Description of the audio kit
The audio system includes two ultra-flat
stereo speakers and two interchangeable
microphones, which are both supplied with
a bracket and wired connection.
Fixing the stereo speakers
The two stereo speakers have a Velcro/adhesive strip that aids their fixing into
your helmet.
Beware not to completely cover your ear with the speakers, you must always be
able to listen to the traffic sound and your indicators.
The microphone can be fixed onto the helmet in two ways:
Boom Microphone
Place the section with the Velcro/adhesive strip between the padding and the
rigid cover of the helmet, so that the microphone is correctly positioned in front of
your mouth and that the white symbol is facing your mouth. This type of micro-
phone is suited for Open Faced and Flip Front helmets.
Wired microphone
Using the Velcro/adhesive strip, place the microphone inside the helmet in front
of your mouth. This type of microphone is more suited for Full Faced helmets. The
mini connector on the microphone allows you choose the microphone that best
suits the helmet you are using.
Audio kit jack
The audio kit must then be connected to the central jack of the Midland BTNext
unit using the "L" shaped connector.
Description of the installation brackets
The Midland BTNext can be fixed onto the helmet in two different ways: By either
using the plate with bi-adhesive strip, or the clamp. These methods allow you to
safely "fix" the BTNext unit onto your helmet and to remove it at any time in order
to recharge or store it.
Plate with bi-adhesive strip
The fixing plate has a bi-adhesive strip on one of
its sides. To fix the plate in place, clean the appli-
cation area on the helmet surface, remove the bi-
adhesive film and
place the fixing plate on the helmet by keeping it
contact with the surface for a few seconds.
Screw Clamp
Using the Allen Key, loosen the two screws on the clamp and place the rear plate
between the helmet padding and the external rigid protection. Then, tighten the
two screws in order to firmly fix the clamp in place. Inside the clamp is included a
small plastic spacer that can be removed to give a tighter fit if required.
Fitting and removing your Midland BTNext
The BTNext can be easily fitted onto the helmet by sliding it downwards so that
it fits into the slot of the selected fixing device (plate with bi-adhesive strip or
clamp). BTNext is maintained in position thanks to the fixing clip located on the
upper section (A).
To detach the BTNext, simply press the fixing clip and push the unit upwards.
