Rhombus S Extreme
Dear customer,
Thank you for placing your trust in us by purchasing this pro-
duct. Please read these instructions carefully and completely
before deciding whether you would like to do the installation
yourself or have it done by a specialist.
Legal note: Rhombus S Dark / Rhombus S Extreme / micro S Dark
All Kellermann Rhombus S Dark / Rhombus S Extreme /micro S Dark
are ECE-approved for motorcycles as documented by the approval
mark engraved into the housing. This means that you may use the
Kellermann products instead of the original tail/brake lights without
any entry in your vehicle documents or presentation to a vehicle
inspection organization. You do not need to carry any documenta-
tion with you. This applies to all motorcycles licensed under EU
law and the corresponding lights.
ATTENTION! The warranty will not apply if the Rhombus S Dark /
Rhombus S Extreme / micro S Dark has not been correctly installed
or connected to the electrical supply on your motorcycle. Do not carry
out the installation unless you are qualified to do so; otherwise, leave the
installation and connection work for your Rhombus S Dark / Rhombus S
Extreme / micro S Dark to a qualified repair shop. The warranty does not
apply to damage due to wrong connection or excess voltage (such as
due to a defective alternator regulator).
ATTENTION! Improper mechanical installation or orientation of your
Rhombus S Dark / Rhombus S Extreme / micro S Dark lights may
invalidate your motorcycle's roadworthiness and insurance protection,
or even lead to accidents. Before every usage of your vehicle, check
whether the indicators are correctly mounted and fully functional.
ATTENTION! Your Rhombus S Dark / Rhombus S Extreme / micro S
Dark lights may heat up during use. Contact with bare skin or
heat-sensitive objects may lead to damage or injury.
CLEANING ADVICE! Your new Kellermann products are premi-
um-quality products. In order to enjoy them long time and maintain
the warranty we recommend not to use any cleansers with alkaline/
acid and/or grinding substances or steel wool. We also advice not to
use steam cleaners.
INSTALLATION
ATTENTION! Make sure that your motorcycle is standing firmly
before you start work, as a fall may lead to damage to the motorcycle
or injury to you or others.
Dismantle the original indicators. Mount the Rhombus S Dark /
Rhombus S Extreme / micro S Dark in place of the original indica-
tors, or drill a 5 mm diameter hole and fasten the Rhombus S Dark /
Rhombus S Extreme / micro S Dark at 5 Nm with the nut supplied.
Use adapters, if necessary, available at www.kellermann-online.com.
Make sure that the area where the wires emerge is protected from
splash water. Mount the Rhombus S Dark / Rhombus S Extreme /
micro S Dark in such a way that the beams run horizontally in your
motorcycle's direction of travel.
Alignment is important to safety in traffic and essential to your
motorcycle's roadworthiness, as a motorcycle with incorrectly aligned
lights is easy to overlook on the road.
Make sure that you keep the following measures in selecting your
fastening point:
Position · In width:
For front indicators: minimum distance of 240 mm.
For rear indicators: minimum distance of 180 mm.
Minimum distance between the illuminating surface of the
indicators and the headlamp:
75 mm (Rhombus S Dark, micro S Dark) / 20 mm (Rhombus S Extreme)
In height:
350 mm – 1200 mm above the ground
In length:
The distance between the rear indicators and the rearmost
limit of vehicle´s over-all length shall not exceed 300 mm.
Geometric visibility:
Horizontal angle: 80° outwards, 20° inwards
Vertical angle: 15° above and below the horizontal.

Cut the wires of the original indicators between the indicator and
the connector. By doing this the wiring loom stays untouched.
Connect your Rhombus S Dark / Rhombus S Extreme / micro S Dark
as follows:
micro S Dark
Connect the grey wire on the left-hand (or right-hand) Rhombus S
Dark / Rhombus S Extreme / micro S Dark to the plus pole on the
left-hand (or right-hand) indicator.
Connect the black wire on the left-hand (or right-hand) Rhombus S
Dark / Rhombus S Extreme / micro S Dark to the minus pole on the
left-hand (or right-hand) indicator.
To connect the wires of the indicator to the wires of the original
connector there are crimp connectors and shrink tubings included in
the delivery. First push one of the shrink-on tubes over one of the
cables you want to connect and remove five millimeter of insulation
on the end of each cable. Then push both bare ends into a crimp
connector and crimp it with an appropriate tool. Then pull the shrink-
on tube over the connection and heat it up equally until it fits tight
over the complete length.
This type of connection is technically permanent. To create a non-per-
manent connection, we recommend Posilock wire connectors (not
included), which are available for purchase from our website at
kellermann-online.com.
Lay the cables in a way, that they are protected from splash water
and fasten them, e.g. by using zip ties. Now test the function of the
Rhombus S Dark / Rhombus S Extreme / micro S Dark.
This completes the installation.
The flashing frequency can change when converting the original
indicators. The installation of a load-independent flasher relay (e.g.
R2) or a multifunctional assistance system (e.g. CR4®) will solve the
problem. If the installation is not possible or not favored, then par-
allel connected power resistors (i.LOAD) will be an option. Only a few
vehicles need special solutions, which we offer as i.SED, i.BOS products.
ATTENTION! The power resistors will become very hot after long-
term usage of the indicator lights. Make sure that no components are
damaged by this heat.

ATTENTION! The application of the described measure may inter-
rupt correct functionality, in the case of a failure causing one of
the indicator lights to increase in flash frequency in order to alert
the driver of such a failure. Before each usage of the vehicle, check
the functionality of the indicator lights.
