Pair the headset to your Bluetooth phone
Pairing is like “introducing”two Bluetooth devices and giving them
permission to connect to each other. If you want to use the headset with
more than one phone, you need to pair it with each phone separately.
Once a phone and the headset are paired, they can connect automatically
whenever they detect each other.
1. Make sure the headset is powered off and the power adapter is not
connected (you can’t use the headset while it’s charging).
ꢀ. Press and hold Power until the LED flashes alternating red and blue. The
headset is in pairing mode and should be visible to other Bluetooth

ꢁ. On your phone, start a search for Bluetooth headsets or handsfree
devices. (This process may take several seconds, and it will be different
for each phone; see your phone’s manual for detailed instructions.)

BT109, or BT109 headset, When your phone asks if you want to pair with
this device, answer yes.

turn the headset off and back on. If headset still won’t connect, check

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 Noise or Static on the Headset
that support the Bluetooth headset or hands- The most common cause of noise or static on any
free profile. This product is not compatible with wireless device is interference. Bluetooth devices
standard cordless phones.
Battery life
operate in the ISM band (2.402 GHz ~ 2.480
GHz); any equipment operating in 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.
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 changed 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 to turn it back on until
you connect the charger or charge the battery.
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

to hear in the current environment. If possible,
use your headset in quiet surroundings or try
to move to an area with less background noise
before adjusting the volume.
• Start with the volume at its lowest setting,
then gradually increase it until you can hear.
• Turn the volume down before powering off the
headset and readjust the volume each time
you turn it on.
Safety and Handling Information
For maximum product life, do not drop, throw, or
crush the headset. Do not expose it to humidity,
dust, or temperatures above 125 F.
Cleaning the headset
• If necessary, remove the ear cushion and
earhook. Dampen a lint-free cloth with water
or a cleaner specially designed for electronics,
and gently wipe the headset clean.
• Do not expose this product to liquid (water,
alcohol, etc.) or submerse in liquid for any
reason.
Avoiding hearing damage
Using any headset or earbud at too high a
volume can cause permanent hearing damage.
• If someone next to you can hear the other end
of the call through your headset or if your ears
hurt or ring when you hang up, the volume is
too high.
• The longer your ears are exposed to noise, the
greater the risk of damage. Limit calls at higher
volumes (or other exposure to loud noise).
