EN IMPORTANT NOTICE
Please comply with your local traffic laws when using this product and where required, you can detach one speaker. Safety must
always be your top priority. You are advised not to use this product under conditions which may put yourself or others at risk of
injury. Pull over to the road shoulder or a safe location to communicate when required. Adjust the volume prior to riding for each
available mode to your desired level bearing in mind that long exposure to loud sounds can cause hearing impairments. Users are
advised to test and acquaint themselves with the Raptor's Automatic Volume Control feature (only for mobile phone calls) which
automatically increases the volume when wind-noise is detected. The use of earplugs is highly recommended for riding speeds
in excess of 100kph (62mph) as wind-noise at high speeds is deafening. By opening and using this product, you explicitly accept the terms and
conditions for its use and should this product be given or loaned to another user, it is your responsibility to inform the user of the above terms and
conditions of use which shall also be applicable to him/her.

INTRODUCTION
The VERTIX™ Raptor series is a wireless 2.4GHz system designed for easy retrofit on helmets. It allows you to conveniently access audio
entertainment, navigation information and communications when wearing your helmet. The Raptor-i works with most mobile phones, GPS
navigation devices and music players equipped with Bluetooth® technology.
Your Raptor-i is designed with a high quality rubberized double injection molded outer membrane capable of withstanding weather conditions
you are accustomed to while riding or may encounter on longer journeys; such as heavy rain, hot and cold temperatures. The Raptor-i is
aerodynamically designed and when properly installed will minimize turbulence and drag at high speeds, reducing disturbances and discomfort to
the rider.
The Raptor-i comes with your choice of a boom or wired microphone headset with specially tuned speakers to deliver high quality audio for your
music and communications experience. With the Raptor-i's Cut-the-Noise™ Digital Signal Processing (DSP) and Automatic Volume Control (AVC)
technologies, you are assured of communications quality which allows you to be heard clearly by the other party. Your Raptor-i will work through
20dB NRR earplugs to ensure you can hear clearly while protecting your ears against very loud wind-noise levels at high speeds. As the wind-
noise level depends on the helmet design, type and brand, the maximum speed which you can comfortably communicate will vary. As there are 4
different independent volume settings for the Raptor-i, the volume settings will default to the 50% level everytime you Power ON the unit after a
FULL Power OFF.
The Raptor-i's controls are carefully researched, designed and tested for easy feel and operation with riding gloves. To further improve ease of use,
a handle mounted, ergonomically-designed remote control unit will soon be available to complement your Remote-Ready Raptor-i.

EN INSTALLATION
The Raptor-i can be installed on any helmet without affecting structure or finish. The EZ-Mount™ system provides for a simple and secure means
of mounting and removing your Raptor-i unit. You can also perform aerodynamic adjustments of the Raptor-i's attack angle to suit your riding
posture on the motorcycle you are riding.
**The Quick Start Guide will help you get started on using your Raptor-i in no time. Do also try to acquaint yourself with this user guide to explore
other functions which may be useful.
Adjusting Optimum Angle of Attack
Note: You can adjust the angle of attack for your Raptor-i with no limitation on your desired angle of tilt. What you need is to ensure the EZ-
Mount™ contact for your Raptor-i and helmet is maximized. You can do this by aligning the EZ-Mount™ on your helmet with your Raptor-i for
maximum contact with each other (75% or more would be good). To check, simply feel the force of trying to snap the Raptor-i off from your
helmet and if you cannot push if off easily (like the wind pushing against your Raptor-i from the front edge), you are good. The EZ-Mount™ has
been tested to securely hold your Raptor-i for speeds up to 210kph (130mph) when properly mounted.

BLUETOOTH® Pairing
The Raptor-i is compatible with Bluetooth® technology used for pairing mobile phones, music players and between Raptor-i headsets.
Pairing Mode
Make sure your Raptor-i is OFF.
Press and do not release the ON-OFF/INT button until you see both Blue and Red lights flashing alternately.
You should hear a "DU DU". Your Raptor-i is now in Pairing Mode.
Note that the unit will automatically exit the Pairing Mode in about 60 seconds if pairing is not completed or unsuccessful. Repeat again if this
happens.
Mobile Phone Pairing
With the Raptor-i in Pairing Mode, turn ON your mobile phone's Bluetooth® and search for devices. Please refer to your mobile phone's user
manual if necessary.
Your mobile phone should detect "VTX-RAPTOR i_vx.xx.x."
Select this and enter the code 0000 (zero zero zero zero).

Intercom Pairing
Switch OFF all Raptors-i near you if possible.
Bring the 2 sets you would like to begin pairing close to each other.
Put them into Pairing Mode. You will see Red and Blue flashing lights on BOTH sets.
Press the ON-OFF/INT button briefly on ONE of the Raptor-i to initiate pairing.
When both Raptor-i show only a Blue flashing light, the pairing is completed and INTERCOM is established between the 2 sets. Test by talking to
confirm.
If you want to include a 3rd set in the group, turn off ALL the sets first and repeat the intercom pairing process for the 1st set and the NEW (3rd)
set.
NOTE: Each Raptor-i unit can only pair with 2 other Raptor-i units. The last 2 sets to pair will have a higher priority and a single INT button press on
either of these 2 units will connect them together. The 3rd or last set to pair will require 2 INT presses to communicate with either of the 2 earlier
sets.
Music Player Pairing
Refer to Mobile Phone Pairing
GPS Sat-Nav Pairing
Models such as the Garmin® Zumo 500 and 600 series supports pairing with your mobile phone and offers an easy and convenient way for you
to enjoy both mobile phone and GPS Sat-Nav functions on your Raptor. Please see your GPS Sat-Nav user manual on setting up and if the phone
function is supported.
For GPS Sat-Nav devices without the integrated mobile phone feature, you will have to decide which one takes higher priority as Raptor-i can only
support ONE High Priority device, you may wish to note that most older or entry level GPS Sat-Nav devices does not support phone pairing.
