WARNINGS AND SAFETY
Read this User Manual carefully, as well as the simple rules listed below. Failure to comply with these rules may
lead to dangerous situations.
Caution: The product cannot be used in official or non-official competitions, motordromes, circuits, racing
tracks and the like.
Caution: Installation of the N-Com B601 system results in a weight increase of approximately 105g, which is
added to the weight of the helmet and of the other accessories.
Warning: The electronic components of the N-Com system mounted inside the helmet are not waterproof.
Consequently, make sure the inside of the helmet, including the comfort padding, does not get wet in order
to avoid damage to the system. If it does, remove the N-Com system and the helmet comfort padding and
let it air dry. Remove the battery from its housing and let it dry.
1.1
Road safety
Always obey all Traffic Regulations in force. While riding the motorcycle, your hands should always be engaged
in actually riding the vehicle. Any operation to the N-Com system must be carried out with the vehicle
stopped. Specifically:
Set your cell phone on automatic answer (see the cell phone instructions to do this).
If your cell phone is not equipped with this function, first stop your vehicle in a safe area, in compliance
with Traffic Regulations and then answer the call.
Do not make any calls while riding. Stop your vehicle in a safe place in compliance with Traffic
Regulations, and then make the call.
Adjust the volume so that it does not cause a disturbance or distraction while riding and at the same time
allows you to distinctively hear background noises.
Do not operate your cell phone or other devices connected to N-Com while riding your motorcycle.
In all cases, obey the Traffic Regulations and remember that riding the motorcycle has absolute priority
over any other manoeuvre.
1.2
Switching on the system in safe environments
When using the N-Com system, comply with all limitations and instructions related to the use of cell
phones.
Do not turn on your cell phone or the N-Com system whenever their use is forbidden or when the devices
can cause interference or dangerous situations.
Turn off while refuelling. Do not use the N-Com system in filling stations. Do not use the device near
combustible materials or chemical products.
Turn off in proximity to explosive materials.
1.3
Interferences
All phones and devices with wireless signal transmission are subject to interferences that may affect the
performance of the device connected to them. These interferences are not ascribable to a defect of the N-Com
system.
1.4
Appropriate use
Use the device only in the normal position, as described in the product documentation. Do not attempt to
disassemble, tamper with or modify any part of the N-Com system.
Caution: Adjust the volume of the N-Com system (where provided) and of the audio sources connected to it
before you use the system on the road.
Caution: Adjusting the volume to very high levels may cause damage to your hearing.
Caution: Adjust the volume of the N-Com system (where provided) and of the audio sources connected to it so
as to avoid audio reproduction at high volumes. Constant exposure to high audio volumes may damage
your hearing.
Caution: An incorrect installation of the system in the helmet may alter the aerodynamic and safety
characteristics of the helmet itself, thus creating dangerous conditions. Install the N-Com system according
