1. Introduction
The Wireless Headset HDW-3 can be connected without wires to a compatible
phone that supports Bluetooth wireless technology. This gives you complete
freedom for making and receiving calls while on the move or at the office.
Read this user’s guide carefully before using the headset. More detailed
information is provided by your phone's own user's guide. Do not use this Wireless
Headset (HDW-3) user’s guide in place of the user’s guide for your phone, which
provides important safety and maintenance information.
■ Bluetooth wireless technology
Since Bluetooth devices communicate using radio waves, your Bluetooth phone
and headset do not need to be in a line of sight. The two devices only need to be
within a maximum of 10 meters of each other, although the connection can be
subject to interference from obstructions, such as walls, or from other electronic
devices.
The headset is specially designed for Nokia phones that support Bluetooth
wireless technology. The headset can, however, be used with any compatible
Bluetooth devices that support the Handsfree or Headset profile. (Here, "Profile"
means a set of Bluetooth commands that your phone uses for controlling the
headset.)
Copyright ©2004 Nokia Mobile Phones. All rights reserved.
5
The headset provides the best performance when it is used with a compatible
Nokia phone. If you use the headset with a phone produced by another
manufacturer, all the functions described in this user’s guide may not be available.
In some countries, there may be restrictions on using Bluetooth devices. Check
with your local authorities.
■ Chargers and batteries
Check the model number of any charger before use with this device. The Wireless Headset
HDW-3 is intended for use with the following chargers: ACP-7, ACP-8, ACP-9, ACP-12 and
LCH-12.
Warning! Use only batteries and chargers approved by Nokia for use with this
particular accessory. The use of any other types will invalidate any approval or
warranty, and may be dangerous.
For availability of approved batteries and chargers, please check with your dealer.
When you disconnect the power cord of any enhancement, grasp and pull the plug, not the
cord.
■ The card in the sales package
The card contains the Bluetooth passcode 0000 you need for pairing your phone
with the headset. Keep this card in a secure place.
For instructions on using the passcode, see Taking the headset into use for the
first time on page 12.

tag. The phone plays the voice tag and dials the related phone number.
You can also activate voice dialling with your phone. For details on voice dialling,
see the user’s guide of your phone. Note that this functionality is only available if
your phone supports voice dialling.

Copyright ©2004 Nokia Mobile Phones. All rights reserved.
20
■ Using the headset with several phones
Before the headset can be used with your phone, the phone has to be paired with
the headset. The headset can be paired with up to 8 phones but connected to only
one phone at a time.
Using the headset with several paired phones
The phone that was first paired with the headset is called the "default phone". The
phone that was last used with the headset is called the "last used phone".
If the headset is switched on within 10 metres of several paired phones, the
headset will try to connect to the "default phone" within a few seconds.
If the headset cannot connect to the "default phone" (because, for example, it is
switched off or its user rejects the connection), the headset tries to connect to the
"last used phone" within a few seconds.
If the headset cannot connect to either of the phones, it remains discoverable for
other phones.
If you want to use the headset with a paired phone that is not a "default phone" or
"last used phone", make the connection in the Bluetooth menu of your phone.
■ Resetting the headset
You can reset the headset to the original settings to, for example, change the
default user of the headset.
When you reset the headset, all of its settings, including pairing information, are
cleared.

4. Battery information
Your headset is powered by a rechargeable battery. Take good care of the battery
and follow the guidelines below.
Charging and discharging
•
•
•
The full performance of a new battery is achieved only after two or three complete
charge and discharge cycles.
The battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of times but it will eventually wear
out. When the operating time is noticeably shorter than normal, buy a new battery.
Use only Nokia approved batteries, and recharge your battery only with Nokia approved
chargers designated for this device. Unplug the charger from the electrical plug and the
device when not in use. Do not leave the battery connected to a charger. Overcharging
may shorten its lifetime. If left unused, a fully charged battery will lose its charge over
time.
•
•
Temperature extremes can affect the ability of your battery to charge.
To prolong battery life of NiMh batteries, discharge the battery from time to time by
leaving your headset switched on until it turns itself off. Do not attempt to discharge the
battery by any other means.
•
•
Use the battery only for its intended purpose. Never use any charger or battery that is
damaged.
Leaving the headset in hot or cold places, such as in a closed car in summer or winter
conditions, will reduce the capacity and lifetime of the battery. Always try to keep the
battery between 15°C and 25°C (59°F and 77°F). A headset with a hot or cold battery
Copyright ©2004 Nokia Mobile Phones. All rights reserved.
23
may not work temporarily, even when the battery is fully charged. Battery performance
is particularly limited in temperatures well below freezing.
•
Warning: Use only approved batteries (Nokia battery part number 0774291).
Non-approved batteries may explode. Do not dispose of batteries in a fire! Dispose of
batteries according to local regulations. Please recycle when possible. Do not dispose as
household waste.

Care and maintenance
Your headset is a product of superior design and craftsmanship and should be treated with
care. The suggestions below will help you protect your warranty coverage.
•
•
Keep all accessories and enhancements out of the reach of small children.
Keep the headset dry. Precipitation, humidity and all types of liquids or moisture can
contain minerals that will corrode electronic circuits. If your device does get wet, remove
the battery and allow the device to dry completely before replacing it.
•
•
•
Do not use or store the headset in dusty, dirty areas. Its moving parts and electronic
components can be damaged.
Do not store the headset in hot areas. High temperatures can shorten the life of
electronic devices, damage batteries, and warp or melt certain plastics.
Do not store the headset in cold areas. When the device returns to its normal
temperature, moisture can form inside the device and damage electronic circuit boards.
•
•
Do not attempt to open the headset other than as instructed in this guide.
Do not drop, knock, or shake the headset. Rough handling can break internal circuit
boards and fine mechanics.
•
•
Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to clean the headset.
Do not paint the headset. Paint can clog the moving parts and prevent proper operation.
If the headset is not working properly, take it to the nearest authorized service facility for
service.
