01	What is Bluetooth® wireless technology?

Bluetooth® wireless technology is a worldwide specification for a small-form factor, low-cost radio solution that provides links between mobile computers, mobile phones, other portable handheld devices, and connectivity to the Internet. The specification is developed, published and promoted by the Bluetooth® Special Interest Group (SIG).

A profile is something like a driver so if 2 devices don't have the same driver, they couldn't communicate to each together.

The Headset profile provides the following features: Accept incoming call, terminate a call, audio connection transfer during an active call, voice recognition. Headset profile is basic but sufficient for a standard usage. However, some of the mobiles does not support headset profile, like Nokia 3650, 6600, N-gage, 7610, 6260, 6670 etc., you will then have to choose the mobile setting to work under Handsfree profile.

Handsfree profile provide more functions like redial and reject a call. Bluetrek's Bluetooth® headset support both headset and handsfree profiles and can work with most of the Bluetooth® mobiles in the market.

1. Make sure that you are within the 10-meters limit and that there are not too many obstacles. You may be too close to other radio wave interferences (the headset has an emission power of 2.5mWatt which is 400 times weaker than a normal mobile phone).
2. Move away from all possible sources of interference like a microwave oven, wireless keyboard or Wi-Fi which may operate with the 2.4 GHz technology (same frequency as Bluetooth®).
3. Don't put your mobile on the opposite side of the headset. For example, if you put your mobile in your right pocket, you should put your headset on the right ear. Otherwise, the signal is blocked by your body and especially by your brain because microwaves are very sensitive to water (your body is full of water).

Please make sure your headset is fully charged. Delete the current connection in your phone and pair again. The problem should be solved.

Please check the following conditions:

• If you hear the echo from your side, it may be the problem of either your phone operator or the phone from the person who is calling you.
• If the person you are talking with hears echo, then try to adjust the headset's volume.

Although our Bluetooth® headsets are designed to work with mobile phones, it is also compatible with other Bluetooth® enabled devices such as PDAs & computers that support Headset and / or Hands-free profile. However, we do not guarantee the performance due to different computer systems and adapter used.

Nevertheless, we can give you a few tips if you want to use your Bluetooth® headset for computer:

• (If your PC does not support Bluetooth®) Make sure your PC is connected to a fully qualified Bluetooth® USB adapter which supports either Audio Gateway headset profile or handsfree profile.
• (If your PC supports Bluetooth®) Check if your PC has Bluetooth® stack which is able to support the voice profiles like headset or handsfree profile.
• Make sure your PC have a special application enable the Bluetooth® to handle commands like take a call or hang up.
• Double check with your retailer and ask for demonstration.
• Never forget to study the manual before use.

No. Our Bluetooth® headsets can only work with voice profile (headset and handsfree profile) but not data profile (eg: document / Jpeg / MP3). That means you can use the headset for your Skype, MSN or internet phone but cannot transfer a photo or a song to your devices.

All Bluetrek headsets can send a command to the mobile to activate voice recognition function. However, voice recognition has nothing related with the headset; it really depends on the phone capability. That is why if you want to use the voice recognition function from the headset, you have to first make sure your mobile supports voice recognition.

DSP is the short form of Digital Signal Processing. DSP technology can reduce noise and cancel echo on the headset.
