Setting Up Your Travel Kit
Charge the Battery
Before using your travel kit, charge the battery for at least 3 hours. Charging the battery
completely (and keeping it charged) will help you get the longest possible talk and
standby time out of the battery. (On average, the battery provides about 12 hours of talk
time and about 10 days of standby time.)
Connect either adapter to the power connector on the back of the travel kit. Connect
the AC adapter to any standard 120 V AC (regular indoor) power outlet. Connect the DC
adapter to any standard 12 V DC (regular automobile) power outlet.
Use ONLY the power adapters supplied with the travel kit! Using any other adapter
could damage your travel kit, create a re hazard, or cause a risk of electric shock!
Pair the Travel Kit to your Bluetooth Phone
Pairing is like “introducing” two Bluetooth devices and giving them permission to
connect to each other. If you want to use the travel kit with more than one phone, you
need to pair it with each phone separately. Once you pair a phone to the travel kit, the
two devices can connect automatically whenever they can detect each other.

Make sure the travel kit is powered o and the power adapter is not connected (you can’t use the
travel kit while it’s charging).
Press and hold Multi-function until the display shows Pairing Mode and you hear the Pairing
melody. This means the travel kit is visible to other Bluetooth devices.
On your phone, start a search for Bluetooth travel kits or hands-free devices. (This process may
take several seconds, and it will be dierent for each mobile phone; see your phone’s owner’s
manual for detailed instructions.)
Your phone should discover a device called a BTSC-1500 or a Handsfree device.When your
phone asks if you want to pair with this device, answer yes.
When your phone prompts you for a PIN code or password to pair with the BTSC-1500, enter
0000.
When the travel kit is paired, connected displays and the travel kit beeps. Your phone might
display a conrmation message, also.
Your phone might ask if you want to change the travel kit’s name; generally, you should only
change the name if you have more than one BTSC-1500 that you use with this phone.

Connecting to your phone
Most phones connect to the travel kit as soon as you pair it; if yours won’t, turn the
travel kit o and back on. If the travel kit still won’t connect, check your phone’s owner’s
manual for additional information.
Once the travel kit is paired:
Each time you turn the travel kit on, it automatically connects to whatever device it
was connected to last.
If the travel kit loses the connection (e.g., if your phone is out of range), it should
reconnect automatically when it detects the phone again. To manually reconnect,
press Multi-function .
If the travel kit is inactive for 10 minutes, the display turns o. It turns back on if it
detects activity or a button press. If there is more than 1 hour without a Bluetooth
connection, it will automatically turn itself o.
Inverting the Travel Kit
The travel kit can operate upside down so you can clip it to either side of your visor.
To reverse the visor clip: press in on the two tabs that come through the holes in the clip,
and slide the clip out. Rotate the clip 180 degrees and slide it back in.
