INSTALLATION

MOUNTING MR HANDSFREE GENIUS

- Select the place where you want to install the Genius main unit. The place for the main unit has to be easily accessible for your hands, clearly visible for the phone's display and safe enough in case of accidents and for the operation of Airbags. Under no circumstances should the appliance prevent the driver from controlling or operating the car in any way.

- The mounting for the Genius main unit (this is also the phone holder) has to be done by using a mounting bracket. The Genius main unit has to be removed from the main unit holder. This holder is already screwed to the universal mounting bracket.

INSTALLATION

Mounting the Genius main unit holder

The Genius main unit can be mounted in two ways:

A. You can mount the universal mounting bracket with the supplied screws, or
B. Remove the universal mounting bracket from the main unit holder by unscrewing the 6 screws.

- Screw the main unit holder to the dashboard or a bracket that is designed for your type of car.

How to fix the universal mounting bracket?

In most cars, the universal mounting bracket is placed on the right side of the gear-control console. Make sure that the mounting bracket does not block any airbags!

1. Check for a location in your car (close to the gear-control console) where the mounting bracket fits and where it is comfortable for use.
2. Make sure that the location in your car where you want to install your mr Handsfree Genius is free from dust and dirt. Remove the cover of the adhesive tape on the mounting bracket.
3. Put the upper part of the mounting bracket, with the adhesive tape, over the edge of the console. Put the lower part of the mounting bracket, with the angle, under the edge of the console.
4. Press both parts of the mounting bracket together until the face of the upper part is in a horizontal position. Insert the screw in the appropriate hole. Tighten the screw. Place the enclosed cap over the nut.
5. You have now successfully installed the universal mounting bracket.

Connecting the electrical wires for power and mute function

A. When you want to use the cigarette plug with the curled cord, you have to insert this plug in the cigarette lighter of your car.
B. You can also change the curled cord of the cigarette plug into the straight cord. This way you can hide the cables easily and use the mute functions for your car radio. This mute function has to comply with the standard. • Unscrew the 4 screws on the main unit holder.
- Unplug the curled cord and plug the straight cord in the socket.

• Screw the cover plate back on the main unit holder.
• Connect the wires of the cord with the radio by using the supplied cable connectors.

Remark: We recommend to connect the + wire to the continuous power supply. This makes it able to use the car kit also when your engine is turned off. To prevent your car's battery from getting low, we recommend taking your phone out of the car kit when you leave the car.

• The wires are color coded. They are listed in Table 1 and each wire should be connected to the corresponding item listed in the column D.

Table 1.

A B
Red wire	The + voltage of the car's power supply
Black wire	The negative GND connection
Brown wire	Used for Car Radio muting (CRM) and is connected to Car Radio.

Warning: Connect only to a negative ground electrical system and a +12 Volts power system.

MICROPHONE CONNECTION

• For optimum performance, the microphone should be located at least 75 cm from the Genius main unit and 40-50 cm from the driver's mouth. Make sure that the holes of the microphone are directed towards the driver and not towards the Genius main unit.
• Place the microphone on its location using Velcro.
• Use the supplied clips to guide the microphone cord.
• Insert the microphone plug into the socket of the Genius main unit holder.
• By default, the button on the microphone is in OUT-position (unpressed position). Only for some telephones it is necessary to put the button in the ON-position.

ADJUSTMENT OF THE PHONE HOLDER

• Turn the big screw in the centre of the main unit holder to the left to make movements possible.
• Put the main unit holder in the preferred position.
• Fasten the big screw to the right to fix the main unit holder in the preferred position.

Warning: Do not move the main unit holder without unfastening the big screw. This will damage the fixation rubber inside!

CONNECTING A CONNECTOR TO THE GENIUS MAIN UNIT

• Take the Genius main unit of the Genius main unit holder

• Connect the Genius connector to the Genius main unit.
• Place the Genius main unit back on the main unit holder.

HOW TO USE THE UNIVERSAL HOLDER?

• Release the cramps of the Genius main unit by pushing the button between the cramps.
• Put your telephone between the cramps.
• Close the cramps in a way that they hold the telephone and it therefore cannot fall.
  • Take the telephone out of the holder without releasing the cramps by sliding the telephone to the top side.
  • To insert the telephone, you slide it from the top side between the cramps of the Genius.
• You only have to adjust the cramps to the size of your telephone once.

CONNECTING THE PHONE TO THE CONNECTOR CABLE

• Activate the power supply to the Genius by starting the engine and connecting the cigarette plug (if applicable).
- Connect the Genius connector to the mobile phone after the power supply is activated.
- Charging function is activated now (if applicable).

Important:

During installation always make sure that the power cord is inserted into the cigarette lighter and power provided before connecting your mobile phone. The connection of your mobile phone should ALWAYS be the LAST step of complete mr Handsfree installation.

The Genius main unit can be released from the holder. When the two buttons are pressed together, the main unit can be taken of the Genius main unit holder. This way you can remove all important electronics and avoid being robbed.

IMPORTANT!

• Always read the 'TROUBLE-SHOOTING' chapter carefully.
• The mr Handsfree 'Special Brand' mobile phone connector can be obtained by mail or directly from your local supplier.
• Due to the 'Special Brand' mobile phone connector which can be ordered separately for each mobile phone model (Nokia, Ericsson etc.), your mr Handsfree Genius is suitable for any type of mobile phone.

HOW TO SWITCH ON YOUR GENIUS WHILE USING THE CIGARETTE PLUG?
