Introduction
The Nokia Bluetooth Headset BH-204
allows you to make and receive calls
while on the move. You can use the
headset with compatible phones that
support Bluetooth wireless
technology.
Read this user guide carefully before
using the headset. Also read the user
guide for your phone, which provides
important safety and maintenance
information. Keep the headset out of
reach of small children.
Bluetooth wireless technology
Bluetooth wireless technology allows
you to connect compatible devices
without cables. A Bluetooth
connection does not require that the
phone and the headset be in line of
sight, but both devices should be
within 10 meters (30 feet) of each
other. Connections may be subject to
interference from obstructions, such
as walls, or other electronic devices.
The headset complies with the
Bluetooth Specification 2.0 that
supports the Headset Profile 1.1 and
Handsfree Profile 1.5. Check with the
manufacturers of other devices to
determine their compatibility with
this device.

ENGLISH
There may be restrictions on using
Bluetooth technology in some
locations. Check with your local
authorities or service provider.
Get started
The headset contains the following
parts shown on the title page: charger
connector (1), multifunction key (2),
indicator light (3), volume keys (4),
earloop (5), and microphone (6).
Before using the headset, you must
charge the battery and pair the
headset with a compatible phone.
Note: Parts of the headset are
magnetic. Metallic materials
may be attracted to the
headset. Do not place credit cards or
other magnetic storage media near the
headset, because information stored on
them may be erased.
Chargers
Check the model number of any charger
before using it with this device. The
headset is intended for use with the
AC-1, ACP-8, ACP-12, and LCH-12
chargers.
Warning: Use only chargers
approved by Nokia for use
with this particular
enhancement. The use of any other types
may invalidate any approval or warranty
and may be dangerous.
For availability of approved
enhancements, please check with your
dealer. When you disconnect the power
cord of any enhancement, grasp and pull
the plug, not the cord.
Charge the battery
The headset has an internal,
nonremovable, rechargeable battery.
Do not attempt to remove the battery

ENGLISH
from the device, as you may damage
the device.
1. Connect the charger to a wall
outlet.
2. Connect the charger cable to the
charger connector on the headset.
The red indicator light is displayed
while charging. It may take a while
before charging starts. If charging
does not start, connect the charger
again, and retry. Charging the
battery fully may take up to
2hours.
3. When the battery is fully charged,
the red indicator light turns off.
Disconnect the charger from the
headset and the wall outlet.
The fully charged battery has power
for up to 10 hours of talk time or up to
240 hours of standby time. However,
the talk and standby times may vary
when used with different mobile
phones or other compatible Bluetooth
devices, usage settings, usage styles,
and environments.
When battery power is low, the
indicator light flashes quickly and the
headset beeps every 20 seconds.

If the pairing is successful, the
headset beeps once and appears in the
phone menu where you can view the
currently paired Bluetooth devices.
The headset is now ready for use.

Battery information
Your device is powered by a rechargeable
battery. 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.
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.
Never use any charger that is damaged.
Leaving the device in hot or cold places,
such as in a closed car in summer or
winter conditions, will reduce the
capacity and lifetime of the battery.
Always try to keep the battery between
15°C and 25°C (59°F and 77°F). A device
with a hot or cold battery may not work
temporarily, even when the battery is
fully charged. Battery performance is

ENGLISH
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. Dispose of batteries
according to local regulations. Please
recycle when possible. Do not dispose as
household waste.
Care and maintenance
Your device is a product of superior
design and craftsmanship and should be
treated with care. The suggestions below
will help you protect your warranty
coverage.
• Keep all accessories and
enhancements out of the reach of
small children.
• 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.

ENGLISH
• 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.
All of the above suggestions apply
equally to your device, battery, charger,
or any enhancement. If any device is not
working properly, take it to the nearest
authorized service facility for service.
