The system can be expanded by means of a USB Multimedia Wire accessory (sold
separately), which is used for cable connection to multimedia sources.
B1 can be managed, updated and customised using the “N-Com Wizard”
programme, which can be downloaded from the “Download” section of the
Internet site www.n-com.it
B1
15
5.1. Basic functions
All N-Com system functions are available through the operation of three pushbuttons: “”,
“on” and “ ”. Every time the system is given a command, a special acoustic signal can be
heard, which varies depending on the function being requested. This way, all the functions
can be used while wearing the helmet.
The type of command given to the system depends on how long the pushbutton is pressed.
System ON
Press “on” and keep it pressed for about 2 seconds, until the
LEDs turn on and you hear a beep in the headset.
System OFF
Press “on” and keep it pressed for about 4 seconds, until the
LEDs turn off and you hear a beep in the headset.
Increase Volume
Briefly press “” to increase the volume. A double tone signals
the highest volume level.
Decrease Volume
Briefly press “” to decrease the volume. A double tone signals
the lowest volume level.
5.2. N-Com Wizard
“N-Com Wizard” is the PC application that can be used to manage and
configure the B1 system.
The programme can be downloaded from the Internet site www.n-com.it, in the
“Download” section. In order to use it, a helmet equipped with B1 must be connected to
the PC, using the USB cable supplied with the system.
N-Com Wizard allows you to customize your B1, specifically:
Setting the system audio levels
Update the device firmware
The programme includes an on-line guide that explains how it works (after installing it on
your PC, press F1 to display this guide).
6. PAIRING UP BLUETOOTH DEVICES
In order for the B1 system to be connected to another Bluetooth device, the latter needs
to be first paired up with the N-Com system.
The pairing up procedure is the same for all Bluetooth devices: mobile phones, MP3
Bluetooth players, satellite navigators, etc.
1. Make sure the B1 is turned off;
2. Press “on” and keep it pressed (for more than 6 seconds), until the LEDs start to
flash quickly and you hear a sharp beep in the headset, indicating the “Pair-up
mode”;
3. On the Bluetooth device, turn on the search for Bluetooth devices (refer to the
instructions manual of your device for the proper pairing up procedure, as it
varies depending on the brand and model of the device);
4. After a few seconds, the device will display the name “N-Com B1 v.X.XX”,
followed by the manufacturer’s identification data;
5. Select the N-Com device. If a password is requested, enter 0000 (four zeros);
6. B1 will confirm the pairing up by means of a tone in the headset, and the LEDs
will stop flashing;
7. Turn off and on both the device and the B1 to store the pairing up data.
Note: The affiliation is stored in the helmet and in the cell phone and it is not lost when
the two devices are turned off. As a result it needs to be carried out only once.
16
Note: If a Bluetooth device (mobile phone or GPS) equipped with music player with
Bluetooth A2DP player has already been paired up, the pairing up DOES NOT have to
be repeated as the A2DP protocol has already been stored in the B1.
Once the Bluetooth device has been paired up, connection is automatic when the system is
turned on.
6.1. Affiliation reset function
You can remove all affiliated devices from the system memory. This operation is not
reversible; right after resetting, you will have to repeat the affiliation procedure for the cell
phone (or for other compatible Bluetooth devices).
To erase all devices previously affiliated, proceed as follows:
Press “on” and keep it pressed (for more than 4 seconds), until the LEDs start to flash
quickly and you hear a sharp beep in the headset, indicating the “Pair-up mode”;
Press “” and “” at the same time for 4 seconds, and release them when you hear a
beep. The N-Com will emit a special acoustic signal to confirm and will then turn itself
off.
This function can also be turned on through PC using the “N-Com Wizard”
programme.

8. GPS SATELLITE NAVIGATOR FUNCTIONS
B1 is compatible with the most common satellite navigators for motorcycles.
By connecting the N-Com system to the GPS, all instructions will be transferred to the
helmet.
Every time the navigator communicates instructions, the intercom via Bluetooth with the
Pillion Passenger is cut off and automatically restored at the end of the communication.
B1
17
Note: If the navigator is pre-set for connection to a Bluetooth mobile phone, you will be
able to receive the phone call audio directly in the helmet through the GPS. In this
case, you can answer the call directly from the navigator.
