1. WARNINGS AND SAFETY
Read this User Manual carefully, as well as the User Manuals for other N-Com kits that you will be using
with the N-Com M5. Read 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 M5 system results in a weight increase of approximately 110g, 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. Disconnect the battery connector and let it dry as well.
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 maneuver.
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 refueling. 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.
