Use a phone headset
You can connect a 3.5mm headset to your smartphone for hands-free
operation. If a 3.5mm headset was not included in your smartphone
package, you can purchase one separately. You can also connect to a
wireless headset (sold separately) using Bluetooth
®
wireless technology.
WARNING If driving while using a phone is permitted in your area, we
recommend using a headset or hands-free car kit (sold separately). However, be
aware that use of a headset that covers both ears impairs your ability to hear
other sounds. Use of such a headset while operating a motor vehicle or riding a
bicycle may create a serious hazard to you and others, and may be illegal. If
you must use a stereo headset while driving, place a speaker in only one ear.
Leave the other ear free to hear outside noises, and use the headset only if it is
legal and you can do so safely.
Use a wired headset
Your smartphone works with headsets that have a 3.5mm connector (look
for three colored bands on the plug). When in doubt, ask the third-party
headset manufacturer if the product is compatible with your smartphone.
If you hear a headset buzz or poor microphone performance, your
headset may be incompatible with your smartphone.
1 Insert a 3.5mm headset into the jack on the top of your smartphone.
When you are on a call, the icon changes to .
2 The button on the headset performs different actions depending on
the headset model and what’s happening on the smartphone. Press
the button once to perform any of the following tasks supported by
your particular headset:
• Answer an incoming call.
• Respond to call waiting.
• Hang up a single active call or all calls on a conference call.
• Switch between calls if there is one active call and one call on
hold.
3 If you want to stop using the headset, do any of the following:
• To switch from the headset to your smartphone’s speakerphone:
Tap and tap Speaker.
• To switch from the wired headset to a previously paired Bluetooth
®
hands-free device: Tap and tap the device name.
TIP You don’t need an on-hold button to put a call on hold. Just tap the mute
icon to mute your end of the line.
