Or: > To accept the call click the Command button once. > To reject the call double click the Command button. During a call, click the Command button to end the call. Volume Control Use the volume rocker: > Push up for volume up. Volume > Push down for volume down. Rocker Note: See the next section for advice if you wear the Q3 in your left ear. Wearing the Q3 in your Left Ear? The Q3 volume controls are set by default for users wearing the earpiece in their right ear. 12

If you prefer to wear your earpiece in your left ear, follow these simple steps to swap the volume orientation so that you can still push up for volume up and down for volume down: 1. Put the Q3 in your left ear. 2. Hold down the Command button, and push and hold the volume rocker in the up position. Hold both buttons together for about 3 seconds. If you want to switch back, put the Q3 back in your right ear and repeat this procedure. Note: If you reset your earpiece, it reverts to the default volume control orientation (right ear). Changing the Ear Bud Your Q3 is supplied with a choice of ear buds in different sizes so that you can choose the one that fits best. If you want to change the ear bud, remove the attached one by gently lifting it away from the Q3. Gently press the replacement ear bud onto the Q3 and push it firmly to secure it in place. 13

Using 2 Phones (Multipoint) Up to 2 devices can connect to the earpiece at the same time. If either phone rings, you can answer it with the earpiece. Use the Pair Me command to put your Q3 back into pairing mode to pair another phone. Any currently connected phone will be disconnected during pairing, so you will need to reconnect afterwards. Which Phone is Used for Calls? When you have two phones connected you can always answer an incoming call from either phone. If you initiate a call through the earpiece (for example by saying Phone Commands) then the call takes place on the primary phone: the one that connected to the earpiece first. Call Waiting and Conferencing* If you receive an incoming call while you are already on a call the Q3 will play a tone to alert you. 14

To Do This End the active call and Click the Command button answer the incoming call Keep the active call, reject Double click the Command the incoming call button Put the active call on hold, Hold the Command button answer the incoming call for about 1 second Switch between the active Hold the Command button and held call for about 1 second Conference the active and Hold the Command button held call for about 3 seconds If you are using multipoint you can also use these controls to switch between calls on both phones. Note: You can only conference together calls received on the same phone (although you can have conference calls running on both phones at the same time). * To use these features, your phone and network must support call waiting and call conferencing. 15

Listening to Audio The Q3 supports A2DP audio streaming. If your phone supports the A2DP profile then simply start playing music or any other audio (including turn-by-turn directions from a GPS application on your phone) and it will automatically transfer to the earpiece. If the phone rings the audio will mute. You can use your voice to answer or ignore the call. Or: > Click the Command button to accept the call. > Double click the Command button to ignore the call. The audio will resume when the call ends. If you want to exit A2DP streaming mode to do something else: > Click the Command button to activate the Q3’s voice control feature. If you do not say one of the Q3’s voice commands within a few seconds the music will resume playing; or > Double click the Command button to activate your phone’s voice dialing feature (if available). 16

Reset the Q3 If you are having problems with the Q3, you can reset it and start again. Resetting the Q3 will clear all the stored pairing settings, reset the volume orientation to the default and put the device back into pairing mode. To reset the Q3: 1. Delete any existing pairing information from your phone and turn the phone off and back on again to clear the phone memory. 2. Make sure the Q3 is switched on but not connected to any phones. 3.
