Battery information
This headset has an internal, nonremovable, rechargeable battery. Do not
attempt to remove the battery as you may damage the headset. The

If a battery is being used for the first time or if the battery has not been
used for a prolonged period, it may be necessary to connect the charger,
then disconnect and reconnect it to begin charging the battery. If the
battery is completely discharged, it may take several minutes before the
charging indicator light is displayed.
Unplug the charger from the electrical plug and the device when not in
use. Do not leave a fully charged battery connected to a charger, since
overcharging may shorten its lifetime. If left unused, a fully charged
battery will lose its charge over time.
Always try to keep the battery between 15°C and 25°C (59°F and 77°F).
Extreme temperatures reduce the capacity and lifetime of the battery. A
device with a hot or cold battery may not work temporarily. Battery
performance is particularly limited in temperatures well below freezing.
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire as they may explode. Batteries may
also explode if damaged.
Never use any charger that is damaged.
Important: Battery talk and standby times are estimates only and depend
on network conditions, features used, battery age and condition,
temperatures to which battery is exposed, and many other factors. The
amount of time a device is used for calls will affect its standby time.
Likewise, the amount of time that the device is turned on and in the
standby mode will affect its talk time.

This product may contain small parts. Keep them out of the reach of small
children.
The ear loop of this device contains nickel titanium (NiTi) memory metal.
Bluetooth wireless technology
Bluetooth wireless technology allows you to connect compatible devices
without cables. The headset and the other device do not need to be in
line of sight, but the maximum distance between the devices should be
10 metres (33 feet). The closer the headset and the other device are to
each other, the better is the performance. The headset complies with the
Bluetooth Specification 2.0 + EDR that supports the Headset Profile 1.1
and Hands-Free Profile 1.5. Check with the manufacturers of other
devices to determine their compatibility with this device. Bluetooth is a
registered trademark of Bluetooth SIG, Inc.
Care and maintenance
Your device is a product of superior design and craftsmanship and
should be treated with care. The following suggestions will help you
protect your warranty coverage.
• Keep the device dry. Precipitation, humidity, and all types of liquids
or moisture can contain minerals that will corrode electronic
circuits. If your device does get wet, allow it to dry completely.
• Do not use or store the device in dusty, dirty areas. Its moving parts
and electronic components can be damaged.

English 17
• Do not store the device in hot areas. High temperatures can
shorten the life of electronic devices, damage batteries, and warp
or melt certain plastics.
• Do not store the device in cold areas. When the device returns to
its normal temperature, moisture can form inside the device and
damage electronic circuit boards.
• Do not attempt to open the device.
• Do not drop, knock, or shake the device. Rough handling can break
internal circuit boards and fine mechanics.
• Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong
detergents to clean the device.
• Do not paint the device. Paint can clog the moving parts and
prevent proper operation.
These suggestions apply equally to your device, charger, or any
enhancement. If any device is not working properly, take it to the nearest
authorised service facility for service.
