Connecting from your headset
When you turn on your headset, it automatically connects to
the last device it was connected to.
Multi-pairing method
Before you can connect your headset to two devices, you
must pair to each device individually using the appropriate
profiles. For phone conversation, use the HSP or HFP profile.
For high quality audio, use the A2DP profile.
A profile can only connect one device at a time. For example,
you cannot use a phone’s MP3 player and a computer’s MP3
player at the same time, because both players are connected
through the A2DP profile.

You can connect the phone using the HSP profile and the
computer using A2DP. This way, you can listen to the music
from the computer and answer phone calls at the same time.
Notes:
In multi-pairing mode, some functions may be restricted
depending on the host devices.
Not all devices and functions may be compatible with
multi-pairing.
Using phone functions
Note: If you connect a phone and an MP3 player, the device
you connect last has priority. For example, if you connect a
phone, then connect an MP3 player, you can answer the
phone while listening to music, but you cannot use the
phone’s redial or voice recognition functions because the
MP3 player controls the buttons.
To use phone functions:
• To voice dial, press
(talk) once to activate voice
dial. (Some phones may not support this function.)
• To redial the last number, double-click (quickly press
