Troubleshooting

Suede grip feels slippery
Clean the suede with a slightly damp cloth and allow it to dry completely. Avoid using any conditioning products not specifically designed for suede.
Horn or other buttons (if applicable via boss) not functioning
Verify the wiring connections for the horn or any integrated buttons are correctly made to the vehicle's electrical system, following the boss adaptor's wiring diagram.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Installation requires a compatible steering wheel boss adaptor (e.g., Sparco, Momo, OMP) with a 70mm PCD (Pitch Circle Diameter) mounting pattern. Secure the boss adaptor to the vehicle's steering column, then attach the Sparco F-10C steering wheel to the boss adaptor using the provided 6-bolt pattern. Ensure all bolts are tightened securely according to the boss adaptor manufacturer's instructions.
Compatibility: This wheel features a standard 6-bolt mounting hole configuration with a 70mm PCD, making it compatible with most aftermarket steering wheel hubs designed for the automotive and racing industry. It is specifically recommended for use in single-seater and prototype race cars.
Care: To maintain the suede grip and carbon fiber finish, use a slightly damp cloth for cleaning. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials. Periodically check the mounting bolts for tightness. For stubborn dirt on the suede, a soft brush can be used gently.
