What is Bluetooth? Safety Instructions
WARNING
CAUTION
Bluetooth is a wireless protocol utilizing short-range communications technology facilitating data transmissions over short distances from fixed and/or mobile devices, creating wireless personal area networks (PANs).
The intent behind the development of Bluetooth was the creation of a single digital wireless protocol, capable of connecting multiple devices and overcoming issues arising from synchronization of these devices. Bluetooth provides a way to connect and exchange information between devices such as mobile phones, telephones, laptops, personal computers, printers, GPS receivers, digital cameras, and video game consoles over a secure, globally unlicensed industrial, Scientific, and Medical (ISM) 2.4 GHz short-range radio frequency bandwidth.
Important information concerning the Whistler Bluetooth Headsets.
1). The paring between 2 headsets or headset and another device will be automatically interrupted if the reception distance is exceeded.
2). Please make sure that the paired devices will be in close proximity.
3). The Bluetooth function of other devices in the environment should be switched off so that they won’t interfere with the pairing process.
4). Please note that in some cases, the headsets cannot be paired with external devices because some manufacturers do not allow other Bluetooth devices than their own.

After 30 minutes have passed while out of range, you will have to switch your headset and the audio device off then on to connect them again. If this does not work, please pair both units again.
5). To disconnect both devices, switch off channel 1 of the headset and the audio device. If the headset has not been paired to any other device, they will connect automatically after switching on.
NOTE:
The volume adjustment and other functions may differ with some GPS systems.
Headset Distance
The BT2200/2300 is intended for communications between the driver and passenger. You will need one headset for each person. The BT3200/330 is intended for communications between the driver of one motorcycle to the driver of another. You will need one headset for each person.
Vox Function
1). The headsets are equipped with VOX function. Channel 2 will be muted if there is no active communication between headsets. Thus, no noise will be transferred between headsets during this time and all connected audio devices will be active.
2). The VOX function mutes automatically after 30 seconds if the headset does not detect any communication signals, perhaps because the signals are too low. 5 seconds before the intercom mutes, the headset paired as Master will get a signal. The Slave headset will provide a sound when deactivation of the VOX occurs.
3). To keep the VOX on after the signal (sound), the Master [voice] has to speak louder. It may be necessary to adjust the sensitivity of the microphone (page 24) to ensure continuous communications. After the VOX has turned off, it can be activated again by speaking with a loud voice into the microphone.
22 23
Intercom Function Intercom Function
Vox Function (continued)
4). When activating the VOX after is has turned off, a delay of 3 seconds is required before resuming conversation. The activation of the VOX will provide a sound in the headset.
5). Depending on the helmet type and motorcycle, ambient noises could activate the VOX at higher speeds (~60 MPH). In that case, please protect the microphone as much as possible from ambient noises and lower the microphone sensitivity. If you ride for long hours at high speeds, we recommend that you switch off channel 2 at one headset. If the channel is switched on again, the headsets are paired and the communications can resume.
Adjustment of microphone sensitivity
If the VOX does not function appropriately, the microphone sensitivity should be adjusted. The individual adjustment depends on the helmet, riding conditions, and the voice level.
1). Press [+] & [-] keys simultaneously for 6 seconds (from a power off status). Release the keys.
2) Adjustments
Low: 4x flashing within 2 seconds Middle: 2x flashing within 2 seconds High: 1 long flash for 2 seconds Repeat key presses until adjustment level desired.
