Introduction, trademark rights
Bluetooth®is a wireless communication system with
a short range. It makes possible wireless connections
between Bluetooth®appliances, such as for example
mobile telephones, PDA and PCs. Bluetooth®relates
itself to a worldwide standard for operation in the inter-
nationally recognised ISM Frequency Range (Industrial,
Scientific and Medical). Within the ISM Frequency Range
(2.402 - 2.480 GHz), a data transfer range of ca. 10 meters
(class II) is achieved. The disturbance susceptibility through
other users of the ISM Frequency Range, such as for
example microwaves, WLAN (802.11) or garage door
openers, is minimised by so-called “Frequency-Hopping“.
With Frequency-Hopping, a change of frequency levels
takes place at up to 1600 times per second, thereby
Bluetooth®is also reckoned to be relatively tap-proof.
However, data transferred via a radio link can be inter-
cepted by unauthorised third parties.
The Bluetooth®logotype and Bluetooth®logo are
registered trademarks of Bluetooth SIG, Inc. (Special
Interest Group). Any use of the trademarks by Kompernaß
Handels GmbH is made under the provisions of a licence.
All other names and brands are the property of their owner.
The HSP (Headset-Profil) makes possible standard func-
tions such as voice transference, as well as the accept-
ance and rejection of calls.
The HFP (Handsfree-Profil) makes possible the hands-free
call functions of a mobile telephone, for example with the
help of voice commands.

Installing the hands-free appliance
in a vehicle
So that the hands-free appliance can function correctly, it
is connected to the vehicle cigar lighter socket or on-board
power socket and provided with electricity from there.
ƔEnsure that the hands-free appliance engages
completely and that the operation of the vehicle is
not negatively influenced. The hands-free set must be
easily accessible and the speaking distance kept to
a minimum. The LED status indicator blinks twice
every 3 seconds and a short high signal tone sounds
once. The appliance is in standby mode.
Note:
It is possible that the cigar lighter only functions when the
vehicle ignition is switched on. In cases of doubt, consult
the operating instructions for the particular vehicle.
Caution!
For vehicles in which the cigar lighter, resp. the vehicle cir-
cuit plug, also functions when the ignition is switched off:
ƔUse the hands-free appliance only when the motor is
running. Otherwise, the vehicle batteries could become
discharged over an extended period of time.
Note:
When you are not using the hands-free equipment remove
it from the vehicles cigarette lighter socket. Store it in a dry,
dust free location protected from direct sunlight.

followed by a short low beep and the LED status
indicator flashes every 3 seconds.
ƔYou can now use the hands-free appliance.
Note:
When using the latest mobile phones, (Smartphones) those
that are equipped with Bluetooth®2.0 or a more mod-
ern version, it is possible that the pass code “9999“ need
not be entered. If the coupling is not completed within 2
minutes, the hands-free appliance switches itself off. The
LED status indicator extinguishes and you will hear a
long and deep signal tone. With some mobile telephones
it is possible that coupling does not automatically take
place. In this case coupling must be carried out addition-
ally on the mobile telephone. The LED status indicator 
blinks twice every 3 seconds until this has been carried
out. Further information can be found in your mobile
telephone’s operating instructions.

SBTF 10 C3
■ 10 │ GB│CY
Multipoint function
The multipoint function allows you to use the hands-free kit
with two mobile phones simultaneously. This is useful for
users with a private and a business mobile phone.
If you have paired several mobile phones, the hands-free
kit will now have several “known” devices available. This
status is a prerequisite for an active connection between
the hands-free kit and other mobile phones. A maximum
of 8 mobile phones can be saved as “known” devices.
The number of devices that can be actively linked to the
hands-free kit is limited to two. As soon as one or two of
the known devices come into range of the hands-free kit,
connection to the devices is made automatically. In some
cases, you must confirm the connection manually on your
mobile phone.
If a third “known” device comes into range of the hands-
free kit, the connection to this device will remain blocked
until one of the two active connections is broken or one
of the two devices leaves the transmission range. If the
connection of one of the paired devices is broken, the
link becomes free for the third (waiting) device.
If two mobile phones are connected to the hands-free
kit, the ring tone will sound from the phone itself and not
the hands-free kit when there is an incoming call to the
second mobile phone.
Pairing the hands-free kit with an
additional mobile phone
ƔMake sure that the first mobile phone is not connected
to the hands-free kit.
ƔSwitch off the hands-free kit by pressing the multifunction
button for about 5 seconds. You will hear a long,
low beep and the LED status indicator goes out.
ƔPress and hold the multifunction button for about
6 seconds. After 3 seconds, you will hear a short
high-pitched beep followed 3 seconds later by another
high-pitched beep. The LED status indicator lights
up permanently.
