4.5 RESETTING YOUR HEADSET
If your SRC-System™ fails to respond despite repeated attempts,
you can reset your headset by charging it. After approximately 10
seconds, remove the headset from the charger and turn it on again. It
should now respond as expected.
5. GETTING STARTED
5.1 REPLACING THE EXISTING ACOUSTIC COLLAR WITH THE
SRCSYSTEM
First, remove the existing Acoustic Collar from your helmet as follows:
1. Open both snap buttons.
2. Pull out the Acoustic Collar from the rear at its bended center.
3. Release the collar’s pins from their corresponding indentations
inside the helmets rim.
4. Now proceed and replace the existing collar with the new
SRC-System™ Acoustic Collar. As you secure the SRC-System™
into place, be sure to have the speaker cords inside the helmet.
5. Slide and insert the pin located at the edge of the control panel into it’s
corresponding indentation on the helmet and close the snap button.
Pin
6. Insert the other pin on the opposite side of the Acoustic Collar into
place and close the second snap button.
7. Push and insert the Acoustic Collar starting from the center area to
the back of the helmet area. Do the same for the remaining parts
to secure the Acoustic Collar into place.
8. Make sure that both snap buttons remain fastened, and that the
microphone boom is located on the inner side of your helmet
(between the SRC-System™ and the inner padding of the helmet).
C3 helmet C2/Concept helm et
9. Make sure to close the cover of the USB connector, and then tuck
it away into the folds of the Acoustic Collar (into the back of the
Acoustic Collar on the control panel side).
5.2 POSITIONING THE SPEAKERS
For best audio results, make sure that both of your speakers are placed
as closely as possible just opposite your ears.
C2 & Concept helmets:
If you have purchased an SRC-System™ version
that ts C2 and Concept helmets, simply attach
the speakers opposite your ears onto the internal
lining by using the supplied Velcro pads.
C3 helmet:
Note: While you can attach the speakers in the same manner as explained
above (for C2 and concept helmets), we recommend that you use the
following procedure.
The following applies to both sides of the C3 Acoustic Collar:
1. Release the snap buttons on both sides of the Acoustic Collar (the
same buttons that you just fastened earlier).
QG SRC 207 - MAN00015.indd 262/1/11 11:38 AM
2. Open the two red buttons located at the bottom part of the
interior lining that cover the cheek pads (the
button on the back is held by a black ring).
Lift the lining slightly.
3. Attach the corresponding Velcro pad to the
identically shaped depression on the EPS (expanded polystyrene) and position the speaker
on the Velcro pad.
4. Close the two red buttons. Make sure the red button is still inside
its black holding ring.
5. Now, close the snap buttons of the Acoustic Collar on both sides
and make sure they are securely fastened.
5.3 POSITIONING THE MICROPHONE
To assure smooth closing (ip-down) of the helmet’s chin section, please
remove rst its triangular Anti-Noise Pad and proceed as follows:
1. Bend the exible microphone boom as shown in the image.
2. Press the microphone towards the center of your mouth with its
large surface facing you (not the narrow one).
3. Flip-down and close the chin section of your helmet. You may
need to use both of your hands to close the chin section properly.
4. While the chin section is closed and the visor is open, insert your hand
into the opening of the visor and push the microphone away, towards
the center of the chin section directly opposite of your mouth.

