4. Pair the mobile phone to the Blue Switch (see ‘Pairing’).
5. If you want to use the Blue Switch as a carkit, place the headset in the cradle and it will
automatically switch to carkit use.
6. If you want to use the Blue Switch as a headset, take the headset out of the cradle and place
it in your ear.
The mr Handsfree Blue Switch is available in 4 versions:

Important!
• Make sure that all the necessary cables, the handsfree unit and/or the external speaker are well
installed before connecting the Blue Switch to the power supply of the car.
• During operation, do not attempt to access the speaker unit and the sockets of the speaker unit.
• For disconnecting the Blue Switch, always disconnect the power supply first.
HEADSET / CARKIT
Please place the unit on the indicated location (see illustration III).
• Make sure the dashboard is clean and free of dust or grease before sticking the Velcro strips!
• Make sure the unit is clean and free of dust or grease before placing the Velcro part on the unit.
• For optimal performance, the microphone should be located at a maximum distance of 50 cm from
the driver’s mouth. If possible, the microphone of the Blue Switch needs to be pointing directly to
the driver’s mouth.
HANDSFREE UNIT
Search for a location in your car where the handsfree unit fits and where it is comfortable for use.
• Make sure that the location in your car where you would like to install your handsfree unit is free
from dust and dirt.
• We recommend mounting the handsfree unit at a less visible position in the car. However, make
sure that the unit can provide good acoustic, by having at least 50 cm distance between the speaker
and the headset / carkit.
• Make sure the speaker is not pointing towards the headset / carkit.
The handsfree unit can be fixed in 2 ways:
1. Under the dashboard or at any other place in the car using the installation screws.
2. Under the dashboard or at any other place in the car using the double-sided tape.
INSTALLATION OF THE BLUE SWITCH

GB-12
CONNECTING TO THE POWER
There are 4 ways of connecting the Blue Switch to the car’s electronic system:
1. Blue Switch Plug & Play: For easy installation (Optional)
Connect the adapter for the cigarette lighter to the car and the other end of the cable to the
handsfree unit.
2. Blue Switch Quick Installation: Immediately to the car’s electronic system via the small mute cable
(Optional).
The wires of the small mute cable are color-coded. They are listed in Table 1 in column A and each
wire should be connected to the corresponding item listed in column B.
Table 1
• To avoid distortions, make sure that the cables are laid far away from the electronic systems of
the car.
• Connect the wires with the contact clips. Put the car wire in the through groove of the clips and
the cable wire in the groove with the confining rib.
Attention!
If there is no “Ignition” wire or if it is unavailable, you should connect the blue cable wire to the red
wire of the handsfree unit and the red cable wire to the “Continuous” wire of the car which keeps
the voltage when the ignition is turned off.
In this case, the phone call will not be disconnected if the ignition is turned off.

CAR RADIO MUTING (CRM)
The Blue Switch allows muting your car radio when there is an incoming call.
• Check the user’s manual of your car radio and ensure that it has a Mute function. If additional
settings have to be set from the car radio menu, make sure that they are done correctly.
• Remove the control panel of the car radio.
• Remove the decorative panel and take the car radio out of the sleeve using the handles.
Disconnect the car radio plug.
• Connect the wires of the mr Handsfree Blue Switch to the corresponding wires of the car jack
or of the ISO jack of the car radio. Use the contact clips for the connection.
• Restore connection and installation of the car radio.
3. Blue Switch Pro: Immediately to the car’s electronic system via the ISO cable (Optional).
Many cars have their own type of audio connectors. In such case, you will need an ISO2CAR adapter
cable (please check www.iso2car.eu for more details).
• Disconnect the car radio and power leads.
• Join the cable according to the connection diagram shown below. If the car radio has a mute
jack, connect the yellow wire of the ISO cable to one of the “mute in” jacks (1, 2 or 3). Refer to
your car radio manual to determine the position of the mute jack.
• The default connection is “mute 1”. In case this is not corresponding with your car radio, your
car radio will not show “mute” on the screen. However, the sound on the speakers will still be
disconnected from your car radio and connected to your carkit during a phone call.
• The fuses are for (+) plus and (+) ignition. In some cases (e.g. Renault) these fuse holders need
to be swapped.
