Parrot MULTICOMM
™
Hands on the wheel
The Parrot MULTICOMM kit adapts a
vehicle’s existing steering wheel audio
controls to work with a Parrot Bluetooth
®
hands-free car kit. The components and
wiring are hidden from view, so original
equipment appearance is preserved.
Steering wheel controls will retain their
original control functions, and will also
control the Parrot car kit main functions
without interference. A specifi c MULTICOMM
application is available for both the Parrot
CK3000 EVOLUTION and Parrot CK3100.
OEM compatibility
Designed to work with OEM resistive-
ladder steering wheel controls, the Parrot
MULTICOMM is compatible with a number
of vehicle models. For the most up-to-date

About R-Ladder
technology
R-Ladder protocol is a resistive ladder
technology that was specifi cally designed
to work in the automotive environment. It
provides an interface for electronic controls
while providing a high level of immunity to
magnetic fi elds and other types of electronic
interference common to automotive
applications.
Complete control
The use of a Parrot MULTICOMM solution
with a Parrot hands-free car kit brings all
calling controls to the steering wheel to
enhance driver convenience and control. The
Parrot MULTICOMM is designed to integrate
perfectly with steering wheel audio controls.
If there aren’t enough control buttons, the
MULTICOMM will designate a combination of
buttons to compensate for it.
