Programming function

You can now play GRAN TURISMO or any other racing games that use the default button configuration. For other games, you have 2 options to make the right button configuration:

You can either go to the Options/Controllers menu in the game and create your own configuration. The advantage is that you can save it for later gaming sessions.

IMPORTANT: The Universal Gaming Steering Wheel is identified as a “game controller” in the commands menu of the games. If you wish to modify the button configuration in the game, go to the “game controller” section, not to the “steering wheel” section. You can also use the programming function “on- the-go” on the UNIVERSAL RACING WHEEL. It enables you to create the configuration you want without going in the Options menu of the game, but that configuration will not be saved.

This wheel has a built-in program function: you can assign a new function to some buttons to make your own driving comfort and experience.

6 keys can be programmed:

• Left pedal
• Right pedal
• Left paddle shifter
• Right paddle shifter
• L3
• R3

Programming procedure

• Press simultaneously the OPTIONS and SHARE buttons for 3 seconds. The LED will be lit in green.
• Then press any of the 6 programmable keys (listed above) to set up a new function. The LED will flash green.
• Finally press the button that you would like to reassign to the programmable button. The LED turns off, the key is now programmed.
• Repeat the above steps to program other buttons if necessary.

Reset one programmed key

• Press simultaneously the OPTIONS and SHARE buttons for 3 seconds. The LED will be lit in green.
• Then press on the programmed key that you would like to reset. The LED will flash green.
• Press again on the same key. The LED turns off, the key is now reset to default.

Reset all the programmed keys

• Press simultaneously the OPTIONS and SHARE buttons for 3 seconds. The LED will be lit in green.
