetooth phones, thereby enabling the
phone to communicate wirelessly with your
headset.
Is the battery removable?
The battery is not removable and you should
never try to open the headset. The Headset
should be serviced by authorized personnel
only.
Do I need to turn my headset off or leave it
on when it is recharging?
Either way is fine.
When I turn on my cell phone, do I need to
pair or link my cell phone and headset again?
Once your mobile phone and headset are
paired, you will not have to pair it again,
unless an unforeseen error has occurred.
Generally, you will only need to implement the
simple steps of reconnecting your phone and
headset each time either or both are turned off
or have moved more than approximately 30
feet (10 meters) apart from each other.
