CHARGING THE HEADSET
Connect charger cord into the headset’s
charging port. The MFB’s indicator light
may turn green for several seconds while
the headset determines the level of charge
the battery is holding. Do not remove the
headset from the charger. If the headset is
not fully charged, the indicator will turn RED
within a short period (less than 3 minutes).
When the indicator turns green—and stays
green—the unit is fully charged. A fully
discharged battery will need approximately
3.5 hours to achieve a complete charge.

PAIRING WITH A PHONE
Keepheadsetandphonenolessthan3inchesandnomorethan3feetapartwhilepairing.Keep
other Bluetooth devices at least 50 feet away, or turn them off. NOTE: The headset can be paired
with up to 8 different devices but can only be connected to one at a time. It can only switch back
and forth between 2 devices in Multipoint Mode.
1. Turn headset off (page 9).
2. Hold down the headset’s MFB until the lights alternate red and blue or you hear the audio
prompts “Power On” and then “Discovering.” IMPORTANT: Wait for both audio prompts or the
alternating blue and red lights. This may take up to 10 seconds. Then release the MFB.
3. Put your cellular phone into Bluetooth Search/Scan Mode per the manufacturer’s instructions.
4. Wait while the devices discover each other: This could take up to 2 minutes. Once the phone
discovers the headset, select “Pair” on the phone and enter a pass code of “0000” if in-
structed. Once pairing is complete the alternating lights will stop flashing and the phone may
prompt you to connect to the headset. Select “Yes” on the phone to connect to the headset.
When connected, you will hear the voice prompt, “Your headset is connected,” and the blue
light will flash indicating that the headset is in Standby Mode and is ready to make or receive
calls.
