• Headset When you plug a headset into the headset jack on the right side of the handset, audio is
automatically routed through it. The headset jack is unavailable when the handset is docked in the
Dual Charger (DCA39). The headset jack accepts a four-conductor 2.5mm TRS plug.
• Bluetooth If the system administrator enables Bluetooth capability, the Bluetooth option will
display on the Settings menu. You must pair and then connect Bluetooth devices before you can
hear audio through the headset.
Pairing and Using a Bluetooth Headset
Bluetooth devices vary. The following instructions are intended as a guide, and may not
apply to your Bluetooth device.
To pair your Bluetooth headset with your handset:
1 Turn on the handset. Navigate to Settings > Basic Settings > Bluetooth. You must first turn
Bluetooth on, and then pair and connect the headset.
2 Select the Bluetooth On Off option and turn Bluetooth on. When Bluetooth is turned on, the
Bluetooth icon displays in the status bar.
3 Place the Bluetooth headset in discovery mode. To put the Bluetooth in discovery mode, remove
the headset and hold down the answer/end button. The indicator light will flash blue for several
seconds before glowing a solid blue color. See the manufacturer’s instructions for pairing if you
have any difficulty with this step. You can usually find instructions on the Web.
