Thank you for purchasing the pulse Bluetooth™ Stereo Headset from a.m.p - Antec Mobile

Products. Pulse is an audio receiver/headset combination that supports both wireless music

streaming and mobile phone functions. By featuring apt-x, loss-less, digital audio technology and

SBC audio software codecs, pulse provides an unparalleled listening experience and is the perfect

addition to your home entertainment system. At the same time, its lightweight and foldable design

makes pulse the ideal travel companion.

a.m.p - Antec Mobile Products strongly recommends that you use good judgment and moderation

when using the pulse. If you don’t have good judgment, please read and follow the instructions and

warnings contained in this product manual to ensure a safe and enjoyable pulse experience.

Listening to music at high volumes for extended periods of time might be fun, but it can lead to

permanent hearing loss, which is not fun. Sounds above 85 decibels (dBs) can cause permanent

hearing damage while the pain threshold for noise is 125 dB. This means you can damage your

hearing even though you aren’t feeling any discomfort. Also, the damage caused from loud noises

increases over time, so the louder the sounds, the less time it takes to damage your hearing. To

avoid sudden shocks to your ears, each time you use the pulse, begin on low volume settings

then gradually increase the volume to a comfortable level. Antec Mobile Products understands

that good music often sounds better loud, but please take precautions to ensure that your hearing

survives for many years to come.

Safety Information

Noise-Induced Hearing Loss

Do not use the pulse headphones while operating machinery or motor vehicles as the pulse will

impair your ability to hear important safety signals and therefore present a danger to you and

others. We also ask that you please be considerate to others when listening to your music in

places like libraries or on public transit. Finally, even if you are an Electrical Engineer, please do not

attempt to repair, disassemble or modify the pulse in any way.

Getting Started

Pulse contains a high-capacity Lithium battery that

should be fully-charged before using. Please use the

included micro USB cable to charge the pulse by

connecting the smaller end of the cable to the pulse and

then connecting the larger end to the USB slot of any

PC, Mac or charging station. The LED status indicator

will be RED while charging. When fully charged, the

LED will goes out and then the pulse will automatically

turn off when fully charged.

Note: You can still use the pulse while charging.

Before using the pulse, please note the left (L) and

right (R) ear cushions and adjust the pulse’s headband

so that it fits securely atop your head and the ear

cushions comfortably cover your ears. To switch on the

pulse, press and hold the MFB button for about three

seconds, the pulse will emit a rising tone and the Blue

LED light will flash three times. To power off the pulse,

press the MFB button again. The pulse will emit a

falling tone and the Red LED will flash three times. The

pulse will auto shut off if it remains on and unpaired for

Five minutes.

Charging the Battery

Turning the pulse On and Off

You can wirelessly connect the pulse with any

Bluetooth-enabled device such as a mobile phone,

PC, laptop or tablet, but first you must “pair” the pulse

with your Bluetooth-enabled device by following these

steps. First, turn on the pulse and then press and hold

the MFB button for 6-8 seconds until the STATUS

light alternates RED and BLUE. Congratulations,

you are now in pair mode. Next, using your audio

devices controls, find the Bluetooth settings and

select the “pulse” headset connection. Depending on

your device, you might have to enter a paring code.

If so, use “0000”. When successfully connected, the

pulse’s LED light will flash BLUE. The pulse’s range

is approximately 10 meters (33 feet) but range and

functions vary according to device, so be sure to be

near the Bluetooth-enabled device when paring and

check your mobile or audio device’s instruction manual

for more details.

Note: You don’t need to pair the devices each time you

use the pulse. After pairing, the pulse will remember

the most recently paired device and will always

connect automatically until you un-pair the connection

or pair the pulse with a different device.

Pairing the pulse with a Bluetooth-enabled

Device for the First Time

There are two ways to un-pair, or disconnect the pulse from the Bluetooth device. First, you can

disconnect the pulse from paired mode by simply disabling the connection using the Bluetooth

settings in your audio device. Or you can cancel the connection by pressing and holding the pulse’s

Volume up & Backward button for 3 seconds.

If you don’t have a Bluetooth-enabled device or simply do not want to use the pulse in pair mode,

you can still connect the pulse to your audio device using cables-just as you would with normal

headphones. To do so, simply connect the pulse to your device using the included 3.5mms stereo

input cable. Actually, this is method recommended, as it will save battery charge and still provide

the same listening experience. We highly recommend you can use this mode when traveling on the

aircraft. Absolutely, we have already prepared the Airline adapter for you in the box.

With its integrated microphone, the pulse also supports full mobile phone functions. By using the

controls you can pick up and place calls and switch between mobile phone and audio functions.

To toggle between audio headset and cellular phone settings, simply press and hold the PHONE

button on the side of the pulse. Then use your mobile phone as you normally would to make your

call. When receiving an incoming call, the pulse will emit the incoming tone to alert you. Pick up the

call by pressing the PHONE button once. If you don’t want to be bothered, just press and hold the

PHONE button to reject the call. During the call you can use the Vol+ or Vol- to adjust volume or

mute the caller. If your mobile device has a hands free function or supports voice dial then you can

use the pulse to perform those actions.

To Un-pair the pulse

“Passive Mode”-Connecting using the 3.5mm or USB cable

Using the pulse mobile phone functions:

1. Keep the pulse dry and do not store in a damp place or submerge it in water.

2. Do not expose the pulse to extreme temperatures or direct sunlight for extended periods of time.

3. High temperatures can shorten the life of the pulse, damage the battery and potentially distort

certain parts of the pulse.

4. Do not attempt to repair, disassemble or modify the pulse in any way.

5. Do not drop or expose the pulse intense shock.

6. Do not use chemicals or harsh detergents to clean the product.