5.4 REMOVING THE SRCSYSTEM™ FROM YOUR HELMET
1. Open both snap buttons.
2. Lift and push the Acoustic Collar’s arch from the center.
3. Release the Acoustic Collar’s pins from their corresponding indentations inside the helmet’s rim.
5.5 WEARING AND REMOVING THE HELMET
The electronic components of SRC-System™ are safely embedded
inside the Acoustic Collar. To avoid discomfort while you put on your hel-
met or while removing it, we recommend that you proceed as follows:
1. Expand the helmet opening by rmly holding the chin straps and
pulling them forcefully apart.
2. While pulling the straps apart, slide the
helmet over your head, beginning from
the neck forward.
3. To remove the helmet, proceed along the
same lines by rst pulling the straps apart
and then pushing the entire helmet upwards.
NOTE: Your SRC‑System™ Acoustic Collar is designed for maximum
comfort. However, since it contains an entire electronic kit within, it will
somewhat bulge a bit. Therefore, putting your SRC equipped helmet on or
taking it o may feel dierent than what you are used to with a standard
Acoustic Collar. Remember: The more you pull the helmet straps apart
when putting on your helmet or taking it o, the smoother the process will
be, allowing the stiness of the Acoustic Collar to decrease.
5.6 CLEANING THE ACOUSTIC COLLAR
To clean the Acoustic Collar, rst close tightly the micro USB connec-
tor of the SRC-System™. Use only a slightly damp and lukewarm cloth.
Avoid soaking the Acoustic Collar with water or any other uid. Never
submerge it and refrain from letting water come in contact with the
speakers or the microphone. Allow the unit to dry at room temperature.

In this conguration Rider “B” is paired to Rider “A” and to Rider “C”.
IMPORTANT: Since Rider “B” uses two Bluetooth® connections during the
conference mode, Rider “B” will be disconnected from the mobile phone or GPS
device until the conference mode is terminated. Upon termination, Rider “B” will
automatically re-connect to his mobile phone or GPS. Rider “A” and “C” remain
connected to their mobile phones or GPS devices during the 3-way intercom call.

PAIRING OPTIONS BETWEEN THREE PARTICIPANTS
Pairing three SRC-System™ headsets is achieved by simply repeating
the procedure in the above section 9.4a with a third SRC-System™
headset (in a dierent CHANNEL).
1. Pair your SRC-System™ with the second SRC-System™ as
described in section 9.4a (Using CHANNEL “A”).
2. Pair your SRC-System™ with the third SRC-System™ as
described in section 9.4a (Using CHANNEL “B”)
Initiate Intercom calls
There are two ways to start an Intercom call with your paired headsets
while the headset is in Standby mode:
VOICE CONNECT:
Start talking loudly
Once you start talking loudly, an
Intercom call will be established
with both paired headsets,
CHANNEL “A” and CHANNEL “B”
(if both are available).
CHANNEL BUTTON CONNECT:
Single tap the CHANNEL “A” Button
to add or remove the CHANNEL “A”
headset from an Intercom call.
Single tap the CHANNEL “B” Button
to add or remove the CHANNEL “B”
headset from an intercom call.
9.5 RECEIVING INTERCOM CALLS
Once another paired headset tries calling you via intercom, the call
will begin almost instantly.
NOTE: The headsets preset priority modes have been set in a way to avoid incoming intercom calls from interrupting mobile phone calls and GPS instructions in progress. In such case the intercom caller will hear a busy signal and
you will hear two beeps, indicating that an intercom caller is trying to page
you. (see section 4.3 for details on audio priorities of paired devices).
9.6 INITIATE INTERCOM CALLS
There are two ways to start an Intercom call with headsets that are paired to
your SRC-System™ (make sure you are in Standby mode):
VOICE CONNECT:
Preferred for relatively brief conversations
as it takes the channel into standby mode
after 30 seconds of silence
Start talking loudly
Once you start talking loudly, an
Intercom call will be established with
both paired headsets, CHANNEL “A” and
CHANNEL “B” (if both are available).
The Intercom call will stay on until all
participants remain silent for 30 seconds.
(Applicable for 2-way communication)
CHANNEL BUTTON
CONNECT:
Preferred for extended conversations as it leaves the channel
open and active
Single tap the CHANNEL “A”
Button to add or remove the
CHANNEL “A” headset from an
Intercom call.
Single tap the CHANNEL “B”
Button to add or remove the
CHANNEL “B” headset from an
intercom call.

