Operating Instructions
Adjusting Rotation Angle:
The SV950 racing wheel supports two rotation angles: 270 degrees for quick, arcade-style racing and 900 degrees for more realistic simulation. A switch located on the wheel base allows you to toggle between these two modes.
- To select 270° mode: Move the switch to the '270°' position.
- To select 900° mode: Move the switch to the '900°' position.
Sensitivity Adjustment:
The wheel features three levels of sensitivity. Refer to your game's control settings for optimal in-game adjustment, or use the wheel's built-in sensitivity settings if available (consult the product's quick start guide for specific button combinations if not detailed here).
Using the Pedalboard:
The pedalboard includes an accelerator and a brake pedal. Ensure the pedalboard is placed on a stable surface, utilizing its anti-slip pads to prevent movement during intense gameplay.
Using Gear Shift Paddles:
The +/- gear shift paddles located behind the steering wheel allow for manual gear changes in compatible games. Press the right paddle for upshifts and the left paddle for downshifts.
