HF 1.0
Setup Guide and Resources
HF1.0 is an affordable hands-free Bluetooth solution for those just getting comfortable on the road or who simply need the bare necessities. We designed the HF1.0 with a special multifunction button to reduce touching your headset as much as possible. This allows you to take calls, listen to music and receive nav input while keeping your focus on your bike and where it’s going. And because the HF1.0 goes in the inside of your helmet, it already fits within most helmets currently on the market.
Shop HF 1.0 Now- Step 1: Setting Up In Your Helmet
- Remove the side padding from the inside of your helmet (if it can be removed), and place the handsets at the height of your ears. The device is designed so that the main unit with the boom microphone is placed on the left side.

- The wire between handset and must be stored inside the helmet, beneath the padding. In order to fix the headphones in place, two velcro pads are provided (male and female) with an adhesive backing. When using the velcro, stick the male part of the pad onto the device and the female part onto the inside of the helmet.
- Depending on the internal configuration of your helmet, it may be necessary to use the entire velcro pad or only a portion of it. In some cases, it may only be necessary to stick the male part onto the device as the inside of your helmet may already have padding that can serve as velcro (female). If needed, comfort pads to place on the headphones are also provided, in order to improve comfort against your skin.

- Note: Don’t pull on the cable to disconnect it from the USB port.
- Note: As time goes by, batteries gradually lose their charge. This is why it’s important to charge the battery fully before using the device and allow the battery to use almost all of its charge in between charging cycles.
- Note: To ensure proper function, do not operate the Twiins HF3.0 device while charging.
- Step 2: Switch the product ON:
- Press and hold the button for two seconds, until the speakers produce an acoustic signal and the LED indicator begins to flash blue.
- Step 3: Switch the product OFF:
- Press and hold the control button for five seconds until the speakers produce an acoustic signal and the LED indicator begins flashing in red before the device powers off.
Helpful Hint #1: Activation will be easier if you wait to install the HF3.0 into your helmet after all other steps have been completed.
Helpful Hint #2: Intercom functionality can only be activated or deactivated by the HF3.0. When pairing with any other HF device, the HF3.0 becomes the controlling unit, while all other HF devices become the partnered unit. Partnered units cannot activate or deactivate intercom functionality.
Charging and Turning Your HF3.0 On and Off:
- Step 1: Setting Up In Your Helmet
-
- Remove the side padding from the inside of your helmet (if it can be removed), and place the handsets at the height of your ears. The device is designed so that the main unit with the boom microphone is placed on the left side.
- Step 2: Using The Velcro Pads
-
- The wire between handset and must be stored inside the helmet, beneath the padding. In order to fix the headphones in place, two velcro pads are provided (male and female) with an adhesive backing. When using the velcro, stick the male part of the pad onto the device and the female part onto the inside of the helmet.
-
- Depending on the internal configuration of your helmet, it may be necessary to use the entire velcro pad or only a portion of it. In some cases, it may only be necessary to stick the male part onto the device as the inside of your helmet may already have padding that can serve as velcro (female). If needed, comfort pads to place on the headphones are also provided, in order to improve comfort against your skin.
- Step 3: The Microphone
-
- Place the microphone on the front section of the helmet so it’s both close to and oriented towards your mouth.
- Step 1: Pairing Your HF3.0 To Your Phone
-
- While the device is switched off, hold the control button for six seconds until the LED indicator begins flashing in red and blue. Your phone will find the device under the name HANDSFREE 2.0.

- Select the HF3.0 device and, if necessary, enter the access code: 0000.
-
- Note: Pairing is a process that only needs to be completed once. When the Twiins HF3.0 is paired to a specific device, both devices will connect automatically when switched off and on.
-
- Note: Depending on your phone’s operating system software version, there is a possibility that during the phone’s bluetooth® device search you have to turn off your phone’s bluetooth® functionality and then turn it on again after two or three seconds, allowing the Twiins device to find it properly. This is normal and it should only happen during the first pairing with your phone.
