HEAR IT WHISPER
Your headset tells you about status changes in
English. For example:
“Power on”
“Pairing successful”
“Talk time (x) hours”
“Mute on”
“Lost connection”
“Recharge headset”
USE TWO PHONES
Multipoint technology lets you pair a second
phone and answer calls from either phone.

Power on your headset.
2
Press and hold the Call Control button until
the indicator light flashes red and white or

While the indicator light flashes red and
white, activate Bluetooth on your phone and set
it to search for new devices.

Once successfully paired, the indicator light
stops flashing and you hear “pairing successful.”
STREAM AUDIO
Streaming audio is controlled using your
iPhone, but when a call rings, the audio
automatically pauses to allow you to answer
or ignore the call. Once the call is ignored or
ends, the streaming audio is resumed.
DECIPHER THE LIGHTS
Your headset has an indicator light that
flashes in response to a change in status or
after a button press.
Some examples of what you will see are:
• Solid red until charging complete and then off
• Flashing red and white during pairing
• Triple red flash when <10 minutes of talk time
• Triple white flash at incoming call
SAVE POWER
If you leave your headset powered on but
out of range of your paired iPhone for more
than 90 minutes, your headset will conserve
its battery power by entering into a
DeepSleep
™
mode.
Once back in range with your iPhone, tap the
Call Control button to exit DeepSleep mode.
If your iPhone is also ringing, tap the Call
Control button again to answer your call.

and make a few calls. It takes two hours to
fully charge the headset; the indicator light
turns off once charging is complete.
ADJUST THE FIT
The universal-fit eartip has a thin loop that
bends to gently tuck into the contours of
either ear. To adjust the fit, you can rotate the
eartip on the headset or add the optional
clip-on earloop.
