First off, is you cell phone Blue Tooth compatable? If so, that setting must be on before you try to start up the headset. Then, make sure the headset is charged up. When this is done, push and hold the button on the side of the earpiece untill you hear the tones, and when they stop, let go of the button, and the phone and headset should be connected. I too had a little trouble figuring this out when I first tried to connect. If you still can't connect, I'd talk with the dealer for your phone next. If that doesn't work, you should contact Amazon by going to their "Let Us Help You" section and click on "Help". First off, is you cell phone Blue Tooth compatable?

You have to make sure that other devices that are paired with the phone is turned off while you are pairing

When I hooked mine up it just worked out of the box. If you have not figured out the problem, check the settings on your phone, more specifically those regarding bluetooth devices. Other than that I say the manufacture or seller will need to make it right.

Hi, I've had a hard time finding a useful headset that will work with the phone and the device at the same time. Every product that I have used has not worked.

I don't see how you could pair it with a headset. Why would you want to do this as opposed to pairing with the audio output device.

I had the same problem. I keep messing with it and it finally paired. I also moved my cell phone to another room, because I thought it might be the problem...not sure.

I am afraid as others, I have had compatibility issues. There is a narrow list of headsets that are compatible, which I found out after I purchased the item. There is an even narrower compatibility with wireless headsets. I would do what I failed to do before I purchased the item, contact Plantronics support and asked them about your headset directly. They will be happy to give you an answer. The advertising is very vague about compatibility and you cannot find a list of compatible headsets on their website. However, their customer service department as well aware of what headsets will work and will not work. Thanks!

From what I know, you can hold down the SCAN button on your headsets (which is the big square button in the middle of the control panel) until it makes a sound which means its detecting and then press SCAN on your phone at the same time so that it can pair with one another. That should work.

If your phone has BLUETOOTH capability, you should have no problem with 'PAIRING" Your device. You can check your Phone and see if you have what it takes to Use such headphone. Look into your settings on "YOUR" phone and check for BLUETOOTH "option" If you can turn BLUETOOTH on, You Should be Good..... I really hopes this helps.

Do you mean the headset or the handset? There is a procedure to initially connect whichever it is. have you tried that? it's in the instruction manual. I can't specifically answer your question.

Try to use normal pair protocol (turn on the units, then hold down the button for a few seconds until the light begins to flash rapidly), and see if they connect. Be sure there aren't any other Bluetooth units on nearby). I've never tried to pair headsets, but I think they may have to have some sort of router. If you don't have the manual on the headsets, try searching the manufacturer's website for one, or look for a discussion forum specific to that brand.

I do not know if the headset needs to be plug in to the phone jack. I do not use one. Have you tried the directions?

if you got the cable that went with it, try that. or buy a recharge cable (if possible) for it and try again to pair.

The headset is defective. Don't waste time to try to make it work. Call Motorola and tell them that the headset doesn't work. They will arrange to ship you a new phone set (the same model). This happened to me and Motorola customer service was very helpful. I even asked them how they could ensure that the new set they send me would be in working order. The rep said that they are supposed to test it before they send it to me. The new phone set works perfectly fine (effortlessly).

I don't see a headset jack on the handsets at all. The was a time long ago that I would have looked for that but never thought about it when I bought these.I don't think you can pair any type of headset to these phones. The retro handset has no purpose that I can think of, aside from maybe trying to sell it on ebay, if I can remember where I put it.

You mean how to turn the headset Bluetooth on? To answer this question, if you turn on the headset's switch the Bluetooth automatically turns on, you now need to turn on the cell phone's Bluetooth, press the bottom of "search device"(mean search the headset) and then press "pairing". Now you can hear the music or answer the phone call. Please let us know if you still have any questions. Thanks!

This worked for me also. I accidentally missed step 3, but it found the headset anyway. I had trouble getting it to connect (right click on headset in bluetooth device menu -> Control then pushing the connect button), but after a couple off/on cycles of the headset and hitting the connect button after turning on, it finally connected and now I have music playing. Thanks to OP for solution.

It can sometimes take a few tries which will be frustrating. This is especially true if your receiver is already paired with another device (even if not currently connected), but make sure it is not connected because this can prevent pairing altogether. For example if you are using an iPhone as well turn the bluetooth off on your iPhone. Then I suggest you turn off both the headset and the transmitter, then turn hour headset on and wait 2-6 seconds for it to enter pairing mode then turn the transmitter on. Repeat a few times if necessary. Good luck. It hasn't failed me yet.
