Recharging the Battery Inside the Case
The charging case provides two full charges to your earpiece before
the battery within the case requires charging.
1 To check the battery status of the charging case, refer to
the LCD display on the case.
The battery status may change if you insert the earpiece because
the battery will transfer power to the earpiece.
2 Plug either the AC charger or the USB charger to power
source before connecting to the charging jack on the side
of the case.
While the case is charging, the LCD battery icon (above the case
image) flashes to indicate charge level.
NOTE If you disconnect the power source from the case after 10
minutes of charging you must then wait at least 60 minutes before
reconnecting a power source to resume the charging cycle.

Pairing Your Earpiece
Before using your earpiece for the first time, you must pair it with
your Bluetooth®wireless technology enabled phone.
Your new earpiece includes Plantronics QuickPair™technology to
simplify the Bluetooth setup process. The first time you turn your
earpiece on, your earpiece automatically enters pairing mode for 10
minutes. Once paired successfully, your earpiece stays on for instant
use.
If not successfully paired after 10 minutes, your earpiece automatically
powers off. When you turn the earpiece on again, it automatically
goes into pairing mode until successfully paired with a Bluetooth
phone.
NOTE This earpiece is equipped with Secure Simple Pairing (SSP).
If your phone supports SSP, you will not need to enter a PIN code or
Passkey.
