Your Headset and Base Won't Pair
Problem
Your headset is seated in the wireless base but they have not paired. The headset and battery indicator LEDs
on the base flash rapidly. It should take no longer than 10–12 seconds for the headset and base to pair.

Power cycle the headset.
1. With the headset off the base, press and hold the Call button for 4 seconds until the LED on the
headset is off.
2. Seat the headset back on to the base. The headset automatically turns on and pairs with the headset base.
If the headset does not have the most recent software load, the headset will begin to update.
