1. Introduction
The Nokia Wireless Headset (HS-36W) can be used with compatible phones that
support Bluetooth wireless technology. This allows you freedom to make and
receive calls while on the move or in the office.
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 allows you 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 HS-36W headset is compliant with the Bluetooth Specification 1.2 supporting
the following profiles: Headset Profile 1.1 and Hands-free Profile 1.0. 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.

2. Get started
The headset contains the following parts:
• Indicator light (1)
• Volume keys (2)
• Charging socket (3)
• Answer/end key (4)
• Earhook (5)
• Nokia Charger Adapter cable (CA-71) (6)
Before you can start to use the headset, you must charge
the battery, and pair a compatible phone with the
headset.
Note: Parts of the headset are magnetic. Metallic materials may be attracted to
the headset, and persons with a hearing aid should not hold the headset to the ear
with the hearing aid. Do not place credit cards or other magnetic storage media
near the headset, because information stored on them may be erased.
■Chargers and batteries
Check the model number of any charger before using it with this device. The Nokia Wireless
Headset (HS-36W) is intended for use with the ACP-12 and LCH-12 chargers.

7Copyright © 2005 Nokia. All rights reserved.
Warning: Use only batteries and 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.
For availability of approved enhancements, please check with your dealer. 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 device, as you may damage the device.
1. Ensure that the Nokia Charger Adapter cable (CA-71) is connected to the
charger that is supplied with the headset. If this is not the case, connect the
one end of the adapter cable to the charger cable.
2. Connect the adapter cable to the headset.
3. Connect the ACP-12 charger to a wall outlet or
the LCH-12 charger to the accessory power
outlet of your car. The blue indicator light is
continuously displayed during charging.
The headset is switched off and cannot be used
during charging.
4. When the battery is fully charged, the blue indicator light switches off.
Disconnect the charger from the wall outlet or the accessory power outlet and
the headset. When you disconnect the power cord of the charger, grasp and
pull the plug, not the cord.

8Copyright © 2005 Nokia. All rights reserved.
The fully charged battery has power for up to 6 hours of talk-time or up to 110
hours of standby time. (In the standby mode, the headset is switched on but no
call is in progress.)
When the battery is running out of power, the red indicator light lights up. Charge
the battery.
■Switch the headset on or off
To switch on, press the answer/end key for about 1 second. To switch off, press
and hold the answer/end key for about 5 seconds.
■Pair the headset with a compatible phone
Make sure that the headset is on, and put it in pairing mode by pressing the
answer/end key and the volume up (+) key at the same time over 5 seconds until
the blue indicator light lights up. The indicator light remains on for 5 minutes,
during which you can pair the headset with a compatible mobile phone.
1. Set the phone to search for Bluetooth devices. See the user guide of your
phone for instructions.
2. When your phone finds the HS-36W headset, confirm the pairing from your
phone.
3. When prompted for the Bluetooth passcode of the headset, enter 0000.
If the pairing was unsuccessful, try to pair the devices again.
You only need to pair the headset with your phone once.

If the pairing was successful, the blue indicator light starts to flash. The headset is
now in the standby mode and ready for use.

3. Basic use
■Wear the headset on either ear
The HS-36W headset is ready to wear on the right ear. If you want to use it on the
left ear, gently flip (1) and rotate the earhook (2).
■Call handling
To answer a call, press the answer key on your mobile phone, or press the answer/
end key on the headset briefly. If you do not want to answer a call, press and hold
the answer/end key on the headset for about 1 second.
To make a call, dial the number with your mobile phone, and press the answer key
on your phone. The call is automatically transferred to the headset.
To redial the last called number, press and hold the answer/end key on your
headset for about 1 second when no call is in progress.

11Copyright © 2005 Nokia. All rights reserved.
If your phone supports voice dialing and there is no call in progress, press the
answer/end key on the headset briefly, and proceed with voice dialing as
described in the user guide of your phone. For the best result, record the voice tag
through your headset.
To increase or decrease the volume of the headset, press either volume key until
the satisfactory volume level is reached.
To end a call, press the end key on your mobile phone, or press the answer/end key
on your headset briefly.
■Store the headset properly
Always store the headset with the power off and safely protected.
Avoid storage in high temperatures (above 60°C/134°F), such as in a hot vehicle or
in direct sunlight. Storage in high temperatures can degrade performance and
reduce the battery life. Low temperatures (down to -10°C/14°F) shorten the
battery life and may affect operation.
■Troubleshooting
The audio quality is poor.
For optimal performance, wear the headset and your mobile phone on the same
side of your body or in line of sight.
I have pairing problems even though my phone indicates otherwise.
You may have deleted the headset pairing in your mobile phone. Pair the devices
again.

12Copyright © 2005 Nokia. All rights reserved.
There is no audio in the headset. Do the following:
• Increase the volume on the headset by pressing the volume up (+) key.
• Ensure that the headset is paired with the phone.
• Make sure that the phone is connected to the headset. If not, try to pair the
devices again.

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 the charger supplied with
this device.
Unplug the charger from the electrical plug and the device when not in use. Do
not leave the battery connected to a charger. Overcharging may shorten its
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.
Use the battery only for its intended purpose. Never use any charger or battery
that is damaged.
Leaving the device in hot or cold places, such as in aclosed 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! Dispose of batteries according to local
regulations. Please recycle when possible. Do not dispose as household waste.

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, remove
the battery and allow the device to dry completely before replacing it.
• 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.
