4.4.1 LED Indicator
When the headset is powering on, the red LED flashes rapidly
indicating the battery level.
4 flashes = High, 70 ~ 100%
3 flashes = Medium, 30 ~ 70%
2 flashes = Low, 0 ~ 30%
4.4.2 Voice Prompt Indicator
When you power on the headset, keep pressing the (+) Button
and the (-) Button simultaneously for about 3 seconds until you
hear three, high toned beeps. Then you will hear a voice prompt
indicating the battery level. However, if you release the buttons
as soon as the headset turns on, you will not hear a voice prompt
for the battery level indication.
4.5 Volume Adjustment
You can easily adjust the volume by tapping the (+) Button or the (-)
Button. You will hear a beep when the volume reaches the maximum
or minimum level. The volume is set and maintained independently at
different levels for each audio source even when you reboot the
headset. For example, once you set the volume for mobile phone
handsfree, it will not change even if you adjust the volume for your
Bluetooth MP3 music. However, if you adjust the volume during
stand-by mode, it will affect volume levels of every audio source.

5 PAIRING THE SC1 WITH BLUETOOTH
Before using the SC1 Bluetooth headset with any other Bluetooth devices
for the first time, you will need to pair them together. You can pair the
SC1 with Bluetooth mobile phones, Bluetooth stereo devices such as
MP3 players, or motorcycle specific Bluetooth GPS navigation, and with
other Sena Bluetooth headsets. The pairing operation is required only
once for each Bluetooth device. The headset remains paired with the
devices and automatically reconnects to them when they are within range.
You will hear a high toned single beep and a voice prompt whenever the
headset reconnects to the paired device:
“Phone connected” to a mobile phone, “Media connected” to
a Bluetooth stereo device.

5.2 Second Mobile Phone Pairing - Second
Mobile Phone, GPS, and SR10
Typical Bluetooth headsets can connect with only one Bluetooth
device, but a second mobile phone pairing allows the headset to
connect with another Bluetooth device such as a second mobile
phone, an MP3 Player, or the Sena SR10, the Bluetooth adapter.
1. To enter the voice configuration menu, press and hold the (+)
Button or the (-) Button for 10 seconds until you hear the

SC1
Note:
1. If you have two audio (A2DP) devices connected to your headset then
the audio from one device will interrupt the audio from the other device.
For example, if you are playing music from the primary mobile phone,
then it can be interrupted by playing music from the secondary mobile
phone and vice versa.
2. You have to use a motorcycle specific GPS, which transmits turn-byturn voice instructions to the headset by Bluetooth. Most automotive
GPS systems do not have this feature.
3. The Sena SR10 is a Bluetooth two-way radio adapter for group
communication, and uses Hands-Free Profile. The incoming audio from
the two-way radio via SR10 is heard in the background while having an
intercom conversation or a mobile phone call.
4. The GPS navigation or a radar detector could be connected to the SR10 by
wire. The GPS voice instruction or the radar detector alarm is also heard in
the background via SR10 while having an intercom conversation or a phone
call. Please refer to the SR10 User’s Guide for details.
5.3 Advanced Selective Pairing - A2DP
Stereo or Handsfree
When you are using a smartphone, sometimes you may need to
selectively use the SC1 for A2DP stereo music only or for mobile
phone handsfree only. These instructions are for advanced users
who want to pair the SC1 to their smartphones with only one
selective profile: A2DP for stereo music of HFP for phone calls.
If you have previously paired a mobile phone to the SC1, you must
clear the previous pairing list on both devices: the mobile phone and
the SC1. To clear the pairing list on the SC1, please do a factory
reset or following the pairing list clearing procedure described in
section 14.17, “Factory Reset” or 14.14, “Delete All Bluetooth Pairing
Information”. To clear the pairing list on the mobile phone, please
refer to the mobile phone manual. For most smartphones, delete the
SC1 from the list of Bluetooth devices in the settings menu.

incoming call from the second phone during the call of the first phone,

You can use a two-way radio and the SC1 Bluetooth intercom
simultaneously by using the Sena SR10, a Bluetooth Two-way Radio
Adapter (please refer to section 5.2, “Second Mobile Phone Pairing -
Second Mobile Phone, GPS, and SR10”). Incoming audio from the
two-way radio will not interrupt an intercom conversation but is heard

conversation with a passenger on the back seat and use a two-way
radio for group communication with other motorcycle riders.
