Bluetooth Operation

Making Calls

Once the Z300 is successfully paired with your mobile phone, you can use it to make and receive calls. The Z300 can be 
used with voice dialing if your phone supports this function.

· Using voice dialing (depends on phone capabilities). 
 

Press and hold the Bluetooth button for 3 seconds until you hear a tone—then release. The voice recognition prompt in

  your phone will now be activated. Say the name of the phone number or person whom you want to call. You can exit the voice
  recognition state at any time by pressing the Bluetooth Button for 3 seconds.

· Using mobile phone keys to make a call. 
 

Dial the number on the mobile phone as normal. Once the call has been placed, the sound will automatically be transmitted 

  to the Z300.

· Redial (depends on phone capabilities). 
 

Double-click Bluetooth button. You will hear two tones, and the last number called will be dialed.

· Muting the microphone. 
 

During a call, the Z300 microphone muting can be toggled by pressing the Mic Mute button. You

  will hear a low-pitched tone, indicating that the mic is muted. To release from muting, press the Mic Mute button again. You
  will hear a high-pitched tone, indicating that the mic is active.

· Adjusting Bluetooth volume. 
 

Use the Bluetooth Volume Up and Down buttons to control the audio level during the call. 

 

NOTE: Some mobile phones may not have a redial or voice recognition function. If a phone does not have a redial function,

  then a double-click of the Bluetooth button will initiate the voice recognition state instead. If a phone does not have  
  either function, then a double-click or 3-second press of the Bluetooth Button will have no effect.

 

NOTE: Game or other PC audio will automatically be lowered during the call. 

  Receiving Calls

  When the Z300 Bluetooth is powered on and there is an incoming call you will hear a musical chime. You have three options
  when an incoming call is received:

· Answer call. 

Press the Bluetooth button once to accept the call. Press it again to end a call. A tone is heard in the earpiece

  each time you answer or end a call.

· Reject call. 

Press and hold the Bluetooth button for three seconds until you hear a beep. The call is sent directly to your  

  voicemail.

· Do nothing. 
 

The 

“incoming call chime”

 will sound until your phone sends the caller to voicemail.
