  • Check if the headset cable is securely connected to the intercom unit.
  • Ensure the volume is not set to minimum.

  • Ensure the intercom is in pairing mode (rapidly flashing indicator light).
  • Make sure Bluetooth is enabled on your phone and it's discoverable.
  • Move closer to the device you are trying to pair with.
  • Clear previous pairing records on both devices and try pairing again.

  • The stated range is for ideal environments; actual performance may vary.
• Poor microphone quality/noise:
