INSTALLING THE RACING WHEEL ON ITS BASE

Align the connector positions using the arrows:

Base (1) connector: Arrow pointing upwards

Racing wheel (2) connector: Arrow pointing upwards

Once the connectors are correctly positioned, simply rotate the Thrustmaster Quick Release (12)

device’s ring counterclockwise, while holding the racing wheel (2) in position.

Then, tighten the ring as much as you can: to do so, hold the ring in position and rotate the racing

wheel clockwise.

Once you have installed the racing wheel, rotate it 180° (when facing the wheel, the Thrustmaster logo

should be upside down) to access the small attachment screw located on the ring of the Thrustmaster

Quick Release (12) device. Use a large Phillips screwdriver to tighten the small attachment screw (do

not use excessive force), turning it clockwise.

Do not use excessive force when tightening the small attachment screw

(using a Phillips screwdriver)!

Stop turning the screw as soon as you feel some resistance.

9/20

ADJUSTING THE PEDALS’ HEIGHT AND SPACING

Using a Phillips screwdriver (not included), remove the 2 attachment screws holding the pedal heads to

the pedal arms.

Next, adjust the pedal heads’ height and spacing to suit your preferred driving style:

- 6 different positions are available for the gas pedal.

- 6 different positions are available for the brake pedal.

Once you are happy with the height and spacing, replace and re-tighten the 2 attachment screws

holding the pedal heads to the pedal arms.

AUTOMATIC RACING WHEEL AND PEDAL SET CALIBRATION

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 console.

During this phase, the racing wheel will rotate quickly towards the left and the right, covering a 1080-

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.)

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

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

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

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.

INTERNAL TEMPERATURE SENSOR

The wheel’s cooling system is composed of a heat sink and a fan.

• A thermostat monitors the wheel’s internal temperature.

• When you are using the wheel in a game:

- The cooling fan starts up when the wheel has reached a certain temperature (after a few

minutes of gameplay, depending on the strength of the Force Feedback effects used).

- The power of the Force Feedback effects automatically decreases as soon as the wheel

reaches a much higher temperature level (to protect the motor). The power of these effects

automatically increases as soon as the temperature slightly decreases.

• When you’re done playing: due to the motor’s thermal inertia, the cooling fan continues to operate

until the temperature drops below the fan’s startup level. Your wheel has been designed in this way

in order to facilitate cooling, and to protect the motor (this may take from 5 to 45 minutes,

depending on the temperature reached while using the wheel in a game).

only party authorized to open and/or recondition any Thrustmaster product (with the exception of any reconditioning

procedures which Technical Support may request that the consumer carry out, by way of written instructions – for

example, due to the simplicity and the lack of confidentiality of the reconditioning process – and by providing the

consumer with the required spare part(s), where applicable).

Given its innovation cycles and in order to protect its know-how and trade secrets, Guillemot shall not provide, in

principle, any reconditioning notification or spare parts for any Thrustmaster product whose warranty period has

incidental damages resulting from the breach of any express or implied warranties. Some States/Provinces do not
