Steps to BLUETOOTH function

To listen to music played, or make a call on a BLUETOOTH smartphone or mobile phone, you must establish a BLUETOOTH connection between the headset and the BLUETOOTH device.
There are following 2 ways to establish a BLUETOOTH connection:

  • One-touch connection (NFC): You can connect the headset with a device by one touch using the NFC function. [Details]

  • Paring the headset with a BLUETOOTH device by operating the BLUETOOTH device [Details]

In the case of the one-touch connection, you can perform steps 1 and 2 below by a one-touch operation.

  1. Register (pair) a BLUETOOTH device (smartphone, mobile phone, etc.) and the headset with each other.

  1. Use the BLUETOOTH device to make a BLUETOOTH connection.

Compatible BLUETOOTH Profiles:

  • A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile): Transmitting or receiving audio content of high-quality.

  • AVRCP (Audio Video Remote Control Profile): Controlling A/V equipment; pausing, stopping, starting playback, etc.

Notes

  • To use the BLUETOOTH function, the BLUETOOTH device to be connected requires the same profile as that of the headset. Even if the device has the same profile, functions may vary depending on the specifications.

  • Due to the characteristic of BLUETOOTH wireless technology, the sound played on the headset is slightly delayed from the sound played on the BLUETOOTH device during talking on the telephone or listening to the music.

  • Do not use the BLUETOOTH function on an airplane. The radio waves may cause malfunction of the airplane and result in hazardous accidents.
