1. Introduction
The Nokia Bluetooth Headset BH-300 allows you freedom to make and
receive calls while on the move or in the office. You can connect the
headset to a compatible phone that supports Bluetooth wireless
technology.
Read this user guide carefully before using the headset. Read also 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 makes it possible to connect compatible
communication 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 wireless headset is compliant with Bluetooth Specification 2.0 + EDR
supporting the Headset Profile 1.1 and Handsfree 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.

■Troubleshooting
If you cannot connect the headset to your phone, do as follows:
• Ensure that the headset is charged, switched on, and paired with
your phone.
• Ensure that the Bluetooth feature is activated on your phone.
• Check that the headset is within 10 meters (30 feet) of your phone
and that there are no obstructions between the headset and the
phone, such as walls, or other electronic devices.
• To reset the headset if it stops functioning, although it is charged,
plug the headset into a charger, and briefly press the power key and
the answer/end key at the same time. This reset does not clear your
settings (for example, pairing settings).

■Switch the call between the phone and headset
To switch the call between the headset and a compatible Nokia phone,
press and hold the answer/end key, or use the respective function in
your phone.
■Use the headset with several phones
You can pair the headset with up to eight phones but connect it to
only one phone at a time.
The phone that was first paired with the headset is the default phone.
If the headset is switched on within 10 meters (30 feet) of several paired
phones, the headset tries to connect to the default phone.
If the headset cannot connect to the default phone, the headset tries
to connect to the last used phone. If the headset cannot connect to this
phone either, one of the other six paired phones can be connected to
the headset. To make the connection, see the user guide of your phone.
■Clear the settings
If you want to clear all the settings from the headset (for example, the list
of paired devices if you cannot pair the headset with your phone), press
and hold the power key and the answer/end key over 10 seconds. After
the settings are cleared, the headset beeps twice, and the red and green
indicator lights alternate for several seconds.

Battery information
14
4. Battery information
Your device is powered by a rechargeable battery. The full performance of a new
battery is achieved only after two or three complete charge and discharge cycles.
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.
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
15
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.
• 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.
