performance of Bluetooth headset that it is
connected to. In general, it is shorter than
normal intercom distance since it uses the
BluetoothHands-FreeProle.

10 TROUBLESHOOTING
10.1 Intercom Failure
When you try to start an intercom conversation
with an intercom friend who is unavailable
within range or already having a conference
intercom with other riders or a mobile phone
call, you will hear a low tone double beep
signifying an intercom busy signal. In this
case, you have to try again later.
10.2 Intercom Reconnection
If your intercom friend goes out of range while
having an intercom conversation, you may hear
static noise and eventually the intercom will be
disconnected. In this case, the LINKIN Ride
Pal automatically tries to reconnect the
intercom every 8 seconds and you will hear
high tone double beeps until the intercom is
reestablished. If you do not want to make a
reconnection, tap the Center Button to stop the
attempt.
