What is Bluetooth?

Bluetooth wireless technology provides a way for devices to communicate with each other using short-range radio frequency instead of wires. Any two Bluetooth devices can communicate as long as they both have Bluetooth turned on, they are within range and they have been paired ??? a quick ???handshake??? process that connects the two devices. Bluetooth range is up to 33 feet (10 meters). Obstructions such as walls or other electronics devices can cause interference or shorten the effective range.

NOTE For optimal performance, place your headset and phone on the same side of your body.

Pairing Your Headset

Pairing is the process of introducing your headset to your phone. Before using your headset for the first time, you must pair it with your Bluetooth phone. Normally you need to pair your headset with your phone only once.

To see a demo of the pairing process, visit www.plantronics.com/ EasyToPair.

Plantronics QuickPair??? Technology

Your new headset includes Plantronics QuickPair technology to simplify the Bluetooth setup process. The first time you turn your headset on, your headset automatically enters pairing mode for 10 minutes. Once paired successfully, your headset stays on for instant use.

If not sucessfully paired after 10 minutes, your headset automatically powers off. When you turn the headset on again, it automatically goes into pairing mode until successfully paired with a Bluetooth phone.
