Move closer to the wireless adapter to restore clear audio. 1 EN Package Contents and Features Volume Up Status Lights Play/Pause Microphone Volume Down Track Skip Forward/ Fast Forward Power On/Off Status Lights Connect/Pair Wireless Adapter Mute Microphone 2 Charging Your Headset Using the USB Charger Before using your headset for the first time, charge it for at least one hour. A full charge takes approximately three hours. 1 Connect the charger cable to the headset. 2 Plug the charger into the USB port on your computer. While your headset is charging the indicator glows red. When your headset is fully charged, the indicator turns off. Note Charging time depends on the amount of power your USB device provides. CHARgINg TIMe 3-4 hours ................ Full charge 1 hour ..................... Minimum charge before first use 3 EN 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 status light turns off. Do not use your headset while it is connected to the charger. 2 Connect the wireless adapter to a USB port on your computer. Your computer and USB hub (if using) should be turned on. 3 After removing your headset from the charger, press the Power button 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. 4 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 and Connect buttons on the headset and adapter for 4 seconds. The status 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 status 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. 5 EN Headset Controls Adjust volume Increase: Press + Decrease: Press - Minimum volume: Continually press - Mute speakers: Press WARNING Do not use headsets at high volumes for an extended period of time.

RF Exposure Requirements for FCC ID: AL8-995USB02 Requirements: §1.1307(b)(1) and §1.1307(b)(2): Systems operating under the provisions of this section shall be operated in a manner that ensures that the public is not exposed to radio frequency energy levels in excess of the Commission’s Guidelines. Limits: §1.1310: As specified in this section, the Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) Limit shall be used to evaluate the environmental impact to human exposure to radiofrequency (RF) radiation as specified in Sec 1.1307(b), except in the case of portable devices which shall be evaluated according to the provisions of Sec. 2.1093 of this Chapter. Limit for Uncontrolled exposure: 1 mW/cm 2 or 10 W/m 2 MPE Calculation: Equation from page 18 of OET 65, Edition 97-01 S = PG /( 4R 2 ) where, S = Power Density (W/m 2 ) P = Power Input to antenna ( 0.003Watts) G = Antenna Gain, in numeric ( 4 dBi; 2.511 numeric) R = distance to the center of radiation of the antenna (0.2 m) S = 0.003W*2.511 / (4*3.14*(0.2m) 2 ) = 0.014 W/m 2 EUT complies with 20cm distance exposure.
