Introduction
The Nokia Bluetooth Headset BH-208
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. The phone and the
headset do not need to be in line of
sight, but they 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 + EDR
that supports 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.
There may be restrictions on using
Bluetooth technology in some
locations. Check with your local
authorities or service provider.

ENGLISH
Get started
The headset contains the following
parts shown on the title page:
indicator light (1), answer/end key (2),
charger connector (3), earloop (4),
microphone (5), earpiece (6), power
key (7), and volume key (8).
Before using the headset, you must
charge the battery and pair the
headset with a compatible phone.
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 headset. The
headset is intended for use with the
AC-3, AC-4, and DC-4 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.
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
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. The red
indicator light is on while charging.
It may take a while before charging

ENGLISH
starts. If charging does not start,
disconnect the charger, plug it in
again, and retry. Charging the
battery fully may take up to 1 hour
and 30 minutes.
3. When the battery is fully charged,
the indicator light turns to green.
Disconnect the charger from the
headset and the wall outlet.
The fully charged battery has power
for up to 6 hours and 30 minutes of
talk-time or up to 150 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 falls low, the
headset beeps and the red indicator
light starts to flash.
Switch the headset on or off
To switch on, press and hold the power
key until the headset beeps and the
green indicator light is displayed.
To switch off, press and hold the
power key until the headset beeps and
the red indicator light is displayed
briefly.
Pair the headset
1. Ensure that your phone is switched
on and the headset is switched off.
2. Press and hold the power key until
the green indicator light starts to
flash quickly.
3. Activate the Bluetooth feature on
the phone, and set the phone to
search for Bluetooth devices.
4. Select the headset from the list of
found devices.
5. Enter the passcode 0000 to pair
and connect the headset to your
phone. In some phones you may

ENGLISH
need to make the connection
separately after pairing. You only
need to pair the headset with your
phone once.
If the pairing is successful, the
headset beeps and appears in the
phone menu where you can view the
currently paired Bluetooth devices.
The headset is now ready for use.
Basic use
Place the headset on the ear
Slide the earloop behind your ear (9),
and point the headset toward your
mouth. Carefully bend the earloop
around your ear for the best fit (10).
To use the headset on the left ear,
gently detach, rotate, and attach the
earloop as shown in Figures 11 and 12.
Call handling
To make a call, use your phone in the
normal way when the headset is
connected to your phone.
If your phone supports last number
redialing with the headset, press the
answer/end key twice while no call is
in progress.
If your phone supports voice dialing
with the headset, press and hold the
answer/end key when no call in
progress, and proceed as described in
the user guide of your phone.
To answer or end a call, press the
answer/end key. To reject an incoming
call, press the answer/end key twice.
To adjust the headset volume, press
the volume key up or down.
To mute or unmute the microphone,
press the middle of the volume key.

ENGLISH
To switch the call between the
headset and a compatible phone,
press and hold the answer/end key.
Clear settings or reset
To clear all the pairing settings from
the headset, switch off the headset,
and press and hold the power key and
the answer/end key until the red and
green indicator lights start to
alternate.
To reset the headset if it stops
functioning, although it is charged,
plug the headset into a charger, and
press the power key and the answer/
end key at the same time.
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
particularly limited in temperatures well
below freezing.

ENGLISH
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire as
they may explode. Batteries may also
explode if damaged.
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.

ENGLISH
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.
Disposal
The crossed-out wheeled-bin
symbol on your product,
literature, or packaging reminds
you that in the European Union
all electrical and electronic products,
batteries, and accumulators must be
taken to separate collection at the end of
their working life. Do not dispose of these
products as unsorted municipal waste.
Return the products to collection to
prevent possible harm to the
environment or human health from
uncontrolled waste disposal and to
promote the sustainable reuse of
material resources. Collection
information is available from the product
retailer, local waste authorities, national
producer responsibility organizations, or
your local Nokia representative. For more
information, see product Eco-Declaration
or country-specific information at
