IMPORTANT!
This Bluetooth

®

Headset and the electronic device connected to the
Headset operate using radio signals, cellular and landline networks
as well as user- programmed functions, which cannot guarantee
connection under all conditions. Therefore you should never rely
solely upon any electronic device for essential communications (e.g.
medical emergencies). Remember, in order to make or receive calls,
the Headset and the electronic device connected to the Headset must
be switched on and in a service area with adequate cellular signal
strength. Emergency calls may not be possible on all cellular phone
networks or when certain network services and/or phone features are
in use. Check with your local service provider.

time could have reduced capacity the first few times it is used.
Do not expose the battery to extreme temperatures, never above
+60。(+140。F) or under -20。(-4。F). For maximum battery capacity,
use the battery in room temperature. If the battery is used in low
temperatures, the battery capacity will be reduced. The battery can
only be charged in temperatures between +10。(+50。F) and + 45。
(+113。F). For your safety, do not remove the battery incorperated in

Limited Warranty

Avoiding hearing damage Permanent hearing loss may occur if you

use your headset at a high volume. Set the volume to a safe level.
You can adapt over time to a higher volume of sound that may sound
normal but can be damaging to your hearing. If you experience ringing
in your ears or muffled speech, stop listening and have your hearing
checked. The louder the volume, the less time is required before your
hearing could be affected. Hearing experts suggest that to protect your
hearing:

�Limit the amount of time you use headset at high volume.
�Avoid turning up the volume to block out noisy surroundings.
�Turn the volume down if you can't hear people speaking near you.

For information about how to set a maximum volume limit on your
handset, please refer to the features guide for your handset.

Using headsets safely Use of headsets to listen to music while
operating a vehicle is not recommended and is illegal in some areas.
Be careful and attentive while driving. Stop using this device if you
find it disruptive or distracting while operating any type of vehicle or
performing any other activity that requires your full attention.
