sure that the headset, two-way radio, and COBALT adapter are all powered oto start. To turn the
headset ohold the Multifunction Button + the Volume Down button for three to four seconds.
STEP TWO: Place the COBALT Radio adapter into pairing mode. The steps needed to do this depend on

Talk button on the COBALT Radio Adapter while turning the two-way radio ON.
If your COBALT Radio Adapter has its own charger/internal battery pack, turn the power switch on the
COBALT Radio Adapter to the ON position while holding down the multifunction Talk button on the
COBALT Radio Adapter.
If your COBALT Radio Adapter gets power from an external source (such as an automobile cigarette lighter
jack), hold down the Talk button on the COBALT Radio Adapter while plugging the adapter into the
external power source (cigarette lighter jack).
Continue to hold the Talk button on the adapter down for approximately three seconds. Release the
Talk button when the status LED on the COBALT Radio Adapter begins to ash two times per second.
The COBALT Radio Adapter is now in audio accessory pairing mode.

the Multifunction Button on the headset for three to four seconds. Continue to hold the button down
until you see the LED Indicator on the headset begin to quickly ash RED-BLUE-RED-BLUE in sequence.

COBALT BLUE-HS Bluetooth Headset and Radio Adapter are paired with each other, the status LED on
the adapter will show a constant blue light for three seconds. The LED on the headset will then show
three blue ashes every two seconds.
If the COBALT Radio Adapter does not detect the headset within 60 seconds of being put into pairing
mode, the adapter will exit the pairing mode and resume normal operation.

on your phone. If the phone asks for a passcode, enter “0000”. The phone may also prompt you to

and phone are paired with each other, the status LED on the headset will show three blue ashes every
two seconds.

device at a time. You can use the headset with a cellular phone OR with a two-way radio adapter BUT
NOT BOTH AT THE SAME TIME.
RECONNECTING TO A PREVIOUSLY PAIRED DEVICE
Once the COBALT BLUE-HS Bluetooth Headset and Radio Adapter or cellular phone have been
successfully paired together, both devices will remember that connection. The adapter/phone and
headset will attempt to reestablish their link whenever they are both powered on and in within range
of each other. Re-establishing this connection can take 10-60 seconds.

headset or volume control on the two-way radio/phone.
