USING THE SMH5
Volume Adjustment
You can easily adjust the volume by rotating the Jog Dial. You will hear a beep when the volume reaches maximum or
minimum level. The volume is set and maintained separately at different levels for each function even when you turn off
and on the headset. For example, once you set the mobile phone conversation volume, it is not changed even if you raise
the volume when you hear Bluetooth MP3 music. So you can always maintain preferred optimum volume level for each
function.
Mobile Phone Call Making and Answering
1. When you have an incoming call, simply tap the Phone Button to answer the call.
2. You can also answer the incoming call by loudly speaking any word of your choice if the Voice Activated Phone
Answering Function of the SMH5 is enabled. (Refer to the next section for detail)
3. To reject a call, tap the Jog Dial while the phone is ringing.
4. To transfer a call between the mobile phone and the headset, tap the Jog Dial during the phone conversation. You
will hear a short/long beep when the call is transferred to the phone/headset.
5. There are several ways to make a phone call:
- Enter number on your mobile phone keypad and tap the Phone Button. The call is automatically transferred to the
headset.
- Tap the Phone Button in stand-by mode to activate the voice dialing of your mobile phone. For this, the voice dialing
feature must be available on the mobile phone. Refer to your mobile phone manual for further instructions.
- To redial the last number, double tap the Phone Button in stand-by mode.

Enabling/Disabling Voice Activated Phone Answering (Factory Default: Disabled)
If this feature is enabled, you can answer incoming calls by simply saying a word loudly enough. For example, when you
hear a series of beeps by an incoming call, you can answer the phone by saying “Hello” or any other word loudly. The
factory default setting is disabled. You can enable or disable this mode. If this mode is disabled, the only way to answer
an incoming call is to tap the Phone Button.
1. Press and hold the Phone Button for 8 seconds until the red LED is rapidly flashing. When you do this, after first 5
seconds you press the button, you will see the headset enters into the Mobile Phone Pairing sequence, but you have
to keep pressing the button for another 3 seconds until the red LED flashes rapidly.
2. To enable, tap the Phone Button, then the LED shows solid blue for 2 seconds and you will hear double beeps.
3. To disable, tap the Jog Dial, then the LED shows solid red for 2 seconds and you will hear a single beep.
Intercom Conversation

intercom with the First Intercom Friend, double tapping with the Second Intercom Friend, and triple tapping with
the Third Intercom Friend.
2. To terminate an intercom conversation, single tap the Jog Dial. Any intercom connection with any Intercom Friend will
be terminated by a single tapping.
3. When you have an incoming phone call during intercom conversation, you can choose whether to pick up the call or
not after you hear the ring tone.
4. When you have an incoming intercom call during a mobile phone conversation, you will hear high tone 4 beeps. You
have to hang up the mobile phone to make an intercom connection.
Enabling/Disabling Voice Activated Intercom (Factory Default: Disabled)
If this feature is enabled, you can initiate an intercom conversation with the last connected Intercom Friend by speaking
any word loudly enough.The most effortless way to trigger intercom VOX is to blow into the microphone as if blowing dust
off the microphone.If you start an intercom conversation by VOX,the intercom terminates automatically whenyou and your
Intercom Friend remain silent for 20 seconds. However, if you manually start an intercom conversation by tapping the Jog
Dial, you have to terminate the intercom conversation manually by tapping the Jog Dial again.

Tip:
The Jog Dial is for any kind of Intercom related function, and the Phone Button is for any functions of mobile phone. With
this reason, as far as intercom function is concerned, the Jog Dial is used for a positive manner of action such as
enabling, and the Phone Button is for a negative manner of action such as disabling. Vice versa for the mobile phone
functions.
Intercom Failure
When you try to start an intercom conversation with an Intercom Friend who is already having a 3-way conference
intercom with other persons or a mobile phone call, you will hear a low tone double beep signifying a busy signal. In this
case, you have to try again later.
Intercom Reconnection
If your Intercom Friend goes out of range while having an intercom conversation, you may hear static noise and
eventually the intercom will be disconnected. In this case, the SMH5 automatically tries to reconnect the intercom every 8
seconds and you will hear high tone double beeps until the intercom is reestablished. If you don’t want to make a
reconnection, tap the Jog Dial to stop the attempt.
Stereo Music
1. By Bluetooth Wireless Stereo
The Bluetooth audio device must be paired with the SMH5 by following the Bluetooth Audio Device Pairing
instructions described in the previous chapter. The SMH5 supports the Audio/Video Remote Control Profile (AVRCP),
so if your Bluetooth audio device also supports the AVRCP, you can use the SMH5 to remotely control music
playback. So, you may not only adjust the volume but also use the functions such as play, pause, next track and
previous track.
● To adjust the volume, rotate the Jog Dial.
● To play or pause music, press and hold the Jog Dial for 1 second until you hear a double beep.
● To track forward or track back, rotate while pressing the Jog Dial clockwise or counter clockwise.

Function Priority
The SMH5 operates in the following order of priority:
(highest) Mobile phone,
Intercom,
Stereo music by audio cable, and
(lowest) Bluetooth stereo music
A lower priority function is always interrupted by a higher priority function. For example, stereo music is interrupted by
intercom call, and intercom conversation is interrupted by incoming mobile phone call.
Tip: Stereo Music by Bluetooth or 3.5mm audio cable
Bluetooth music is available only when the MP3 jack port remains open. Please make sure the audio cable is unplugged
from the clamp unit to play music by Bluetooth
Tip: Stereo Music by Bluetooth or 3.5mm audio cable
Reset to Factory Default Settings
1. To restore the SMH5 to factory default settings, press and hold the Phone Button for 12 seconds until the LED shows
solid red and you hear double beeps.
6. Then within 5 seconds, press the Jog Dial to confirm reset. The headset will be restored to factory setting and
switched off automatically.
7. If you don’t press the Jog Dial within 5 seconds, the reset attempt is canceled and the headset returns to stand-by
mode.
Fault Reset
When the SMH5 is not working properly or is in faulty status with any reason, you may reset by pushing the pin-hole reset
button at the back of the headset main unit. Insert a paper clip into the reset pin-hole and press the reset button for a
second with light pressure. The SMH5 will be switched off and you have to turn on and try to use again. However, this will
