1. Introduction
The Nokia Bluetooth Stereo Headset (HS-12W) allows you to make and
receive phone calls, and listen to FM radio and music tracks or other
audio files.
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.
■RDS (radio data system)
The FM radio of the headset supports the RDS (radio data system)
technology. The RDS feature allows you to view the name of the
selected radio channel on the headset display. The RDS feature also
keeps the headset automatically tuned into the selected radio channel
as long as the channel is available in your location. The RDS feature may
not work with all radio channels or in all countries.
■Bluetooth wireless technology
The HS-12W headset can be connected to a compatible mobile phone or
other device that supports Bluetooth wireless technology. This
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 of each other. Connections can be subject to
interference from obstructions, such as walls, or other electronic
devices.
The HS-12W headset is compliant with Bluetooth Specification 1.2
supporting the following profiles: Headset Profile 1.1, Handsfree Profile
1.0, Advanced Audio Distribution Profile (A2DP) 1.0, Audio/Video
Remote Control Profile (AVRCP) 1.0, General Audio/Video Distribution
Profile (GAVDP) 1.0. Check with the manufacturers of other devices to
determine their compatibility with this device.

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 the device connected to a charger, since overcharging
may shorten the battery lifetime. If left unused, a fully charged battery
will lose its charge over time. Temperature extremes can affect the
ability of your battery to charge.
Never use any battery or 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.

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 the device to dry completely before replacing it.
• Do not attempt to remove the battery from the device. Nokia recommends to
take it to the nearest authorized service facility for replacement of the
battery.
• 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 other than as instructed in this guide.
• 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.
