1. Introduction

The lanso A6 headset is a wireless headset based on the Bluetooth ® technology.

The Bluetooth ® technology is a standard for wireless short distance radio

communications. Devices like a headset and a mobile phone can communicate with
each other without wires within approximately 10 meters.

lanso A6 is a qualified Bluetooth ® headset that complies with the Bluetooth ® 1.1
protocol. It supports two profiles: Headset Profile and Hands-free profile.
It will work with any qualified Bluetooth ® device that supports the Headset profile or
the Hands-free profile.

Your lanso A6 will allow you to take a call, initiate a call (if your phone has voice
controls), and adjust volume directly on your headset, without the need to touch your
mobile phone.

The lanso A6 headset has 3 buttons:

• “TALK “Button (central button),
• 1 “VOL+ “button,
• 1 “VOL- “button.
Please refer to the picture on page 2.

 1. Charging lanso A6

Your headset is delivered uncharged. So before the first use, you must fully recharge
it for about 8 hours with the supplied charger, until the red indicator light turns off.
The use of any other charger will automatically suspend the warranty. During
subsequent charges, the charging should take approximately 2 hours.

Please connect the charger to the headset and to the mains. During the charge, the
indicator light is red, The red indicator light will turn off when the charge is complete.

When you hear a light beep in your headset at regular intervals, and the indicator
light flashes in red, your headset needs to be recharged.

To maximize battery lifetime, it is recommended to recharge your headset to full

capacity only when the battery is low, since a battery has a lifetime of about 500
charging cycles.

If you leave your headset battery empty for an extended period of time, it could
excessively discharge the battery. In this case, you may have to charge your headset
for more than 10 hours.
Do not let the battery charger remain plugged in the headset for more than 24h.

2. Pairing lanso A6

Before using the lanso A6 headset, you must pair it with your Bluetooth ® mobile
phone. Pairing is the process of linking 2 Bluetooth ® devices, so that they can

The pairing only needs to be done once. Afterwards, every time you switch on your
headset, it will automatically connect to your mobile phone. If you pair your
Bluetooth ®mobile phone with another Bluetooth ® device, you will have to pair the
lanso A6 with your phone again before use.

The profile (Headset or Hands-Free) is automatically selected by the Mobile phone

during the Pairing stage.

To initiate the pairing, put both the headset and the mobile phone within 0.3 meter (1

- your T610/618 phone will be the Primary Phone,
- your NOKIA 6230 phone will be the Secondary Phone.

All Outgoing Calls from lanso A6 are sent only to the Primary Phone.

established with the other phone which is not receiving the latest incoming call).

The multi-pairing only works with headsets which are both in the headset profile.
