Answering and Making Calls with the Headset

Some Bluetooth headsets support an auto-answer protocol, which will, as it sounds,
automatically answer incoming calls and send them right to the headset. This is very
helpful when driving or in other situations where you should not be looking at your
BlackBerry to answer the call. Sometimes, you will need to push a button---- - usually just
one---- - to answer your call from the headset.

Option 1: Answering Directly from the Headset

When a call comes into your BlackBerry, you should hear an audible beep in the
headset. Just press the multifunction button on your headset to answer the call. Press
the multifunction button when the call ends to disconnect.

Option 2: Transferring the Caller to the Headset

When the phone call comes into your BlackBerry, press
the Menu key.
Select Activate (your Bluetooth headset name), and the
call will be sent to the selected headset. In this image, the
headset name is Jawbone.
