USE & CARE

  • Please follow all operating guidelines and parameters of the audio source device with which you are using the speakers.
  • Keep the speakers clean and dry
  • Do not attempt to disassemble the speakers or alter and modify the wires.
  • Do not drop, knock, or shake the speakers.
  • Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to clean the speakers.

CAUTION
It is dangerous to ride a motorcycle or engage in sports activities while being unaware of your surroundings. Only use your XSound, 3 Helmet Speakers, at volume levels at which you can still remain alert of what’s around you. Please check your state and federal laws for using helmet audio while operating a motorized vehicle.
Do not operate your audio source device at high audio volumes when using XSound 3 Helmet Speakers. Hearing experts advise against continuous exposure to high volume levels. If you experience ringing in your ears, discontinue using the speakers.

USING XSOUND3

The XSound 3 is a precision-crafted audio product. Therefore, they need to be installed precisely in contact and centered on your ears for accurate sound projection. Any gaps and poor centering will result in poor audio quality and volume from wind and other ambient noises.

The XSound 3 was designed and tested for use with IASUS Stealth, Rekon, and Mobile Amplifiers, as well as smartphones, and digital media players equipped with a 3.5mm jack. As such, the left speaker cable is longer than the right. Each XSound 3 speaker is designated left “L” and right “R” on the lightweight CNC aluminum housing.

ASUS does not directly support using the XSound 3 with a non-IASUS Bluetooth motorcycle headset. Please use it at your own risk.

BEFORE INSTALLING XSOUND3
We strongly recommend testing your speakers outside of your helmet first before installing them by doing the following:

  • Connect the XSound 3 directly into your smartphone’s 3.5mm jack.
  • Hold the speakers in contact and centered on your ears while testing audio. Any gaps will compromise the sound.
  • Adjust the position of the speakers on your ears until the audio sounds the best. Remember their positions.

INSTALLING XSOUND3

l• Wipe away any dust or debris on the surface where the XSound 3 will be installed onto.
2• Peel apart the Velcro adhesives (B1/B2) to reveal the loop and hook halves. They arrive in the box stuck together.

5 • Place the XSound 3 (A) onto the velcro piece inside the helmet.
6• Repeat steps 1-5 for the other side.
7• Tuck the wires behind the helmet padding for a tidy installation.

8• Connect the XSound 3 to your audio source device. Use the 3.5mm Extension Cable (F) if necessary.

TESTING THE INSTALLATION

  • Ensure the XSound 3 helmet speakers are once again fully contacting your ears and centered on them after putting your helmet on. If they are not centered, reposition the XSound 3 inside your helmet.
  • If they do not make good contact, place a Foam Pad Spacer (C) in between the helmet and the XSound 3.
  • For an increase in comfort, try placing the Comfort Fit Covers (E) over the Foam Covers (D).

EAR TAB

You may sometimes find that after putting on your helmet, your ears may be folded against the speakers. This will prevent the XSound 3 from making full contact with them, resulting in poor audio quality and lower volume. To remedy this, IASUS has included the Ear Tab.
To use, insert the tab on either side of your helmet’s eye-port. Slide it between the XSound 3 and the folded ear until it is unfolded.

For easy transport, the Ear Tab can be conveniently secured to your keys with the included key chain fob.
