The Callpod®Dragon is a premium Bluetooth®Class-1 headset that allows you to
make and receive calls from your Bluetooth-enabled phone or computer.
The Dragon utilizes a proprietary noise mitigation technology called dual-mic
noise suppression™which was designed by Callpod, Inc. This technology, which
automatically turns on during a call, signicantly reduces background noise to
optimize and enhance the sound quality of the conversation.
Typical Bluetooth®devices transmit up to 30 feet [9m]. The Dragon is a Class-1
Bluetooth®device, which allows for an increased operating range of up to 328
feet [100m] when connected to another class-1 device—ideal for small ofce,
eld and home environments.
In addition, the Dragon can be connected to two devices at the same time,
allowing a user to answer calls on either device.

The successive and long-term use of any headset or speakers at high volumes
can potentially affect a user’s hearing capacity. This can result in Noise Induced
Hearing Loss (“NIHL”). NIHL may occur if a headset is used at maximum or high
volumes for more than ve (5) minutes per day and if medium volumes are used
for more than one (1) hour per day. The human ear will typically adapt to a
constant volume level set on a headset speaker. If this volume is changed to
a higher level, it may, over time, result in damage to the ear even though no
discomfort is felt. Exposure to sound at a close range, even at lower levels, could
potentially result in hearing loss. The Dragon headset can reach a maximum
volume of approximately 100 decibels. This volume is controlled by the user
through both the headset volume control as well as via the mobile device that it
is paired to (e.g. cell phone).
Like stereos and other sound emitting products that use speakers, please exercise
personal care to select a comfortable volume. Please do not use this product at
high volume levels.
WARNING - Volume Levels: Always Protect Your Hearing
