CONNECT TO YOUR PHONE
“Pairing” is the set-up process of
introducing your headset to your
phone. Before using your headset
for the first time, you must pair
it with your Bluetooth-enabled
phone.
“Multipoint” lets you pair this
headset with two phones so you
can answer a call from either
phone.
1. READY
FirstTime,RightOutoftheBox
Turn on the headset. The LED
flashes red/white to indicate
pairing mode.
PairNeworSecondPhone
Turn on headset. Press Call
button until the LED flashes red/
white.
2. SET
Activate the Bluetooth feature
on your phone, then use phone
menus to “add,” “search” or “scan”
new Bluetooth devices.
For Example:
iPhone: Settings > General >
Bluetooth: On (starts the search
for devices)
BlackBerry®: Settings/options >
Bluetooth: On > Search for devices
Android™: Settings > Wireless &
Networks > Bluetooth: On > Scan
for devices
3. CONNECT
Select “PLT_M55” from the list of
Bluetooth devices shown on your
phone.
If phone asks for a passcode, enter
four zeros (0000). You may see ****
on screen.
Some phones also ask to confirm
headset connection after pairing.
Headset LED will stop flashing red/
white once successfully paired/
connected.
You can now make a call using your
phone’s keypad or voice-dialing
feature.
For Right Ear
For Left Ear
TRY IT ON
The loop of the gel eartip tucks into the back
curve of your ear for a stable fit.
Try on the headset. The eartip is positioned to
suit most people, but you may want to rotate
it to best fit your left or right ear.
The gel eartip and speaker click into matching
grooves so the eartip doesn’t move out of
place during use.
For best voice pickup, always check that the
headset points towards the corner of your
mouth.
TIPS
Stay Near Your Phone
Bluetooth has a working “range” of up to 33
feet between the phone and headset before
audio degrades and the connection is lost.
Try DeepSleep
If you leave your headset powered on but out
of range from your paired phone for more than
90 minutes, your headset will conserve its bat-
tery power by entering into DeepSleep mode.
This power-saving mode keeps your headset
charged for up to 5 months so it’s ready when
you need it.
Once back in range with your phone, tap the
Call button to exit DeepSleep mode. If your
phone is also ringing, tap the Call button again
to answer your call.
Know How to Reconnect
Your headset tries to reconnect a lost
connection. If it can’t, then tap the Call button
once or manually reconnect via the phone’s
Bluetooth device menu.
If your headset remains out of range for more
than 90 minutes, the DeepSleep mode will acti-
vate.
Turn Off Voice Commands
If you prefer not to use the voice-answer fea-
ture, you can disable it and just use the Call
button.
With the headset powered on, simultaneously
press the Call button and Volume button until
you see the white LED flash twice. To reactivate
the feature, just repeat the steps and you will
see the white LED flash twice.
Use an iPhone to Check Headset Battery
An icon representing the battery level of your
headset is automatically displayed on-screen
beside the phone’s battery level icon.
Listen to Music and More
If your phone also has the Bluetooth “A2DP”
stereo music feature, then your music,
podcasts, favorite internet radio and other
streaming audio can be heard through this
headset.
Use Multipoint One Call at a Time
Once you have activated multipoint and paired
your two phones, it’s easy to answer calls from
either phone.
When already on a call, you will hear a ringtone
notification of the incoming call from the
second paired phone.
To answer a second call from the other phone,
you must end the current call (tap Call button)
so new call automatically answers.
If you choose not to answer the second call, it
will go to voicemail.
