PC MAPPING
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 system. During this phase, the racing wheel will rotate quickly towards the left and the right, covering a 900 degree angle, before stopping at the centre.
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 system and completely disconnect the racing wheel. Then reconnect all cables (including the power supply cable and the pedal set), and restart your system 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).
MODE BUTTON AND INDICATOR LIGHT (6)
MODE button for the pedal set
You can electronically swap the accelerator and clutch pedals.
To do so, simply press the MODE button (6) for 2 seconds.
The racing wheel's internal memory stores whether the pedals have been swapped around or not.

= Always connect the pedal set to the wheel before connecting the wheel to the PS3 ^™ or PS4 ^™ .
- Once the wheel has self-calibrated and the game has started, the pedals automatically calibrate themselves after being pressed a few times.
- Never press on the pedals when the wheel is self-calibrating or when your game is starting up, to avoid calibration problems.
- If the pedals are not functioning correctly or appear to be improperly calibrated, power off your system, completely disconnect your wheel, then reconnect all of the cables (including the power supply cable and the pedal set cable), power the system back on and restart your game.
ATTACHING THE PEDAL SET TO A COCKPIT
- Attach the pedal set using the small screw threads located on the underside of the pedal set.
- Screw two M6 screws (not included) into the cockpit's pedal support plate and into the two small screw threads located on the underside of the pedal set.
Important: The length of the two M6 screws must not exceed the thickness of the cockpit's pedal support plate plus an additional 10 mm, to avoid damaging the pedal set's internal components.
ADJUSTING THE PEDAL SET
Each of the three pedals includes:
- A metal head (8) with multiple perforations (nine for the accelerator – six for the brake – six for the clutch).
- A plastic head support (7) (placed between the head and the arm) with four perforations.
- A pedal arm (6) with two perforations.
ATTENTION: To avoid any calibration problems, be sure to always disconnect your wheel's USB cable from the PS3™ or PS4™ before making any adjustments to your pedal set.
Adjusting the HEIGHT of the accelerator pedal
- Using the included 2.5 mm Allen key (4), unscrew the two screws holding the metal head (8) and its support (7) in place.
- Select your preferred height position, then replace and re-tighten the screws so that the metal head (8) and its support (7) are held firmly in place.

Adjusting the brake pedal's RANGE of travel and STRENGTH of resistance
By slightly unscrewing the nut (5), you can further strengthen the resistance of the brake pedal by moving the conical stop (2) closer to the back of the pedal's arm (if necessary, use a 14 mm wrench or pliers to re-tighten the nut and maintain the selected position). The closer the conical stop is positioned to the back of the pedal's arm, the greater the strength of resistance will be.
natural_image
Mechanical assembly diagram showing a clamping tool with rotating shaft and directional arrows (no text or labels)Note: When the conical stop is very close to the back of the brake pedal's arm, you may experience difficulties in reaching the maximum calibration value. Should that be the case:
* Slowly, press very hard on the brake pedal so as to reach the maximum value (if necessary, stand very briefly on the pedal – just for a second), then release the pressure; or else
* Move the conical stop a bit farther away from the back of the brake pedal's arm.
