ATTACHING THE RACING WHEEL

Attaching the racing wheel to a table or a desktop

Start by connecting on the underside of the wheel:

- the power adapter (21);

- the USB-C cable (17a) to the USB-C connector (22);

- the T3PM pedal set (24).

Make sure to follow the paths for the different cables, and attach the cables using the hook-and-loop

fastener cable holder (20).

1. Place the racing wheel on a table or any other horizontal, flat and stable surface.

2. Insert the fastening screw (14) in the attachment system (13), then tighten the device by turning

the screw counterclockwise, so that it feeds into the large threaded hole (18) located beneath the

racing wheel, until the wheel is perfectly stable.

ALWAYS NEVER

WARNING: Never tighten the screw alone without the attachment system in place!

(This could damage the racing wheel.)

Attaching the racing wheel to a racing cockpit (not included)

1. Place the base of the racing wheel on the cockpit’s shelf.

2. Screw two M6 screws (not included) into the cockpit’s shelf and into the two threaded holes on

the underside of the racing wheel (19).

Important

The length of the two M6 screws must not exceed the thickness of the shelf by

more than 0.47 inches/12 mm; longer screws could cause damage to internal

components located in the racing wheel’s base.

INSTALLATION

AUTOMATIC CALIBRATION OF THE WHEEL

The wheel automatically self-calibrates when you plug the racing wheel into an electrical outlet and

connect the racing wheel’s USB connector to the PlayStation5 console or PlayStation4 console.

During this phase, the racing wheel will rotate quickly towards the left and the right, covering a 900

degree angle, before stopping at the center.

WARNING:

Never touch the racing wheel during the self-calibration phase!

(This could result in improper calibration and/or personal injuries.)

AUTOMATIC CALIBRATION OF THE PEDAL SET

Never connect the pedal set to the racing wheel’s base (or disconnect it from the base) when it is

connected to the system or during gameplay (this could result in improper calibration).

Always connect the pedal set before connecting the racing wheel to the system.

Once the racing wheel’s calibration is complete and the game has been started, the pedals are

automatically calibrated after a few presses.

WARNING:

Never press the pedals during the racing wheel's

self-calibration phase or while a game is loading!

(This could result in improper calibration.)

If your racing wheel and/or pedal set do not function correctly, or if they seem to be

improperly calibrated:

Power off your console and completely disconnect the racing wheel. Then reconnect all cables

(including the power supply cable and the pedal set), and restart your console and your game.

11/32

INSTALLATION ON PLAYSTATION®4 CONSOLES OR PLAYSTATION®5 CONSOLES

1. Plug the power cable and power adapter into an electrical outlet.

2. Connect the USB-A cable (17b) to a USB-A port on the PS4™ console or the PS5™ console. Once

the console is powered on, your racing wheel will self-calibrate automatically.

3. Press the PS button (10) on the racing wheel, and sign in to your PlayStation™Network account so

that your racing wheel will be functional.

You are now ready to play!
