Information regarding use

Documentation
Before using this product, carefully read this documentation again, and keep it for future reference.

Securing the gaming area

  • Do not place any object in the gaming area which may disrupt the practice of the user, or which may provoke an inappropriate movement or an interruption by another person (coffee cup, telephone, keys, for example).
  • Do not cover the power cables with a carpet or rug, blanket or covering or any other item, and do not place any cables where people will be walking.

Risk of collision
When the racing wheel is powered on (plugged into a power outlet + USB port), the initialization of the force feedback causes the racing wheel to rotate, which may present a risk of collision when the spinner knob is mounted.
