Congratulations on your new EGO!

Whether you’re browsing through your contacts list, reading SMS messages or selecting music for playback – EGO FLASH is a 

practical all-rounder with a razor-sharp OLED display and intuitive controls. Its handy size and sleek design make it a must-have 

accessory for your car.

The installation of your EGO FLASH in your car requires specialist knowledge and skills. We recommend that the installation be 

carried out in a qualified professional workshop.

Before installation in your car, please make sure that your mobile phone is fully compatible with EGO FLASH. If you are uncertain, 

please consult your dealer or a professional workshop. Our service team will also be happy to help you with any information you 

may require. You can find further information on compatibility between EGO TALK and various mobile phones on our website.
