1. Introduction
You can use the Nokia Bluetooth Headset BH-500 to listen to music
with your compatible music player and make and answer calls with your
compatible mobile phone. The music player can be the music player
feature of your phone or a separate music playing device.
Read this user guide carefully before using the headset. Also read the
user guide for your phone, which provides important safety and
maintenance information, and the user guide for your music playing
device. Keep the headset out of reach of small children.
■Bluetooth wireless technology
The headset can be connected to a compatible mobile phone or music
player that supports Bluetooth wireless technology. This technology
makes it possible to connect compatible devices without cables. In a
Bluetooth connection, the headset and the other device should be
within 10 meters (30 feet) of each other. Connections can be subject to
interference from obstructions, such as walls, or other electronic
devices.
This headset is compliant with Bluetooth Specification 1.2 supporting
the following profiles: Headset Profile 1.1, Handsfree Profile 1.5,
Advanced Audio Distribution Profile 1.1, and Audio Video Remote
Control 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.
■Water-resistance
• You can use this device, with the supplied headphones, in the rain,
but do not submerge it in water. If you use alternative headphones,
then the device may not be water-resistant.

player, the indicator light of the headset flashes blue.
