Installation into Full-Coverage & Flip-front Style HelmetsThe full-coverage type of helmet presents special challenges for headset instal-lation. If you do not feel you are up to the task, you may send your "un-modi-fied" helmet to our factory in Tucson and we will perform the installation for anominal fee. (Please call first to insure that J&M is able to install a headsetinto your particular brand/model of helmet.)1. Most full coverage-style helmets have cheek pads or a complete nose sec-tion that can be removed. Carefully do so at this time, paying special attentionso as not to break or damage any of the polystyrene parts.2. Using a headset speaker as a guide, mark the circular pieces of styrene tobe removed from the back of the ear area of the nose section or the cheek pad.See Figure 7. With an Exacto®knife, cut a hole slightly smaller than the speak-er so that the speaker will "press fit" into the hole without damaging thestyrene. An airtight seal is necessary to preserve bass response as the soundpressure from the back of the speaker housing should not be allowed to mixwith the sound pressure from the front. Also, be careful not to cut or damagethe fabric lining. 3. Locate an area in the nose section just to the left of center to mount themicrophone. See Figure 8. Make sure that this placement will not interfere withany venting mechanisms or other parts of the helmet upon re-installation of thenose section.Using an Exacto®knife, cut a hole of sufficient size to allow the microphoneto be mounted through the nose section and be pressed against the insideshell. See Figure 9. Insert the microphone cartridge through the hole from theback side, install the rubber boot and push the mike back into the hole fromthe front side. See Figure 10. If the helmet is the flip-front style: Position the boom microphone clamp onthe left side of the helmet so that the microphone lines up with the wearer’smouth. Tighten the clamp with the rubber spacer in place. See Figure 13 —Flip-Front.4. Place the speakers into the cheekpads. See Figure 11.5. Clean the inside of the helmet shell where the speakers and microphone willbe positioned with a cloth dampened with alcohol. Peel the backing from eachsupplied Velcro pad and press it into the proper position for the speakers andmicrophone to contact when the helmet is re-assembled.6. Reinstall the nose section and/or cheek pads. Push the speakers and micro-phone firmly against the Velcro®pads.7. Mount the clamp in the proper position on the left bottom edge of the hel-met and tighten the clamp with the rubber friction spacer in place. See Figure13.8. Using the included wooden tool, be careful to push the wires into the gapbetween the helmet liner and shell. See Figure 14.Notes: When using your intercom system, regardless of headset brand or type, it is impor-tant to turn the intercom volume level high enough for comfortable conversation, but notany higher. Unnecessarily high intercom volume levels will only increase the unwanted windand background noise you may experience.J&M Bluetooth Helmet Headset Installation InstructionsWARNING!

Installation into a 3/4-style Helmet1. Begin by examining the ear pocket area in your hel-met. Make sure that there is sufficient room to mountthe speaker in the ear pocket. If you will be mountingthe J&M DynaPort®speakers also make sure that youcan position the porting tube down along the seam inthe cheek pad. See Figure 1. (It is important to havethe helmet fit and feel the same after the speakersare mounted as it did before the headset wasinstalled.) The porting tube should be positioned toallow the sound pressure from this tube to be direct-ed out of the ear pocket. This will help enhance bassresponse.Some three-quarter style helmets, Shoei and HJC,for example, have ear pockets that are a bit too smallfor the speaker to be properly placed. In this case foldout the interior lining and with an Exacto®knife care-fully remove a very thin "half moon" of polystyrene toallow the speaker to be positioned slightly higher anddeeper into the ear pocket. See Figures 3 and 4. Thisshould keep the speaker from contacting your ears.Be careful to remove only the minimum amount nec-essary, no more than 1/4 of an inch.Once you have made room for and/or positionedthe speakers, remove them.2. Clean the bottom of each ear pocket with a clothdampened with alcohol. Peel the backing from thesupplied Velcro®pads and press them into the bottomof each ear pocket.3. Position the boom microphone/amplifier clampassembly on the left side of the helmet so that themicrophone lines up with the wearer’s mouth. Markthis position. See Figure 2.Tighten the clamp to the helmet with the rubber fric-tion spacer in place.4. Position the speakers in their proper place in theear pockets and press them firmly onto the Velcro®pads.5. Pull the large or small wind sock (which-ever youprefer) over the microphone.6. Using the enclosed wooden tool, carefully push thespeaker wires into the gap between the helmet linerand shell.
