About Bluetooth

Bluetooth is a wireless technology standard that uses a frequency of 2.4 GHz to connect to various devices over short distances. It can connect and exchange data with Bluetooth devices, such as mobile devices, computers, printers, personal digital assistants (PDAs), and other digital home appliances, without connecting via cables.
Bluetooth profiles
The Bluetooth profile sets the available features and communication requirements for Bluetooth devices. Below are the types of Bluetooth profiles for the headset.
•
Headset Profile (HSP): Allows basic communication between a headset and connected mobile device, including receiving/ending calls and adjusting volume.
•
Hands-Free Profile (HFP): Allows extra communication between a headset and connected mobile device, including last number redial, call waiting or voice dialing.
•
Advanced Audio Distribution Profile (A2DP): Allows music streaming from a connected Bluetooth device to a headset.
•
Audio/Video Remote Control Profile (AVRCP): Allows remote control of playback functions for a connected Bluetooth device from a headset.
Available functions may vary depending on the profile. For supported Bluetooth profiles, see “Specifications”.

Optimal usage conditions

To ensure you get the best performance from the headset:
•
Do not block or create a barrier between the devices. Human body can interfere with the Bluetooth signal.
•
Do not touch the transmitting/receiving part of the connected device.
•
When pairing the headset with other devices, place the devices close together. Depending on the user environment, noise problem or malfunction might occur.
•
Bluetooth uses the same frequency as low power devices, such as industrial, scientific, medical devices, electronic devices or wireless LANs. Move the headset away from these devices, as they may interfere with each other.
•
To improve range, use the headset in places without intervening obstacles. Obstacles such as walls, corners or furniture weaken the signal.
•
When calling through the headset, sound quality might drop, as the distance from the connected mobile device increases. If two devices are too far from each other, the connection is lost and the call is transferred to the mobile device.
•
Conversation might be interrupted when calling in a loud environment, such as outside or where there is a lot of background noise.
Some devices, especially those that are not tested or approved by Bluetooth SIG, may not be compatible with the headset.

Pairing and connecting the headset

When using a new mobile device, you need to pair it with the headset. Once pairing is complete, the headset attempts to reconnect each time you turn it on. For Pairing and while in use, the two devices must be placed close together.

Frequently asked questions

Question Answer
The headset does not fully charge.
I cannot use all the features described in the manual.
Will my headset work with laptops, PCs, and PDAs?
Why do I hear an echo while on a call?
Why do I hear static or interference while on a call?
Will my headset interfere with my car’s electronics, radio, or computer?
The headset and the charger may not have been connected properly. Separate the headset from the charger, reconnect, and charge the headset.
Available features may vary depending on the connected device. If your headset is connected to two devices at the same time, some features may be unavailable.
Your headset will work with devices that support your headset’s Bluetooth version and profiles.
Adjust the headset volume, or move to another area and try again.
Appliances such as cordless phones and wireless networking equipment may cause interference, which usually sounds like static. To reduce any interference, keep the headset away from other devices that use or produce radio waves.
Your headset uses significantly less power than a typical mobile phone. It also only emits signals that are in compliance with the international Bluetooth standard. You should not experience interference with standard consumer-grade electronics equipment.
Can other Bluetooth phone users hear my conversation?
How do I clean my headset?
When you pair your headset to your Bluetooth phone, you are creating a private link between only these two devices. The wireless Bluetooth technology used in your headset is not easily monitored by third parties because Bluetooth wireless signals use significantly lower radio frequency power than those produced by a typical mobile phone.
Wipe it with a soft dry cloth.