QG SRC 207 - MAN00015.indd 342/1/11 11:38 AM
NOTE: While the Intercom is on, the Redial and Voice Dial functions will be
disabled.
9.7 VOICE CONNECT FEATURE VOX
The SRC-System™ also oers VOX technology for safe and hands-
free operation of some key functions.
For incoming calls, just pronounce loudly any word (e.g. “hello”).
To reject an incoming call, you need only to remain silent for about
15 seconds.
To reject an intercom call remain silent for 30 seconds.
ENABLE/DISABLE VOX: While on standby press and hold the Vol-
ume Up and Volume Down Buttons simultaneously for three seconds
until you hear a beep. The default status is Voice Connect enabled.
NOTE: The Enable/Disable Voice Connect feature aects only the Intercom
functionalit y.
9.8 RESET PAIRING RESTORING THE ORIGINAL DEFAULT
CONFIGURATION
This section is only relevant once you have completed a pairing process
You can delete all of your paired devices at any time as follows:
1. With the SRC-System™ headset turned ON, press and hold the
Mobile Button for at least six seconds until the Red and Blue Lights
begin rapidly alternating.
2. Press and hold the Volume Up Button for three seconds.
3. The Red and Blue Lights will ash ve times simultaneously and
then the headset will turn o, conrming that Reset was successfully completed.
9.9 NOTEWORTHY ISSUES
a. Busy Status (When using a SRC-System™ headset)
When attempting an Intercom call with a headset that is already on
a Phone/ GPS/ Intercom call, you will hear two beeps indicating the
other headset is busy.
b. Automatic Reconnection of the Intercom
If the SRC-System™ and another paired headset go out of range and
disconnect from each other, the SRC-System™ will immediately try
to reconnect to the other headset.
You can manually reconnect the intercom call while the headset is
in Standby mode by pressing the CHANNEL “A” or the CHANNEL “B”
Button to connect to the respective lost connection.
c. Conference Mode Limitations
Whenever you enter the Intercom Conference mode among three
participants (including yourself), the participants who maintain
simultaneously two active connections will not be able to receive
mobile phone calls or GPS messages as long as the conference call is
in progress (see details in sections 9.4 b).
9.10 TROUBLESHOOTING THE INTERCOM
First, make sure your microphone is located properly in front of the
center of your mouth.
The SRC-System™ is designed for use in loud environments.
Therefore, you should test the Intercom functionality only in a noisy
environment, such as next to an idling motorcycle and not indoors.
Please also verify that the headsets were paired together properly by
following the instructions in the relevant Setup sections.

10. CLICK-TO-LINK
Click-to-Link is the spontaneous “social” nature of your SRC-System™.
This unique feature will enable you to instantly initiate one-to-one
intercom calls with other SRC-System™ users in the near vicinity without
going through a pairing process in advance. Think of it as a private biketo-bike channel that you can set up on-the-y with other SRC-System™
users that you spot next to a trac light or along the road.
The Click-to-Link feature can of course be disabled at any time, blocking
any attempt by other users to establish a spontaneous link.
USING CLICKTOLINK
Disable/Enable Click-to-Link: The feature can be turned on or o
via the Settings Customization Menu (see Section 4.2). By default,
this feature is DISABLED.
AUDIO SOURCES AND PRIORITIES
The dierent audio sources connected to the SRC-System™ are
prioritized as shown below, i.e. the higher priority source will always
override and interrupt the lower one.
For example, incoming mobile phone calls and GPS navigation instructions will interrupt ongoing Click-to-Link calls, while incoming Click-to-Link
calls will interrupt the audio from the built-in FM Radio etc.
Click-to-Link established calls and Intercom calls have the same priority:
If one is in use, the other is unable to interrupt. Therefore, a Click-to-Link
request cannot interrupt an Intercom call in progress, and vice-versa.
Higher Priority
Lower Priority
1. Mobile Phone audio or GPS instructions (device
specic)
2. Intercom / Click-to-Link (same priority level)
3. A2DP audio source
4. FM Radio (built-in)
5. Auxiliary Line-In Port (for corded connection
e.g. MP3 players).
IC (Intercom) Request Tone: If you are on a Click-to-Link call and
Rider A or Rider B try to connect to you for an IC Call, you will hear an
IC Request Tone while the other party will hear a rejection beep.
If your Click-to-Link connection is dropped for any reason and other
Click-to-Link-enabled units are nearby, new Click-to-Link connections
may link up with users other than your initial connection.
