NOTE: The Main SCALA RIDER Q2 is able to communicate with either the Primary Buddy or the Secondary Buddy. The Primary Buddy and Secondary Buddy are not able to communicate directly via Intercom.NOTE: If the Pairing process is not completed within one minute the headset will return to Standby mode. STEP 2 (Optional)SET UP FOR RIDER-TO-PASSENGER INTERCOM: PAIRING There are two ways that the SCALA RIDER Q2 can be used for Rider-to-Passenger communication.A. Both Rider and Passenger are using SCALA RIDER Q2 headsets.To Pair the two headsets, follow the Steps listed in the section above titled PRIMARY BUDDY PAIRING.B. The Rider is using a SCALA RIDER Q2 and the Passenger is using a SCALA RIDER headset  (i.e. a SCALA RIDER Solo, a SCALA RIDER FM or a SCALA RIDER TeamSet Driver unit headset).To Pair the two headsets:1. Starting with the SCALA RIDER headset turned OFF, press and hold the CTRL button until the Red/Blue lights begin rapidly alternating.2.

If your GPS device prompts for a PIN or Passkey enter 0000 (four zeros).5. Your GPS device will conrm that pairing has succeeded. The headset will begin ashing slowly in Blue. 6. If you wish to use a Bluetooth mobile phone to make and receive calls through the headset, you must now pair your mobile phone to your GPS device by following your GPS and/or mobile phone’s instructions.NOTE: If the Pairing process is not completed within two minutes the headset will return to Standby mode. ATTACHING THE CLAMP ON THE HELMETThe Helmet Clamp must be attached to the left side of the helmet. Once attached, the headset unit can be mounted  or released from the Helmet Clamp at any time. There are two methods that can be used in order to attach the Clamp onto the helmet:Standard Method: Recommended for most helmet types.Glue Plate Method: Recommended for helmets to which the standard method cannot be applied, using the Glue Plate included in the box.  Standard Method1. 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. 3. Adjust the Clamp’s location so that the microphone is located opposite the center of your mouth, and then tighten the screws. You may need to reposition the Clamp repeatedly until you identify the best spot. The microphone must be positioned vertically and not horizontally. Glue Plate MethodYou have the option to glue the Helmet Clamp onto your helmet, when the above standard method cannot be used, or in case you prefer to secure the Helmet Clamp with adhesive glue. This option has been successfully used for a range of high end helmets.NOTE: While we have no reason to believe that the gluing op-tion might negatively aect any helmet, Cardo does not assume any responsibility to that aect, irrespective of its nature and circumstances. The Glue Plate is oered as a free option that you may choose to use at your own risk and subject to renouncement of any future claims.Caution: This process can be done only once! 1. Use the enclosed Allen Wrench to remove both Allen screws and release the Helmet Clamp’s back plate.2. Determine the location on the helmet where the Helmet Clamp must be attached.3. Adjust the Helmet Clamp’s location on the Helmet so that the microphone is located opposite the center of your mouth. You may need to reposition the Clamp repeatedly until you identify the best spot. The microphone must be positioned vertically and not horizontally (Be sure to clean the selected area prior to the gluing process as described in # 4 below).CORRECT INCORRECTAllen WrenchBack Plate CORRECT INCORRECTQGQ2_114 - QG0132.indd   7 7/21/08   3:48:42 PM
8| SCALA RIDER Q2™4. Use the pre-moistened Towelette to clean the helmet area where you want to install the Glue Plate. Allow to dry thoroughly.5. Peel the foil cover from the Glue Plates’ adhesive pad. 6. Place the Glue Plate into position according to #3. Press rmly 15 seconds on all 3 parts of the Glue Plate. 7. The adhesive pad bonds to full strength over the next 24 hours. Therefore it is recommended to not use the headset during this 24 hour period. 8. Fasten the Clamp to the Glue Plate using the Allen screws that were previously removed. POSITIONING THE SPEAKERSAttach the speakers to the Velcro inside your helmet opposite your ears (short speaker cord for the left ear [A] and the long speaker cord [B] for the right ear). You may want to use the supplied Velcro pad.Using two speakers inside the helmet may be prohibited in certain jurisdictions. If this is the case, you should tuck away the long corded speaker underneath the helmet padding as follows: Lead the speaker [B] alongside the rim of the padding to the right side and then back to the left side, near speaker [A]. Then place the speaker [B] underneath the padding. ATTACHING AND REMOVING THE HEADSET FROM THE HELMET CLAMPATTACHING:Slide the headset downwards along the sliding panel until a clicking sound indicates that the headset is locked in place.REMOVING: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.We recommend that you remove the headset from the helmet when not in use.Press here to removeSpeaker ASpeaker BSpeaker BCableSpeaker ASpeaker BQGQ2_114 - QG0132.indd   8 7/21/08   3:48:48 PM
