Note: in the event of malfunction during use due to electrostatic emission, please quit the game and unplug the unit from the computer. Resume normal game play by plugging the unit back in and restarting the game.

USB INSTALLATION

The USB connector allows you to hot-plug your wheel into your computer.

Start your computer up and plug the USB connector ⑥ into one of the USB ports located at the back of your computer. Windows 98/Me/2000/XP will then automatically detect the new peripheral device.

Note: if you are connecting a USB peripheral device for the first time, Windows may ask you for the Windows CD-ROM during installation in order to install the required system files.

• Under Windows 98: the Add New Hardware Wizard will find the appropriate drivers for you. Simply click on Next and then follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation.
• Under Windows Me/2000/XP: installation of the drivers is carried out automatically.

TIPS FOR USE

The RESET button enables you to recalibrate your wheel.

The radiofrequency's maximum range is 30 feet (9 meters). In order to optimize the quality of radio transmissions and enjoy the maximum range for your product, we recommend that you place your receptor as high up as possible. Example: place your receptor on top of your PC case, as opposed to on the floor.

Your Enzo Wireless wheel automatically switches to standby mode after 5 minutes of not being used. Press the RESET button to resume gameplay.

If you disconnect the analog pedals during a game, your Enzo Wireless wheel may start acting strangely or may not react at all. You should therefore proceed as follows:

1. Press START to pause your game.
2. Disconnect the analog pedals.
3. Press RESET.
4. Return to your game.

Make sure to set the channel selector switch on the wheel to the OFF position when the wheel is not in use. This will help to conserve power and extend battery life.

If your Enzo Wireless wheel starts acting strangely:

1. Switch off the wheel and then switch it back on again using the channel selector switch located on the underside of the wheel.
2. Press RESET Button simultaneously.

PLAYING WITH TWO ENZO WIRELESS WHEELS SIMULTANEOUSLY

Enzo Wireless whee allows up to 2 players to play at once, thanks to the channel selector switches ③ located on the side of the receiver and on the underside of the wheel. Channel A is the default channel, and must always be used by one of the two players. For multiplayer gaming, each player must use a different channel by configuring both his or her receiver and wheel to that channel.

Repeat steps above for the second wheel by setting the channel selector switches on the wheel and the RF base station to the B position.

Important:

• Up to two Enzo Wireless wheels may be used simultaneously. Please note that each wheel must be equipped with its own RF base station.
• This device is only guaranteed to be compatible with other Enzo Wireless wheels.

SELECTING "SEPARATE" (3-AXIS) OR "COMBINED" (2-AXIS) ACCELERATION/BRAKING MODE

By default, the Enzo Wireless 's accelerating and brake controls operate in "combined" 2-axis mode (red diode), i.e. with brake and gas pedals operating on the same axis. An increasing number of new generation racing games offer "separate" (3-axis) mode which can be activated in the game's controller options section. 3-axis mode considerably improves driving precision in races.

To activate this mode on your wireless wheel, you must download the patch named Wheelpatch.exe from the www.thrustmaster.com website (select Support then Download). After installing the patch on your PC, simply press the 9 + 10 button simultaneously on your wheel. The Mode LED will blink red. When Playing games that do not provide 3 axis-mode support, you must revert to the standard 2-axis mode (otherwise, your wheel may not function correctly when playing).