GPS Conference Call Function
The Conference function allows you to keep the “Rider-Pillion Passenger” intercom open
even while the satellite navigator is giving instructions, thus preventing the intercom mode
to be turned off every time the navigator gives instructions. However, if you wish to

This warranty does not include those parts subject to wear and tear such as, for example, the
rechargeable battery and the cables used for connection between the various N-Com systems or
between the N-Com systems and other devices.
Since Nolangroup does not supply the system on which the cell phones work, it shall not be
responsible for the operation, availability, coverage, services or range pertaining to the aforementioned
system.
Whenever the product is used in conjunction with accessories or equipment not supplied by
Nolangroup, Nolangroup shall not guarantee proper operation of the product/device combination, nor
will it accept requests for repairs or replacements under warranty in case the product is used in such a
way.
Nolangroup shall not be responsible in case the product presents limited capabilities due to the
operating mode of cell phones or of other accessories or equipment not supplied by Nolangroup.
Tampering with the internal electronic card or with other parts of the N-Com system shall invalidate the
warranty.
Moreover, the defects covered by this warranty do not include all those specific and subjective
situations that may come up during the active use of the helmet such as, for example, comfort
problems while riding or aerodynamic noises.
Nolangroup shall not be held responsible in any case for incidental or consequential damages (including,
without any limitation whatsoever, damages to one or more persons) resulting from non-fulfillment of
the obligations arising from this warranty as it pertains to Nolangroup products.
14.3. Validity of this limited warranty
This warranty is valid only if the enclosed warranty form is duly and completely filled out with the
following information:
Product identification code
22
Name and stamp of the authorized dealer.
Product purchase date.
Buyer’s name and address.
Nolangroup reserves itself the right to not carry out repairs under warranty if the aforementioned
information is removed or modified after the original purchase of the product from the dealer.
14.4. Procedure for the forwarding of claims
To forward a claim covered by this warranty, the buyer has to directly notify the dealer where the
helmet was purchased with regards to the defect, presenting at the same time the defective product, a
copy of the sales receipt and the Warranty registration form, duly filled out as instructed above.
PRIOR TO CONTACTING THE DEALER, WE RECOMMEND THAT YOU READ CAREFULLY THE USER
MANUAL ENCLOSED WITH THE PRODUCT.
AFTER 2 (TWO) YEARS FROM THE DATE OF PURCHASE, THIS LIMITED WARRANTY IS VOID FOR ALL
EFFECTS AND PURPOSES.
Repairs or maintenance under warranty do not extend the period of the warranty itself. Therefore, in
case the product or one of its components is replaced, this does not initiate a new warranty period, as
the purchase date of the original product shall be taken into account for warranty purposes.
Only for repairs or replacement of electronic components, in the event that Nolangroup proceeds to
repairing or replacing the product, said product shall enjoy a warranty period equal to the residual
portion of the original warranty or ninety (90) days from the repair date (the longer period being
considered).
The repair or replacement can be carried out even with regenerated components with equivalent
functions.
The replaced parts or components shall become property of Nolangroup.
THIS WARRANTY VOIDS AND REPLACES ANY OTHER WRITTEN OR VERBAL WARRANTIES PROVIDED
FOR BY THE LAW THAT CAN BE DEROGATED AT THE PARTIES’ WILL; SPECIFICALLY, NOLANGROUP
DOES NOT GRANT SPECIFIC WARRANTS OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
PURPOSE. IN NO CASE SHALL NOLANGROUP BE LIABLE FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL
DAMAGES INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOST PROFITS OR COMMERCIAL DAMAGES, TO THE FULL
EXTENT THOSE DAMAGES CAN BE DISCLAIMED BY THE LAW.
NOLANGROUP RESERVES ITSELF THE RIGHT TO MODIFY, AT ANY TIME AND WITHOUT ADVANCE
NOTICE, THE PRODUCT CHARACTERISTICS, FUNCTIONS, COMPATIBILITY AND SOFTWARE.
Some Countries do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, or the
limitation of the duration of implied warranties; as a result of this, the previous limitations and
exclusions may not be applicable to you.
This warranty does not have any effect on the customer’s legal rights under the national jurisdiction in
force or on the consumer’s rights towards the dealer sanctioned by the purchase/sale contract.
This warranty is valid throughout the European territory, and it represents the only express warranty
provided by Nolangroup in relation to the sale of its own products. This warranty does not affect the
rights to which the buyer is entitled and which are expressly provided for by Directive 1999/44/CE.
This warranty does not affect the consumer’s rights provided for by the law, and specifically by the
provisions of Legislative Decree 2 February 2002 n. 24.
