Getting Started
To use your Cardo S-800 (“the headset”), please follow these
initial steps:
• Charge your headset
• Pair your headset with a Bluetooth®-enabled mobile phone.
1. Charging your Headset
The headset comes with a built-in rechargeable battery. Prior to
using the headset, make sure to charge the headset for at least 4
hours. Normally it takes approximately 2 hours to fully charge the
headset.
1. Connect the charger to an AC wall outlet and the charger plug to
the headset’s Charging Jack. The headset’s LED status indica--
tor will be red during charging.
2. When the battery is fully charged, the red LED will turn off.
3. Disconnect the charger from AC wall outlet and the headset.
NOTE: Charging indication may be delayed for a few seconds if the
headset has not been used for a long time or the battery is drained.

The fully charged battery offers up to 8 hours talk time and up to
one week standby time.
2. Pairing your Headset
Before you can use your headset you must pair the headset to your
Bluetooth-enabled mobile phone. If you do not have a Bluetooth-enabled
mobile phone, please visit http://cardosystems.com/adapter2.php for
information on the Cardo BTA II Bluetooth Adapter.
1. Turn on your phone and turn ON its Bluetooth function.
2. Make sure the headset is turned OFF, then press and hold the
Power Button for approximately 8 seconds until the LED status
indicator begins alternating blue and red, indicating that the
headset is in Pairing Mode.
3. Set the phone to search for Bluetooth devices by following the
instructions in the phone’s user guide. This is usually found in the
phone’s Bluetooth menu and may referred to as “discover” or
“add” a device.
4. After a few seconds, the phone will list the “Cardo S-800” as a
discovered device. Select it from the list and press “OK” or “Yes”.

5

“OK” to complete the pairing.
6. When the pairing is complete, your phone will conrm that the
pairing was successful and the headset’s LED status indicator
will begin ashing slowly in blue.
You should now be able to make and receive calls using your
headset. To initially connect the headset to your phone, you may
need to tap the CTRL Button once on the headset.
IMPORTANT: If the pairing is not completed within 2 minutes while
the Pairing Mode is activated, the headset will return to Standby
mode, ashing blue once every three seconds and you must start
the Pairing process again from Step 2 above.
NOTE: Your headset can pair with up to 8 phones, and will
automatically connect to the last phone connected to the headset. To
connect to a different paired phone, go to the Bluetooth menu of the
active phone and disconnect the headset. Then go to the Bluetooth
menu of the phone you wish to connect and connect the headset by
selecting it from the list of Paired Devices.

convenient way of carrying your headset while it is
