Hotswapping the battery
Hotswapping allows you to change the battery without restarting the headset or connecting it to
a power source.
§ The headset has a front internal battery. It's intended to sustain power long enough for the
rear battery to be swapped with a freshly charged battery.
§ Make sure to swap out the battery when it still has some power. If the battery is completely
drained, the headset will turn off.
§ Hotswapping requires an additional battery (sold separately).
1. Take off the headset.
2. Remove the battery. See Removing the battery from the headset on page 22.
3. Attach your spare battery to the headset. See Attaching the battery to the headset on page
14.
4. Put the headset back on. The headset will resume where you left off.
Make sure to charge the original battery after you change it out.
