Before you can use the
Bluetooth
®
headset with any device, such as a PS3™ system or a mobile phone, the headset must be paired with
the desired device.
You can pair your headset in either of two ways:
•
Automatic mode (using the supplied USB cable)—Enables the headset’s advanced features for the PS3™ system. Using automatic
mode, you can pair (register) the headset with any PS3™ system, but only the most recently paired PS3™ system will be saved in the
headset’s list of paired devices. (For more information, see “Connecting your headset to
Bluetooth
®
devices.”)
•
Bluetooth
®
discovery mode—Sets up the headset as a standard
Bluetooth
®
headset. Using
Bluetooth
®
discovery mode, you can pair the
headset with many other
Bluetooth
®
devices. The eight most recently paired devices are saved in the headset’s list of paired devices.
(For more information, see “Connecting your headset to
Bluetooth
®
devices.”)
Hints:
The headset’s advanced features for the PS3™ system are available only when you use the automatic mode to pair the headset
with the PS3™ system.
The system software for the PS3™ system must be version 2.50 (or later) to access the advanced features.
Pairing with the PS3™ system: automatic mode
You must use the USB cable to pair your headset using the PS3™ system automatic mode.
1
Check that the PS3™ system is turned on.
2
Check that the PS3™ system software is version 2.50 or later. If you have an earlier version, you need to update the software before you
can use the automatic mode for pairing.
3
Insert the mini-B connector of the supplied USB cable directly into the USB connector on your headset. Insert the other end of the cable
into a USB connector on the PS3™ system.
The power indicator on the headset lights up in solid green for two seconds to indicate that the headset and the PS3™ system have been paired.
