TAKE A GOOD LOOK
Your headset may look slightly different than the illustration, but will still work as described.
CONNECT TO YOUR PHONE
“Pairing” is the set-up process of introducing your headset to your
phone. Before using your headset for the first time, you must pair it with
your Bluetooth-enabled phone.
“Multipoint” lets you pair this headset with two phones so you can answer
a call from either phone. You must activate multipoint before pairing second
phone.
READY
First Time, Right Out of the Box:
Turn on the headset. The LED flashes red/blue to indicate pairing mode.
Activate Multipoint (for 2nd phone)
While pressing Call button, turn on the headset and continue pressing Call
button until LED flashes blue twice. Repeat to turn off multipoint.
Pair New or Second Phone
Turn on headset. Press Call button until the LED flashes red/ blue.
SET
Activate the Bluetooth feature on your phone, then get phone to add / search /
discover new Bluetooth devices.
Phones Have Different Menus to Select from, for example:

devices)
BlackBerry® smartphone:
Settings/options > Bluetooth: On > Search for devices
Android™:
Settings > Wireless & Networks > Bluetooth: On > Scan for devices

TIPS
Stay Near Your Phone
Bluetooth has a working “range” of up to 33 feet between the phone and headset before audio degrades and the connection is lost.
Know How to Reconnect
Your headset tries to reconnect a lost connection. If it can’t, then tap the Call button once or manually reconnect via the phone’s Bluetooth device menu.
Listen to the Voice
This headset automatically announces various status alerts, including
- Power on/off
- Battery high, medium, low or recharge
- Pairing in process, successful or incomplete
- Connected or lost connection [to phone]
Listen to Music and More (M50 series only)
If your phone also has the Bluetooth “A2DP” stereo music feature, then your music, podcasts, favorite internet radio and other streaming audio can be heard through this headset.
Use Multipoint One Call at a Time
Once you have activated multipoint and paired your two phones, it’s easy to
answer calls from either phone.
When already on a call, you will hear a ringtone notification of the incoming
call from the second paired phone.
To answer a second call from the other phone, you must end the current call
(tap Call button) so new call automatically answers.
If you choose not to answer the second call, it will go to voicemail.
