USER GUIDE
Moving Beyond the Sound Barrier
Thank you for purchasing the ClearSounds Quattro 4L Amplified Bluetooth Communication
System. You are either really smart for purchasing the Quattro 4L or someone really likes
you and bought this for you. Or maybe you are both smart AND lucky to have someone who
gave you the Quattro 4L. Either way, nicely done.
The Quattro 4L is an innovative Bluetooth Communication System. Bluetooth is a
technology that uses radio transmissions to exchange data between devices over short
distances. It offers an array of features that will connect you to your mobile phone so you
can actually hear the conversations clearly, connect you to your music & TV; bringing
the joy of entertainment back. It will allow you stress-free meetings & one-on-one
conversations by bringing sound directly to your ears, significantly reducing
background noise.
With all this awesomeness comes some new technology that may require a learning
curve. Have no fear; our remarkably patient & passionate team of Customer Solutions
Consultants are here to help. In addition, we have created a pictorial Quick Start Guide
to get you up & running quickly. And that’s not all! We have developed a series of
instructional videos for those of you who really don’t like manuals.

The following precautions are the kind of boring but important information you
should read to ensure maximum performance and safety when using the Quattro
4L. Although it may seem fairly obvious that standing outside in a lightning storm
wearing an electronic device is not wise, we do have to officially advise you that it’s
not a good idea to do that-- along with these other nuggets of wisdom.
Warnings
Warnings must be observed to prevent bodily injury.
WARNING: Use the equipment only in the described manner to avoid bodily injury or

each user of proper usage, adjust the volume to each user’s personal preference and
adjust the volume to low when not in use.
WARNING: Do not spill liquid on the Quattro 4L or clean it while it is plugged in to AC
power. This can cause a short circuit, a fire or electric shock.

voltage points can occur, resulting in fire, electric shock or parts damage.

Cautions
Cautions indicate practices that could harm the Quattro 4L or other objects.
CAUTION: Some electronic devices that are not properly shielded will generate
electromagnetic interference (EMI) that may cause buzzing or odd sounds in the
Quattro 4L (or any headset for that matter). Examples include PCs, automobiles and
large screen TVs.
CAUTION: Turn off the Quattro 4L in any facility where posted notices instruct
you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities might include equipment that is
sensitive to external radio frequency (RF) energy that can cause electromagnetic
interference (EMI).
CAUTION: While onboard aircraft, turn off the Quattro 4L in accordance with
airline regulations and crew instructions.
CAUTION: If you use any personal medical device, consult the manufacturer
of the device to determine if it is adequately shielded from RF energy. Your
physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.
CAUTION: Avoid dropping the Quattro 4L.

during storage.
