Artone Bluetooth LoopSet - Introduction
Hearing aid users have a problem to communicate over
a mobile phone because of few reasons, the main reason
is the creation of an acoustic interference that is created
when the mobile phone handset is brought close to the
hearing aid.
The Artone Bluetooth LoopSet enables hearing aid
users to avoid the interference from the mobile phone
by removing the phone to “safe” distance from the
hearing aid.
In a time of a call a signal from the mobile phone is
wirelessly sent to the Bluetooth LoopSet, it gets
processed, cleared and amplified and then it is sent to
the user’s hearing aid.
The hearing aid processes the signal once again and
adjusts it to the user’s personal level.
In out put: The signal is captured by the Bluetooth
LoopSet microphone, it gets processed, cleared by
cutting the unnecessary background noises, it is
amplified and then the signal is sent to the user’s
handset. That process enables both parties of the
conversation hear and comprehend each other without
unnecessary struggle and problems.
The whole process is totally wireless and hands free.
Current version of the Artone BT LoopSet supports the
following profiles 2.0 +EDR: handsfree and headset
with prior Bluetooth technology V1.0 & V1.2.

Pairing Bluetooth LoopSet
Note - You must pair your Bluetooth LoopSet with the phone
before making a call.
“Pairing” creates a link between devices with Bluetooth
wireless technology and allows the phone to remember the
LoopSet’s unique ID. When your LoopSet and phone are
paired, your LoopSet automatically connects to your phone.
Put the Bluetooth LoopSet and phone close together (within
one meter distance) (Turn the Loopset on – Press the MFB
button until LED flashes blue color. Learn about all functions
of the LoopSet further in this manual under “Function
Statement” title).
1. With the LoopSet on, hold the volume “+” Button for 2-5
seconds until LED flashes red and blue color in turn.
(if the BT LoopSet is paired to another device, you should
“cut” the current connection, then it can be paired).
2. Perform a device discovery/search from the phone.
● For details on device discovery for your phone, refer to the
phone’s user manual.
● When scan is completed, the phone displays: “device
Found”.
3. Select “Artone” or U&I -03 (depends on the version)
from the found devices list and confirm following the
screen prompts. (follow the phone’s screen instructions)
4. When instructed by the phone, enter the passkey 0000 and
confirm to pair the Bluetooth LoopSet with the phone.
(The device ID is now stored in phone’s memory.)
Pairing is successful when LoopSet indicator flashes blue color
rapidly.
Notes - You need to pair the Bluetooth LoopSet with your
mobile phone one time.
Now the Artone Bluetooth LoopSet is stored in your memory
phone and can be viewed in the phone’s paired Bluetooth
devices list.
Notice: If the link abnormally disconnects (for example, out of
range or phone power off), the loopset tries to reestablish the
link. If the phone disconnects for over 20 minutes, the LoopSet
will turn off automatically. In order to reestablish connection
just turn the Bluetooth LoopSet on. (press MFB one time if the
connection wasn’t automatically reestablished).
