1. Introduction
With the Nokia Bluetooth Headset BH-701 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 (30 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.

Battery information

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. Dispose of batteries according to local regulations. Please
recycle when possible. Do not dispose as household waste.

Care and maintenance

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.

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.
