• Using Mobile Phone
1. For Bluetooth Wireless Connection
When the SR10 is paired with a Bluetooth headset and a
Bluetooth mobile phone, the Bluetooth headset will provide
Hands-Free-Profile for your mobile phone. The SR10 redirects
mobile phone calls and two-way radio communications to the
Bluetooth headset simultaneously so that a Bluetooth headset
could be used for both the mobile phone and hand held
two-way radio.
2. For Wired Connection
Users can connect a mobile phone to the AUX2 port by wire in
order to use Bluetooth handsfree. In this case, the SR10 combines
audio from the main port and the AUX2 port together and redirects to
the Bluetooth headset. For information on mobile phones and cable
compatibility, please visit www.senabluetooth.com.
• Audio Channel Open and Close
The SR10 has to have an audio channel to the Bluetooth headset
to redirect audio from the connected devices; two-way radio, mobile
phone, GPS or radar detector. As soon as an incoming audio
signal from the connected devices is detected by the SR10, it

16
immediately opens an audio channel to the Bluetooth headset
and consequently users hear a certain sound. The triggering
signal to open an audio channel is, for example, a sound of the
two-way radio incoming signal; GPS voice instruction, radar
detector alarm or mobile phone ringtone. The audio channel is
established by Bluetooth Hands-Free Profile (HFP). When incoming
audio no longer exists, the SR10 closes the audio channel and
releases the HFP connection in just a few seconds.
Users can open and close the audio channel manually. To open
or close an audio channel manually, double tap the PTT button
on the SR10 or the wired PTT button extension. It works in toggle
mode.
When the incoming audio input level from the connected devices
is not high enough to trigger the SR10 to open an audio channel
or to maintain existing audio channel, users can open an audio
channel manually. In this case, users have to close the audio
channel and release the HFP connection manually.

• Reset to Factory Default Settings
1. To restore the SR10 to factory default settings, press and hold
the pairing button for 12 seconds until the LED shows solid red.
2. Within 5 seconds, press the pairing button again to confirm
reset. The SR10 will be restored to factory settings and switched
off automatically after the blue LED flashes several times.
3. If you don't press the pairing button within 5 seconds, the reset
attempt is canceled and the SR10 returns to standby mode.
• Fault Reset
If the SR10 is not working properly or is in a faulty status for any
reason, you may reset by pushing the small reset button at the
top of the SR10 main unit. By using a paper clip or a pencil tip,
lightly press and hold the reset button for 1 second. The SR10
will be switched off. Turn the SR10 back on to use it. However,
this will not restore the SR10 to factory default settings.

BATTERY INFORMATION
The SR10 has an internal, non-removable, rechargeable battery. Do not
attempt to remove the battery from the device as you may damage the
device. The battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of times,
but it will eventually wear out. Recharge the battery only with SENA
approved chargers designated for this device. Use of an unapproved
charger may present a risk of fire, explosion, leakage, or other hazard.
Always try to keep the battery between 15°C and 25°C (59°F and 77°F).
Extreme temperatures reduce the capacity and lifetime of the battery. A
device with a hot or cold battery may not work temporarily. 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. Never use any charger that is damaged.
Operating times are estimates only and depend on the devices used
together, features used, battery age and condition, temperatures to
which battery is exposed, and many other factors.

MAINTENANCE AND CARE
The SR10 should be treated with care and the following suggestions
will help you protect your warranty coverage.
1. Do not use or store the device in dusty, dirty areas. Its moving
parts and electronic components can be damaged.
2. Do not store the device in hot areas. High temperatures can
shorten the life of electronic devices, damage batteries, and
wrap or melt certain plastics.
3. 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.
4. Do not attempt to open the SR10.
5. Do not drop or knock the device. Rough handling can break
internal circuit boards and fine mechanics.
6. Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong
detergents to clean the device.
7. Do not paint the device. Paint can clog the moving parts and
prevent proper operation.
