How do I clean my
headset?
Your headset produces significantly less power than a
typical mobile phone. It also only emits signals that are
in compliance with the international Bluetooth standard.
Therefore, you should not expect any interference with
standard consumer-grade electronics equipment.
When you pair your headset to your Bluetooth phone,
you are creating a private link between only these two
Bluetooth devices. The wireless Bluetooth technology used
in your headset is not easily monitored by third parties
because Bluetooth wireless signals are significantly lower
in radio frequency power than those produced by a typical
mobile phone.
Wipe it with a soft dry cloth.
