1. Introduction

Congratulations and thank you for

purchasing allways™, the latest

technology in mobile phone accessories

and the most complete state-of-the-art

technology in Bluetooth™wireless hands-

free cellular Headsets. You can now talk

hands-free on your Bluetooth‘ enabled

mobile phone, made possible by the short-

range wireless connection between your

cell phone or smart PDA and your allways‘

Headset. In case you prefer to use a

standard mobile phone which has no built-

in Bluetooth™technology, you can still

enjoy the Headset’s advantages by

connecting our BT Adapter to your mobile

phone˙ (enables non-Bluetooth™cell

phones to become interoperable with the

Bluetooth™technology of our allways™

Headset),

Whenever this manual refers to both

Headset and Adapter, the term

“product(s)” is used. Otherwise, the

manual refers specifically to each device.

You will become accustomed to operating

and wearing your allways™Headset by

reading this manual. For our customers

who have also purchased the BT Adapter,

this manual will also describe the necessary

operating instructions in section 8.

Features

The following is a list of the features

offered by your allways™hands free

cellular Headset:

• No wires needed to connect your

Headset to your mobile phone.

• Lightweight and comfortable to use and

wear. The allways‘ Headset weighs less

than 3/4 of an ounce (18 grams).

• Clear reception and good quality sound.

• Extended talk time of up to 6 hours and

up to 120 hours standby time.

• While using your Headset you may be

up to 30 feet or 10 meters apart from

your phone.

• Adjustable Eye/Sun glass clip or flexible

ear loop allow you to wear your Headset

on the right or left side.

• Rechargeable high-capacity Li-Polymer

batteries.

• If you have purchased our universal BT

Adapter you will find that its 2.5mm

Headset jack works with most mobile

phones.

Additional Headset Features:

• Calls can be answered and terminated

from either the Headset or from your

mobile phone.

• Calls can be initiated from your mobile

phone; audio will be heard on the Headset.

• The Headset supports voice dialing with

phones equipped with this feature.

• The allways‘ Headset allows transfer of

audio from the Headset to the phone and

vice versa.

• 1-year Limited Warranty.

Overview

Headset Manual 5

Comfort and Style

Your allways™Headset has several unique

features, some of which are patent

protected and cannot be found in other

Bluetooth™Headsets, e.g. our proprietary

mechanism to attach the Headset either

to your Eye/Sun-glasses or loop it around

your ear.

In a matter of seconds you can replace

the eyeglass-clip with the ear-loop and

vice versa.

• Exchangeable designer panels.

You can change the appearance of your

Headset by replacing its color panels with

a design of your choice. The box contains

three alternative default panels (one of

which is already attached to the Headset).

Additional designer panels can be

purchased separately.

• Background noise cancellation and

Mute button

To add convenience and privacy when

handling calls, your allways™Headset is

equipped with a mute button. Quality

sound and background noise cancellation

are provided by advanced circuit design

and a high-quality unidirectional

microphone, embedded in a very short

boom. In addition, all audio passing

through the microphone is being filtered

to allow transfer only of signals in the

desired frequency band.
