Introduction
With the Nokia Bluetooth Headset
BH-106, you can make and receive
calls while on the move.
Read this user guide carefully before
using the headset. Also, read the user
guide for the mobile device that you
connect to the headset.
This product may contain small parts.
Keep them out of the reach of small
children. The surface of this device is
nickel-free.
Bluetooth wireless technology
Bluetooth wireless technology allows
you to connect compatible devices
without cables. The headset and the
other device do not need to be in line
of sight, but they should be within 10
metres (33 feet) of each other.
Connections may be subject to
interference from obstructions, such
as walls, or other electronic devices.
The headset is compliant with
Bluetooth Specification 2.1 + EDR
supporting the Headset Profile 1.1 and
Hands-Free Profile 1.5. Check with the
manufacturers of other devices to
determine their compatibility with
this device.

ENGLISH
Get started
The headset contains the following
parts shown on the title page:
earpiece (1), microphone (2), answer/
end key (3), charger connector (4),
plug for fixing the earpiece cable (5),
power key (6), and indicator light (7).
Before using the headset, you must
charge the battery and pair the
headset with a compatible device.
Parts of the device are magnetic. Metallic
materials may be attracted to the device.
Do not place credit cards or other
magnetic storage media near the device,
because information stored on them may
be erased.
Charge the battery
Before charging the battery, carefully
read “Battery and charger
information”.
Warning: Use only chargers
approved by Nokia for use
with this particular model. The use of any
other types may invalidate any approval
or warranty, and may be dangerous.
When you disconnect the power cord of
any accessory, grasp and pull the plug,
not the cord.
1. Connect the charger to a wall
outlet.
2. Connect the charger cable to the
charger connector. The red
indicator light is displayed during

fully may take up to 2 hours.
3. When the battery is fully charged,
the green indicator light is
displayed. Disconnect the charger
from the headset, then from the
wall outlet.
The fully charged battery has power
for up to 5 hours and 30 minutes of

ENGLISH
talk time or up to 120 hours of
standby time.
To check the battery charge when the
headset is not connected to a charger,
press the power key. If the indicator
light is green, the charge level is
sufficient. If the light is yellow, you
may need to recharge the battery
soon. If the light is red, recharge the
battery.
When the battery charge is low, the
headset beeps every 5 minutes and
the red indicator light flashes.
Switch on or off
To switch on, press and hold the power
key for about 2 seconds. The headset
beeps, and the green indicator light is
displayed. The headset tries to
connect to the last connected device.
To switch off, press and hold the

the headset is on. The headset beeps,
and the red indicator light is briefly
displayed. If the headset is not
connected to a device within about 30
minutes, it switches off automatically.
Pair and connect the headset
1. Ensure that your mobile device is
switched on and the headset is off.
2. Press and hold the power key (for
about 5 seconds) until the green
indicator light starts to flash
quickly.
3. Within about 3 minutes, activate
Bluetooth connectivity on your
device, and set it to search for
Bluetooth devices.
4. Select the headset from the list of
found devices.
5. If necessary, enter the passcode
0000 to pair and connect the
headset to your device. In some
devices, you may need to make the

ENGLISH
connection separately after
pairing.
When the headset is connected to
your device and is ready for use, the
green indicator light flashes about
every 5 seconds.
Basic use

seconds, or switch on the headset.
Turn lights on or off
By default, the indicator lights are on
in all situations. To turn the lights off
in some situations (for example,
during a call or when the headset is
connected to a device) or back on,
press and hold the power key and the
answer/end key for about 2 seconds
when the headset is connected to a

until the red and green indicator lights
start to alternate.
To reset the headset if it stops
functioning, even though it is charged,
connect the headset to a charger
while you press and hold the power
key.
Troubleshooting
If you cannot connect the headset to
your compatible device, check that
the headset is charged, switched on,
and paired with your device.
Battery and charger information
This device has an internal,
nonremovable, rechargeable battery. Do
not attempt to remove the battery from
the device as you may damage the
device. This device is intended for use
when supplied with power from the

ENGLISH
following chargers: AC-3, AC-4, AC-5,
AC-8, and DC-4. The exact charger model
number may vary depending on the type
of plug. The plug variant is identified by
one of the following: E, EB, X, AR, U, A, C,
or UB. The battery can be charged and
discharged hundreds of times, but it will
eventually wear out. Recharge your
battery only with Nokia approved
chargers designated for this device. Use
of an unapproved charger may present a
risk of fire, explosion, leakage, or other
hazard.
If a battery is being used for the first time
or if the battery has not been used for a
prolonged period, it may be necessary to
connect the charger, then disconnect and
reconnect it to begin charging the
battery. If the battery is completely
discharged, it may take several minutes
before the charging indicator light is
displayed.
Unplug the charger from the electrical
plug and the device when not in use. Do
not leave a fully charged battery
connected to a charger, since
overcharging may shorten its lifetime. If
left unused, a fully charged battery will
lose its charge over time.
Always try to keep the battery between
15°C and 25°C (59°F and 77°F). Extreme
temperatures reduce the capacity and
lifetime of the battery. A device with a
hot or cold battery may not work
temporarily. Battery performance is
particularly limited in temperatures well
below freezing.
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire as
they may explode. Batteries may also
explode if damaged.
Never use any charger that is damaged.
Important: Battery talk and
standby times are estimates
only and depend on network
conditions, features used, battery age
and condition, temperatures to which
battery is exposed, and many other
factors. The amount of time a device is
used for calls will affect its standby time.
Likewise, the amount of time that the

ENGLISH
device is turned on and in the standby
mode will affect its talk time.
Care and maintenance
Your device is a product of superior
design and craftsmanship and should be
treated with care. The following
suggestions will help you protect your
warranty coverage.
• Keep the device dry. Precipitation,
humidity, and all types of liquids or
moisture can contain minerals that
will corrode electronic circuits. If your
device does get wet, allow it to dry
completely.
• Do not use or store the device in
dusty, dirty areas. Its moving parts
and electronic components can be
damaged.
• Do not store the device in hot areas.
High temperatures can shorten the
life of electronic devices, damage
batteries, and warp or melt certain
plastics.
• Do not store the device in cold areas.
When the device returns to its normal
temperature, moisture can form
inside the device and damage
electronic circuit boards.
• Do not attempt to open the device.
• Do not drop, knock, or shake the
device. Rough handling can break
internal circuit boards and fine
mechanics.
• Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning
solvents, or strong detergents to
clean the device.
• Do not paint the device. Paint can
clog the moving parts and prevent
proper operation.
These suggestions apply equally to your
device, charger, or any accessory. If any
device is not working properly, take it to

ENGLISH
the nearest authorised service facility for
service.
Recycle
The crossed-out wheeled-bin
symbol on your product, battery,
literature, or packaging reminds
you that all electrical and electronic
products, batteries, and accumulators
must be taken to separate collection at
the end of their working life. This
requirement applies in the European
Union. Do not dispose of these products
as unsorted municipal waste. For more
environmental information, see the
product Eco-Declarations at
www.nokia.com/environment.
Always return your used electronic
products, batteries, and packaging
materials to a dedicated collection point.
This way you help prevent uncontrolled
waste disposal and promote the recycling
of materials. More detailed information
is available from the product retailer,
local waste authorities, national
producer responsibility organisations, or
your local Nokia representative. Check
how to recycle your Nokia products at
www.nokia.com/werecycle, or if
browsing on a mobile device,
