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 indicator
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 it to your
Bluetooth-enabled mobile phone. If you do not have a Bluetooth-
enabled mobile phone, please visit http://www.cardosystems.com /BTA

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 be 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.When prompted, enter the passkey “0000” (4 zeros) and press
“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 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.

The S-800 headset can be worn on either your left or right ear.
There are two ways in which you can wear the S-800 headset.
1.Without the earloop: Gently insert the headset without an
earloop into your ear, and it will hold itself in place securely.
2.With the earloop: Insert the straight section of the pin of the
earloop to a suitable depth so that the speaker ts snugly in your ear.
The earloop is exible, and may be adjusted for maximum comfort.
The lanyard for the S-800 provides
an easy and convenient way of
carrying your headset while it is not
in use.

lanyard, insert the speaker into the
upper loop of the lanyard. Then pull
the headset downwards into the
lower loop, until it is held securely
