To ensure proper installation and use of the Bluetooth Handsfree Car Kit, please read this manual thoroughly before installing or using the device. 4.1 Bluetooth Technology Bluetooth is an internationally standardized technology supporting short distance wireless communications. Any two Bluetooth-compatible equipments, such as mobile phone, PDA、PC, headset, mouse, keyboards, printer, etc. can wirelessly communicate with each other via Bluetooth connection. To ensure worldwide compatibility, Bluetooth operates on the globally available Industrial Scientific and Medical (ISM) frequency band. Within 2.4 GHz and 2.48 GHz, Bluetooth transmits data up to either 10 meters (CLASS II mode) or 100 meters (CLASS I mode) using 79 frequency hopping channels. Though line-of-sight is not required, Bluetooth connections could be subject to interferences from obstructions such as walls, human bodies, and other electronic devices. In addition, due to variations on product implementation, it is likely that Bluetooth equipments from different manufactures have interoperability issues. In that case, you may consult with manufactures to check product compatibility. Note that, there could be some restrictions imposing on using Bluetooth devices in some countries. Please check with your local authorities. 4.2 About the Mantis C1000/C1050 Bluetooth Handsfree Car Kit The Mantis C1000/C1050 Bluetooth Handsfree Car Kit is compatible with Bluetooth-enabled mobile phones that have a Bluetooth headset profile and a Bluetooth handsfree profile.
