BEFORE USING YOUR SPEAKERPHONE  
Thank you  
Thank you for purchasing a Jabra SP500 the most versatile Bluetooth speakerphone on  
the market. Jabra has become the market leader in hands-free communication products  
through the innovation and performance of our products. The Jabra SP500 is designed to  
perform superbly in any location – in the car, the home or the office.  
Check for phone compatibility  
1
The Jabra SP500 is compatible with most Bluetooth¹ (see
Glossary) mobile phones. You can  
check whether your phone has Bluetooth capability by visiting your phone manufacturer’s  
ProductFinder.htm) which has complete information on compatibility.  
Drive safely  
!
Several studies have shown that cell phone usage while driving creates a distraction to  
the driver which may increase the likelihood of an accident. This distraction potential  
is not eliminated by the use of a hands-free phone. Hands-free phones have not been  
shown to be safer than hand-held phones with respect to driver distraction. When using  
the phone while driving, keep conversations short and resist any temptation to make  
notes or read documents. Before answering calls consider your circumstances. Pull off  
the road and park before making or answering calls when driving conditions require  
(e.g. bad weather, high traffic density, presence of children in the car, difficult junctions  
or manoeuvres.)  
Charge the batteries  
2
The Jabra SP500 comes complete with two 1.2-volt (AA 2000 mAh) rechargeable  
batteries that must be fully charged before you use the speakerphone for the first time.  
1. Important: Remove the battery protection plastic sheet to activate the batteries.  
(See fig. 1.  
2. Plug the adaptor jack into the speakerphone and the AC adaptor or the vehicle  
power charger into a power socket. (See fig. 1.  
)
)
3. The 
red light will turn on when charging begins. After approximately 2 hours the red  
light will go out indicating that the Jabra SP500 is fully charged.  
Remember, driving comes first, not the call!  
Abide by local laws.  
4. Unplug the AC adaptor or the vehicle power charger lead from the speakerphone.  
Please check if the local laws where you live restrict the use of mobile phones while  
driving. It is the owner’s responsibility to use this product in compliance with the laws of  
the place where you live.  
5. You are now ready to “pairthe Jabra SP500 with your mobile phone. (See Section 4)  
WARNING: Using another AC adaptor other than the one provided may damage or  
destroy the speakerphone. We recommend that you use the rechargeable batteries  
supplied but you can use other brands. You can not use non rechargeable batteries  
in your Jabra SP500.

Bluetooth profiles⁴
are protocols through which Bluetooth devices communicate with  
each other. Bluetooth phones support different sets of profiles – most support both  
headset and hands-free profile. In order for Bluetooth devices to talk to each other they  
need to support the same Bluetooth profile. Jabra SP500 supports both the headset and  
hands-free profiles.  
Choosing speakerphone placement  
12  
Although the Jabra SP500 is compatible with Bluetooth phones with either Bluetooth  
profile, enhanced features are available for phones that support the hands-free Bluetooth  
profile. Check your phone’s instruction guide or contact the phone manufacturer to find  
out if your phone supports the hands-free Bluetooth profile.  
For optimal performance, place your Jabra SP500 in direct line of sight with your Bluetooth  
mobile phone. You will get better performance when there are no obstructions (including  
parts of your body ) between the Jabra SP500 and your mobile phone. Ensure that the  
microphone is pointing towards your mouth for optimal sound clarity.
