Important Note on Wireless Range
The .Audio 995 headset has a wireless range of
up to 12 meters. However, wireless performance
may be affected by nearby objects including walls,
metal items, and other wireless devices. When you
move the headset to the edge of its wireless range,
audio may become distorted and will eventually cut
out. Move closer to the wireless adapter to restore
clear audio.

Using Your Headset
Congratulations, you can now listen to your favorite music or talk with friends and family using your new
wireless headset.
Using Your Headset
1 Make sure that your headset is fully charged. When fully charged, the red indicator light
turns off.
Do not use your headset while it is connected to the charger.
2 Plug the wireless adapter into a USB port on your computer.
Your computer and USB hub (if using) should be turned on.
NOTE When not using the headset and adapter, you can remove the adapter safely by just unplugging
it from the USB port.
3 After removing your headset from the charger, press the Power button for two seconds to
turn the headset on.
The headset and the adapter should connect immediately, and the indicator lights on both headset and
wireless adapter will be solid blue. If you cannot hear anything through your headset, try adjusting the
volume up or restarting the media application.
NOTE If steps 1 through 3 do not work, refer to “Pairing Your Headset” on page 4 to manually pair your
headset and adapter.

Pairing Your Headset
How to Manually Pair Your Headset and
Adapter
Your headset and adapter are factory pre-paired,
and should automatically connect with each
other. Should your headset and adapter become
unpaired, you can initiate pairing manually:
1 Press and hold the Power button on the
headset and the Connect button on the
adapter for 4 seconds.
The indicator lights on the headset and adapter
will rapidly flash blue.
2 The headset and adapter will automatically
attempt to pair.
If the pairing is successful the indicator lights
will glow solid blue; if unsuccessful, both
headset and adapter will stay in pairing mode.
If manual pairing was unsuccessful, and you want
to re-attempt the pairing process, you must first
take your headset and adapter out of pairing
mode.
3 Turn headset off.
4 Single press the Connect/Pair button on
the adapter, then repeat steps 1 and 2.
NOTE If your headset and adapter are separated
and lose their connection after being successfully
paired, they will automatically reconnect when
they come back into range of each other. If they
remain out of range for more than 30 seconds, the
headset will go into sleep mode, but will reconnect
automatically with the adapter once it is back in
range. If the headset is out of range for more than
15 minutes, it automatically shuts off.
