Introduction

The Nokia Bluetooth Headset

BH-300 allows you to make and

receive calls while on the move.

You can use the headset with

compatible phones that support

Bluetooth wireless technology.

Read this user guide carefully

before using the headset. Also read

the user guide for your phone,

which provides important safety

and maintenance information.

Keep all accessories and

enhancements out of the reach of

small children.

Bluetooth wireless

technology

Bluetooth wireless technology

allows you to connect compatible

devices without cables. The phone

and the headset do not need to be

in line of sight, but they should be

within 10 meters (30 feet) of each

other. Connections may be subject

to interference from obstructions,

such as walls, or other electronic

devices.

The headset complies with the

Bluetooth Specification 2.0 + EDR

that supports the Headset Profile

1.1 and Hands-Free Profile 1.5.

Check with the manufacturers of

other devices to determine their

compatibility with this headset.

There may be restrictions on using

Bluetooth technology in some

locations. Check with your local

authorities or service provider.

Get started

The headset contains the following

parts shown on the title page:

power key and indicator light (1),

microphone (2), charger connector

(3), answer/end key (4), changeable

earloop (5), and strap catch (6).

Before using the headset, you must

charge the battery and pair the

headset with a compatible phone.

Parts of the headset are magnetic.

Metallic materials may be attracted

to the headset. Do not place credit

cards or other magnetic storage

media near the headset, because

information stored on them may be

erased.

Chargers

Check the model number of any

charger before using it with this

headset. The headset is intended for

use with the AC-3, AC-4, and DC-4

chargers.

Warning: Use only

chargers approved by

Nokia for use with this

particular headset. The

use of any other types

may invalidate any

approval or warranty and

may be dangerous.

For availability of approved

enhancements, please check with

your dealer. When you disconnect the

power cord of any enhancement,

grasp and pull the plug, not the cord.

Charge the battery

The headset has an internal,

nonremovable, rechargeable

battery. Do not attempt to remove

the battery from the headset, as

you may damage the headset.

1. When the back of the headset is

facing you, detach the earloop

from the left of the headset.

2. Connect the charger to a wall

outlet.

3. Connect the charger cable to

the headset. The red indicator

light is on while charging. It

may take a while before

charging starts. If charging does

not start, connect the charger

again and retry. Charging the

battery fully may take up to

2hours.

4. When the battery is fully

charged, the red indicator light

turns off. Disconnect the

charger from the headset and

the wall outlet.

The fully charged battery has

power for up to 5 hours and 30

minutes of talk-time or up to 150

hours of standby time. However,

the talk and standby times may

vary when the headset is used with

different mobile phones or other

compatible Bluetooth devices,

usage settings, usage styles, and

environments.

When battery power is low, the

headset beeps, and the red

indicator light starts to flash.

Switch the headset on or off

To switch on, press and hold the

power key until the green indicator

light starts to flash.

To switch off, press and hold the

power key until the red indicator

light is displayed briefly.

Pair the headset

1. Switch on your phone and the

headset.

2. Activate the Bluetooth feature

on the phone, and set the phone

to search for Bluetooth devices.

3. Select the headset from the list

of found devices.

4. Enter the Bluetooth passcode

0000 to pair and connect the

headset to your phone. In some

phones you may need to make

the connection separately after

pairing. You only need to pair

the headset with your phone

once.

If the pairing is successful, the

headset beeps and appears in the

phone menu where you can view

the currently paired Bluetooth

devices. When the headset is

connected to a paired phone and is

ready for use, the green indicator

light flashes slowly.

Basic use

Place the headset on the ear

The headset has an earloop

attached around it. To use the

headset without placing the

earloop over the ear, plug the

earpiece into your ear.

To use the headset with the

earloop on the right ear, detach the

earloop from the right of the

headset (8) when the back of the

headset is facing you; to use the

headset on the left ear, detach the

earloop from the left. Slide the

earloop behind your ear (8), and

point the headset toward your

mouth.

Change the earloop

To change the earloop, detach it

from both sides of the headset, and

attach the new earloop by

inserting the catches at the ends of

the earloop into the slots in the

headset.

Carry the headset in the strap

You can wear the headset on your

neck using the supplied strap. To

fix the headset to the strap, insert

the headset into the catch (9), and

gently push it downwards (10)

until it locks into place. To detach

the headset, slide it downwards

through the catch.

Call handling

To make a call, use your phone in

the normal way when the headset

is connected to your phone.

If your phone supports last number

redialing with the headset, press

the answer/end key twice briefly

when no call is in progress.

If your phone supports voice

dialing with the headset, press and

hold the answer/end key when no

call in progress, and proceed as

described in the user guide of your

phone.

To answer or end a call, press the

answer/end key. To reject an

incoming call, press the answer/

end key twice.

To switch the call between the

headset and a compatible phone,

press and hold the answer/end key.

Clear the settings or reset the

headset

To clear the settings, press and

hold the power key and the

answer/end key over 10 seconds.

To reset the headset if it does not

function properly, although it is

charged, plug the headset into a

charger, and briefly press the

power key and the answer/end key

at the same time.

Battery information

Your headset is powered by a

rechargeable battery. The battery can

be charged and discharged hundreds

of times, but it will eventually wear

out. Recharge your battery only with

Nokia approved chargers designated

for this headset.

Unplug the charger from the

electrical plug and the headset when

not in use. Do not leave a fully

charged battery connected to a

charger, since overcharging may

shorten its lifetime. If left unused, a

fully charged battery will lose its

charge over time.

Never use any charger that is

damaged.

Leaving the headset in hot or cold

places, such as in a closed car in

summer or winter conditions, will

reduce the capacity and lifetime of

the battery. Always try to keep the

battery between 15°C and 25°C (59°F

and 77°F). A headset with a hot or

cold battery may not work

temporarily, even when the battery is

fully charged. Battery performance is

particularly limited in temperatures

well below freezing.

Do not dispose of batteries in a fire as

they may explode. Batteries may also

explode if damaged. Dispose of

batteries according to local

regulations. Please recycle when

possible. Do not dispose as household

waste.

Care and maintenance

Your device is a product of superior

design and craftsmanship and should

be treated with care. The following

suggestions will help you protect your

warranty coverage.

• Keep the device dry. Precipitation,

humidity, and all types of liquids

or moisture can contain minerals

that will corrode electronic

circuits. If your device does get

wet, allow it to dry completely.

• Do not use or store the device in

dusty, dirty areas. Its moving parts

and electronic components can be

damaged.

• Do not store the device in hot

areas. High temperatures can

shorten the life of electronic

devices, damage batteries, and

warp or melt certain plastics.

• Do not store the device in cold

areas. When the device returns to

its normal temperature, moisture

can form inside the device and

damage electronic circuit boards.

• Do not attempt to open the

device.

• Do not drop, knock, or shake the

device. Rough handling can break

internal circuit boards and fine

mechanics.

• Do not use harsh chemicals,

cleaning solvents, or strong

detergents to clean the device.

• Do not paint the device. Paint can

clog the moving parts and prevent

proper operation.

All of the above suggestions apply

equally to your device, battery,

charger, or any enhancement. If any

device is not working properly, take it

to the nearest authorized service

facility for service.
