What Is Bluetooth?  
Bluetooth wireless technology provides a way for devices, like headsets  
and phones, to communicate with each other without wires. 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.  
Plantronics QuickPair™ Technology  
To simplify the Bluetooth setup process, your new headset uses  
Plantronics QuickPair technology. This process is shown on the next page.  
the rst time you turn your headset on, your headset  
automatically enters pairing mode for 10 minutes.  
Until you successfully pair your headset with a Bluetooth-  
enabled phone, every time you turn it on it will enter pairing mode.  
to later pair to a new phone, turn on the headset, then press  
and hold the Call Control button until red then blue flashing  
appears, which indicates pairing mode status.  
Range (the distance between headset and phone)  
To maintain the connection, keep your headset within 33 feet  
of your phone.  
• For the least amount of interference place the headset and  
phone on the same side of your body.  
If you move too far from your phone and lose the Bluetooth connection:  
the headset may reconnect automatically within 60 seconds when  
you move closer to your phone (you will hear a low tone), OR  
• you may have to tap the Call Control button to reconnect (you  
will hear a low tone), OR  
• if neither of the above options work, you may have to  
reconnect to your headset using your phones Bluetooth menu.
