WORKING WITH THE FM RADIO

Your headset is equipped with a high-quality FM Radio receiver. This 

section explains how to enjoy the functions of the FM Radio.
The Cardo Rider Q2 enables you to listen to FM Radio while you are not 

receiving audio from another audio source. 
While listening to the radio, you do not have to worry about missing any 

calls, as the headset automatically mutes the FM Radio and switches to 

Bluetooth®

 headset operation when an incoming call is received, or when 

you decide to initiate a call. When the conversation is over, the headset 

automatically tunes back in to the FM Radio.

Turning the FM Radio On

While no call is on the headset (either mobile phone call or Intercom call), 

press and hold the MC Button on your headset for three seconds to turn
