1. Introduction
With the Nokia Bluetooth Stereo Headset BH-604 you can listen to
music from your compatible music player and make and receive
hands-free calls using your mobile phone. The music player can be the
music player feature of your mobile phone or a separate music device.
You can use the headset with compatible devices that support
Bluetooth wireless technology.
Read this user guide carefully before using the headset. Also read the
user guide for your mobile phone, which provides important safety and
maintenance information, and the user guide for your music device.
Keep the headset and its accessories 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
headset and the other device be in line
of sight, but the maximum distance
between the devices is 10 meters
(30 feet). The closer the devices are to
each other, the better is the
performance. The optimal operating
range is shown in dark grey in the
picture. The connection is subject to interference from distance and
obstructions (shown in light grey) or other electronic devices.
The headset is compliant with Bluetooth Specification 2.0 + EDR
supporting the following profiles: Headset Profile 1.1, Hands-Free
Profile 1.5, Advanced Audio Distribution Profile (A2DP) 1.0, and Audio
Video Remote Control Profile 1.0. Check with the manufacturers of
other devices to determine their compatibility with this device.

Before you can start using the headset, you must charge the battery and

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-4, AC-5, and DC-4 chargers.
Warning: Use 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 headset, as you may
damage the headset.

1. Connect the charger to a wall outlet.
2. Connect the charger cable to the charger connector. The indicator
light is red while charging. It may take a while before charging starts.
If charging does not start, disconnect the charger, plug it in again,
and retry.
Charging the battery fully takes less than 1 hour and 15 minutes.
3. When the battery is fully charged, the indicator light turns green.
Disconnect the charger from the headset and the wall outlet.
The fully charged battery has power for up to 18 hours of talk time, up to
2 weeks of standby time, or up to 19 hours of music playing time.
However, the times may vary with different compatible Bluetooth
devices, usage settings, usage styles, and environments.
When battery power is low, the headset beeps at regular intervals, and
the indicator light slowly flashes red. Recharge the battery.
■Switch the headset on or off
Switch on
To switch on, press and hold the multifunction key for about 2 seconds.
The headset beeps, and the green indicator light is briefly displayed.
When the headset tries to connect to the paired mobile phone or music
player that you have last used with it, the indicator light slowly flashes
green. When the headset is connected to a paired device and is ready for
use, the indicator light slowly flashes blue. If the headset has not been
paired with a device, it automatically enters the pairing mode (see “Pair
and connect the headset,” p. 8).
If you connect the headset to a device but do not use it for a while,
switch off the headset to save power.

■Pair and connect the headset
Pair and connect the headset with a mobile phone that
has a music player feature
If your phone supports the A2DP Bluetooth profile and has a music
player feature, you can use the phone to make and receive calls and to
play music with the headset.
1. Ensure that your phone is switched on.
2. If the headset has not been previously paired with a device, switch
on the headset. The headset enters the pairing mode, and the
indicator light starts to flash blue quickly.
If the headset has been previously paired with another device, switch
off the headset, and press and hold the multifunction key until the
indicator light starts to flash blue quickly.
3. Activate the Bluetooth feature on the phone, and set it to search for
Bluetooth devices. See the user guide of your phone for instructions.
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 need to make the connection
separately after pairing. You only need to pair the headset with your
phone once.
If pairing is successful, the headset appears in the menu of the mobile
phone where you can view the currently paired Bluetooth devices.
When the headset is connected with your mobile phone and ready for
use, the indicator light of the headset slowly flashes blue.
Pair and connect the headset with a music player
If your phone does not support the A2DP Bluetooth profile, you can
separately pair the headset with the phone and a music player that
supports this Bluetooth profile.
If you have paired and connected the headset with your phone,
disconnect the headset from it before pairing the headset with a music
player.

To pair the headset with a music player, follow the instructions in “Pair
and connect the headset with a mobile phone that has a music player
feature,” p. 8. If your music player does not have a keypad, it may use the
Bluetooth passcode 0000 by default. If this is not the case, see the user
guide of your music player to change the default Bluetooth passcode to
0000.
If pairing is successful and the headset is connected with your music
player, the indicator light of the headset slowly flashes blue.
Disconnect the headset
To disconnect the headset from your device, switch off the headset, or
disconnect it in the Bluetooth menu of your device.
You do not need to delete pairing with the headset to disconnect it.
Reconnect the headset
To connect the headset to the phone or music player that you have last
used with it, switch on the headset, or make the connection in the
Bluetooth menu of your device.
In your device, you may be able to allow the headset to connect to it
automatically when the headset is switched on. To do this in Nokia
devices, change your paired device settings in the Bluetooth menu.
