Introduction to Bluetooth

What is Bluetooth?
Bluetooth provides a way for devices like cellular
or cordless phones, laptops and personal
computers to communicate wirelessly.
Your uDirect 2 supports Bluetooth to allow audio
to be wirelessly received from many different
audio devices and transmitted to your hearing
aids. For example, you can receive phone calls
directly to your hearing aids or listen to a TV show
via the uTV 2.

What Bluetooth devices can I use with my
uDirect 2?
First, check whether the device you wish to use
is Bluetooth-enabled: Look for the following
symbol on the device or in its user guide.
Second, the possible applications on a Bluetooth
enabled device are defined by "profiles". The
device you wish to use with your uDirect 2 must

support the appropriate Bluetooth profiles.
These differ depending on what you want to
do with your uDirect 2:
To receive phone calls your phone must
support either the "Head Set" or "Hands
Free" profile (HSP/HFP)

Headset" profile.

Look for this information in your phone's user
