2. Important Warnings and Safety Information
2.1 Read the Important Information Guide
WARNING! Your headset includes an Important Information Guide. Do not attempt to assemble or use the BH870 Headset
BH870 Wireless Bluetooth® Headset User’s Guide 5
before you read this guide. If you did not receive the Important Information Guide, please contact Logitech before continuing.

2.2 Protecting your Hearing with SafeTone™

WARNING! Because a headset is held rmly against your ear, sudden, loud sounds pose a potential hearing risk. Furthermore,
SafeTone™ Has Two Components — PeakStop™ and Intellitone™
- PeakStop™ Acoustic-Shock Protection
The BH870 Headset automatically suppresses sudden loud sounds, thereby protecting your ears from acoustic shock.
- Intellitone™ Noise-Exposure Protection
BH870 Headset oers a choice of four protection levels (all of which include the standard PeakStop protection described above).
These features protect your hearing by preventing acoustic shock and limiting the maximum noise exposure from the headset during your workday.
The table below summarizes the protection levels available.
Protection Level Criteria for Selecting
Level 0 Basic protection against sound spikes [118 dB(A)]; auto volume disabled
Level 1* Less than 4 hours on telephone/day
Level 2* 4-8 hours on telephone/day
Level 3* More than 8 hours on telephone/day
Level 4 (TT4) Recommended Australian protection level (Telstra)
Table 1: Levels of IntelliTone hearing protection
To set the IntelliTone level, use the Jabra Control Center application on your PC. See the Jabra PC Suite online help for details. (See also 5. Installing and Running the Jabra PC Suite in this guide for more information about the PC software).
Important: Check your local laws or regulations to nd out whether a specic protection level is mandated in your area.
the more you use a headset each day, a lower maximum volume is highly recommended to protect you against possible hearing loss. The BH870 Headset provides eective measures to protect you against hearing-loss risks. Please read the section that follows to learn more.
* Compliant with Directive 2003/10/EC of the European Parliament and Council of 6 February 2003.
2.3 Care and Maintenance
Protect your headset and accessories as you would any other type of sensitive electronic equipment. If your BH870 Headset requires cleaning, consider the following advice:
- The headset, headband, neckband (an optional accessory), and ear hook can be wiped clean with a dry cloth if needed.
- The cords can be dry-dusted as required.
- The leatherette ear cushion(s) can be cleaned. When cleaning, remove them and wipe with a damp cloth.
- The earbud can be replaced if it becomes dirty or uncomfortable. Two extra, dierently shaped earbuds are included with your headset. Otherwise, you can order replacement earbuds from www.jabra.com at any time.
- Avoid getting moisture or liquids into any button ports, receptors, or other openings.
- Avoid exposing the product to rain.

4. System Setup and Connections
This section explains how to assemble your BH870 Headset and connect it to your other oce equipment.
4.1 Charging the Headset
To charge the headset, place it in the Travel Charger. Connect the mini-USB port on the Travel Charger to a power source, as illustrated below. The headset LED will change from red to yellow while charging. It will turn green when the headset is fully charged. If you are using the headset while it is charging, the LED can change to other colors and blink to indicate other events or changes. See 9.4 BH870 Headset Visual Indicators (LED) in this guide for more information.
BH870 Wireless Bluetooth® Headset User’s Guide 8
Note: The charge time from either a PC or car cigarette-lighter socket is much longer than the charge time from an AC power
outlet.
Figure 4: Charging the headset
4.2 Assembling the Headset
You can wear the BH870 headset in any of several wearing styles, including headband, ear hook, and neckband. The ear hook wearing­style attachment and headband are included. The neckband is available separately.
Figure 5: Assembling and wearing the BH870 Headset in various styles
Choose a style and assemble the headset so that it will t to your preferred ear. See 7.2 Assembling or Changing the Wearing Style for detailed instructions.
Important: Regardless of which wearing style you choose, adjust the headset so the microphone is positioned as close to your
mouth as possible. This will maximize the noise-cancelling eect of the microphone, allowing your voice to come through loud and clear.
BH870 Wireless Bluetooth® Headset User’s Guide 9
Tip: If you use the ear hook, slide the attachment up or down until the headset ts comfortably to your ear.
4 sec.
Remember that two dierent ear hooks are included. One is very exible and can be moulded to any angle for an
optimal t.
4.3 Pairing the Headset with Your Mobile Phone
To use Bluetooth, you must set up the wireless communication between the BH870 Headset and your mobile phone by pairing them. Pair the headset manually at any time using the procedure below.
1. If your headset is currently turned on, turn it o by pressing and holding its multifunction button for about 4 seconds — until its LED gives four quick ashes and then turns o.
2. Put your (powered-o ) headset in pairing mode by pressing and holding its multifunction button for about 4 seconds — until its LED lights a constant blue.
3. Make sure Bluetooth is active on your mobile phone and put your phone into Bluetooth pairing mode. The procedure for doing this varies by mobile phone manufacturer and model. See your mobile phone documentation for details.
BH870 Wireless Bluetooth® Headset User’s Guide 10
4. Your phone scans for nearby Bluetooth devices that are broadcasting themselves for pairing. Use your phone’s controls to identify and select the Jabra GO 6400 device. Your phone may also ask for the BH870 Headset’s pass code. The pass code is 0000 (four zeros).
Jabra GO
5. Your phone attempts to connect to the BH870 Headset, and then it shows results. If the attempt fails, please try again. If you are still having trouble, please check your mobile phone documentation, or contact Logitech Customer Support.
Note: All communication between the BH870 Headset and a mobile phone are encrypted so others cannot intercept your
calls. Establishing this encryption is an important part of the pairing process.
Because two devices are paired, it does not necessarily mean they are connected (which means that the link be­tween them is active). Typically, connection occurs automatically once your mobile phone is paired, but you might need to connect manually using the menu system on your mobile phone (as described in your phone’s documenta­tion).
4.4 USB Bluetooth Adapter Setup and Connection
To connect the USB Bluetooth Adapter and set it up for use with your computer and headset, do the following:
1. Plug the USB Bluetooth Adapter into a USB port on your PC. The USB Bluetooth Adapter installs automatically when you plug it in.
Note: Even though the basic installation is automatic, you need to have installed the Jabra PC Suite software before you can use the
adapter with most softphones — though, notably, it is not needed with Microsoft OC. Each softphone type needs a specic driver. The Jabra PC Suite software is also required for downloading new rmware to the adapter.
2. During the rst three seconds after you plug in the adapter, an LED on the USB Bluetooth Adapter indicates the current softphone mode. For more information, see 9.4 USB Bluetooth Adapter Visual Indicators.
The default softphone mode is Microsoft OC, which means it is optimized for Microsoft OC. You can toggle between Microsoft OC and standard softphone modes during these rst three seconds by tapping the adapter’s
multifunction button. For more information, see 9.5 USB Bluetooth Adapter Multifunction Button. Later, you can change the mode by unplugging the adapter and then plugging it in again.
3. After three seconds, the LED on the USB Bluetooth Adapter indicates the current status of the unit. Do one of the following, depending on the status indicated by the LED:
- Constant green light
The headset and USB Bluetooth Adapter are already paired and connected and the PC’s softphone is the current target. Go to step 3.
- Constant yellow light
The headset and USB Bluetooth Adapter are already paired and connected and the mobile phone is the current target. Go to step 3.
