Receiving a call

You can enjoy a hands-free call with a smartphone or mobile phone that supports the BLUETOOTH profile HFP (Hands-free Profile) or HSP (Headset Profile), via a BLUETOOTH connection.

  • If your smartphone or mobile phone supports both HFP and HSP, set it to HFP.
  • Operations may vary depending on the smartphone or mobile phone. Refer to the operating instructions supplied with your smartphone or mobile phone.

Ring tone

When an incoming call arrives, a ring tone will be heard from the headset.

The ring tone varies in the following ways, depending on your smartphone or mobile phone.

  • Ring tone set on the headset
  • Ring tone set on the smartphone or mobile phone
  • Ring tone set on the smartphone or mobile phone only for a BLUETOOTH connection
  1. Connect the headset to a smartphone or mobile phone beforehand.
  2. When you hear a ring tone, press the multi-function button on the headset and receive the call.

    When an incoming call arrives even while you are listening to music, playback pauses and a ring tone will be heard from the headset.

    If no ring tone is heard via the headset

    • The headset may not be connected with the smartphone or mobile phone with HFP or HSP. Check the connection status on the smartphone or mobile phone.
    • If playback does not pause automatically, operate the headset to pause playback.
  3. Press the multi-function button to adjust the volume.
    • Increase volume: Press the multi-function button 2 times consecutively, holding the button down at the second push ().
    • Decrease volume: Press the multi-function button 3 times consecutively, holding the button down at the third push ().
  4. To end the call, press the multi-function button on the headset again.

    If you were listening to music when the call arrived, playback will resume when the call ends.

Note

  • Depending on the smartphone or mobile phone, playback may not resume automatically even if you finish the call.
  • Use a smartphone or mobile phone at least 50 cm (19 3/4 in.) away from the headset. Noise may result if the headset and the smartphone or mobile phone are too close.

Hint

  • When you adjust the volume, press the button 2 or 3 times with short intervals between each press (about 0.4 seconds) so the operations will be recognized as being consecutive.
  • Some smartphones or mobile phones have handset use priority when receiving a call. In the case of the HFP or HSP connection, switch the call device to the headset by holding the multi-function button down for about 2 seconds or by using your smartphone or mobile phone.
  • Volume during a call and volume during music playback can be adjusted independently. Changing call volume does not change the volume of music playback, and vice versa.
  • If you adjust the volume on the headset when not talking, the music playback volume is adjusted.
