Setting Up Your Headset Charge the battery Before using your headset, charge the battery for at least 8 hours. Charging the battery completely (and keeping it charged) will help you get the longest possible talk and standby time out of the battery. Connect the adapter to the Power connector on the top of the headset, then plug it into any standard 120 V AC (regular indoor) AC outlet. Make sure that your headset is fully charged before you start using it. When your headset is charged, the red light is solid. When the battery needs to be recharged, you will hear warning beeps every 20 seconds and see the red light (depending on your headset status). Use ONLY the AC adapter supplied with the headset! Using any other adapter could damage your headset, create a fire hazard, or cause a risk of electric shock! Pair the headset to your Bluetooth phone Pairing is like “introducing” two Bluetooth devices and giving them permission to connect to each other. If you want to use the headset with more than one phone, you need to pair it with each phone separately. Once you pair a phone to the headset, the two devices can connect automatically whenever they can detect each other. Before you can use your headset, you must pair it with a Bluetooth-enabled device (such as Bluetooth mobile phone). 1: Make sure the headset is powered off and the power adapter is not connected (you can’t use the headset while it’s charging). 2: Press and hold MFB until the LED flashes alternating red and blue (approximately 6 seconds), then release. The headset is in pairing mode and should be visible to other Bluetooth devices. 3: Set your Bluetooth phone into discover mode. (Check the manual that came with your phone for instructions.) 4: When your phone asks if you want to pair with the headset, confirm this by pressing “yes” or “ok”. 5: When the phone asks for a passkey or PIN, enter 0000 (4 zeros). IMPORTANT! When the headset successfully pairs with a device, the red light flashes twice every 5 seconds. If pairing failed, the blue light flashes once every 5 seconds. Connecting to your phone Most phones connect to the headset as soon as you pair it; if yours won’t, turn the headset off and back on. If headset still won’t connect, check your phone’s owner’s manual for additional Bluetooth information. Once the headset is paired: ►► Whenever you turn the headset on, it will automatically try to connect to whatever device it was connected to last. ►► If the headset loses the connection (e.g., if your phone is out of range), it should reconnect automatically. To manually reconnect, press MFB. ►► If the headset goes more than 1 hour with no connection, it automatically turns off.

General Information • You cannot use the headset while it is recharging. • Bluetooth wireless devices have a maximum range of 30 feet (10 m); the actual range will vary depending on current conditions (obstacles, battery power, interference, etc.). • The headset can be connected only to devices that support the Bluetooth headset or hands-free profile. This product is not compatible with standard cordless phones. Battery life With average use, the battery should provide about 9 hours of talk time and 8 days of standby time. A battery that is new or left unused for long periods of time can have reduced capacity the first few times it is used. For maximum battery life, keep your battery charged. • When the battery only has enough charge for about 15 minutes of talk time, the headset triggers a low battery alert: you’ll hear a periodic beep, and the LED changes from blue to red. • When the battery no longer has enough charge to operate the headset, the headset will power off; you won’t be able to turn it back on until you connect the charger or charge the battery. Noise or Static on the Headset The most common cause of noise or static on any wireless device is interference. Bluetooth devices operate in the ISM band (2.402 GHz ~ 2.480 GHz); any equipment operating in this frequency range might interfere with the headset. Some common sources of interference in this range are • Equipment that uses microwaves, especially microwave ovens • Wireless LAN equipment or WiFi connections 13 • Other Bluetooth devices or computers • Certain cordless telephones • Certain medical equipment and appliances If you have problems with static during calls, look for one of these interference sources. Try moving away from the suspected source. If the noise continues, there may be interference on your phone itself, and any noise in the phone’s connection will come through on the headset, too. Transfer the call to your phone and see if the audio quality improves. If it doesn’t, check around for things that might interfere with your phone.
