Some common sources of interference in this range are: • Equipment that uses microwaves, especially microwave ovens • Wireless LAN equipment or WiFi connections • Other Bluetooth devices or computers • Certain cordless telephones • Certain medical equipment and appliances If you have problems with static during calls, look for one of these interference sources. Try moving away from the suspected source. If the noise continues, there may be interference on your phone itself, and any noise in the phone's connection will come through on the headset, too. Transfer the call to your phone and see if the audio quality improves. If it doesn't, check around for things that might interfere with your phone.

General Information
You cannot use the headset while it is recharging.
Bluetooth wireless devices have a maximum range of
30 feet (10 m); the actual range will vary depending on
current conditions (obstacles, battery power, interference,
etc.).
The headset can be connected only to devices that
support the Bluetooth headset or hands-free profile. This
product is not compatible with standard cordless phones.
Battery life
With average use, the battery should provide about 9 hours
of talk time and 8 days of standby time. A battery that is new
or left unused for long periods of time can have reduced
capacity the first few times it is used. For maximum battery
life, keep your battery charged.
When the battery only has enough charge for about 15
minutes of talk time, the headset triggers a low battery
alert: you’ll hear a periodic beep, and the LED changes
from blue to red.
When the battery no longer has enough charge to operate
the headset, the headset will power off; you won’t be able

The most common cause of noise or static on any wireless
device is interference. Bluetooth devices operate in the ISM

this frequency range might interfere with the headset. Some
common sources of interference in this range are:
Equipment that uses microwaves, especially microwave
ovens
Wireless LAN equipment or WiFi connections
Other Bluetooth devices or computers
Certain cordless telephones
Certain medical equipment and appliances
If you have problems with static during calls, look for one
of these interference sources. Try moving away from the
suspected source.
If the noise continues, there may be interference on your
phone itself, and any noise in the phone’s connection will
come through on the headset, too. Transfer the call to your
