Setup

Configure the system settings before riding the motorcycle,
with the motorcycle stationary and set to accessory mode.
Adjust the options to match your personal riding style, and to
make best use of any features or devices that you may be

using. If there are problems with any features in the radio, first
check the relevant settings.

Most settings are similar for all radios. However, some features
or selections may be unique or unavailable on some vehicles.
Some settings may also be specific for particular countries or
regions. See Specifications (Page 22) for more information
about the features available on your motorcycle and in your
region.

If audio accessories have been added to the motorcycle, see
the instruction sheets for proper configuration and operation
of those accessories.

Communications

The intercom allows the rider and passenger to talk with each
other through the headsets. The intercom can be operated by
pressing the PTT switch or by using voice operated
transmission (VOX). When voice input is picked up by the rider
or passenger microphone, the intercom is automatically
activated. This process is known as "breaking VOX".

The rider or passenger can initiate intercom communication.
When the intercom is active, tuner and media volume are
automatically reduced so the intercom can be heard through
the headsets.

For privacy, the intercom is only heard through the rider and
passenger headsets. It is not heard through the speakers.

Controls and Components 33

Microphone sensitivity and headset volume can be adjusted.
The microphone sensitivity (VOX) applies to both rider and
passenger microphones. The rider and passenger headset
volumes are adjusted independently.

NOTE

Some local governments prohibit or restrict the use of headset
(helmet-mounted) speakers. Check with local authorities and
obey all applicable laws and regulations.
