Multi-Pairing the stereo headset

The stereo headset can connect with a maximum of two devices simultaneously. One device is a
Bluetooth® cell phone supporting HFP prole, while the other device is a Bluetooth® audio device
supporting A2DP prole. If you want to multi-pair, perform the following:

4. Turn on the Bluetooth® transmitter, it will connect to the headset automatically.

Note: After a successful multi-pairing, the paired devices will remember each other. Unless pairing
information is deleted because of a new pairing, they will no longer need to pair next time. If the
pairing information is deleted, please connect the cell phone with the stereo headset rst and
then turn on the Bluetooth® transmitter at which time multi-pairing can be performed. For the cell
phones which support the HSP and A2DP at the same time, pairing with stereo headset may occur
simultaneously. In this situation, the Bluetooth® audio device transmitter may not connect to the
headset. 3.
