1. Introduction
With the Nokia Bluetooth Headset BH-803 you can make and receive
calls while on the move and use your mobile device hands free. 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 device, which provides important safety and
maintenance information. 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 mobile device and the
headset be in line of sight, but the
maximum distance between the devices
is 10 meters (33 feet). The closer the
mobile device and the headset 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.
<10m

Introduction

The headset is compliant with the Bluetooth Specification 2.0 + EDR
supporting the following profiles: 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.

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 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 may take up to 1 hour with the AC-6 or DC-6 charger.
3. When the battery is fully charged, the indicator light turns green.
Disconnect the charger from the headset and the wall outlet.
The battery can also be charged through the USB port of a compatible PC
using the Nokia Connectivity Cable CA-101 (sold separately). Connect one
end of the cable to the charger connector and the other end to the USB
port on the PC.

The fully charged battery has power for up to 6 hours of talk time or up to
160 hours of standby time. However, the talk and standby times may vary
when used 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.
■Switch the headset on or off
To switch on, press and hold the multifunction key until the headset beeps
and the indicator light turns on. When the headset can be connected to a
paired device, 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 the headset,” p. 9).
To switch off, press and hold the multifunction key for at least 4 seconds
until the indicator light turns red. If the headset is not connected to a
paired device within about 30 minutes, it switches off automatically.
■Pair the headset
1. Ensure that your mobile device is switched on.
2. To pair the headset if it 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.

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.
■Troubleshooting
If you cannot connect the headset to your mobile device, do as follows:
• Ensure that the headset is charged, switched on, and paired with your
device.
• Ensure that the Bluetooth feature is activated on your device.

Battery information
16
4. 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.
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire as they may explode. Batteries may also
explode if damaged.

Care and maintenance
17
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.
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.

Care and maintenance

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 www.nokia.com.
