    Since the G4 can be paired with all models in the scala rider family, we recommend that you first pair it according to your preferred configuration and then change or modify as often as you wish later, when the need arises. For example: If you typically use the intercom to communicate with two friends who both use G4 units, then you should pair it as described below in section 9.10 b.
