1. Introduction
With the Nokia Speakerphone HF-300 you can make and receive
hands-free calls. You can connect the speakerphone to a compatible
mobile device that supports Bluetooth wireless technology.
Read this user guide carefully before using the speakerphone. Also read
the user guide for the device that you connect to the speakerphone,
which provides important safety and maintenance information. Keep all
accessories and enhancements out of reach of small children.
■ Bluetooth wireless technology
Bluetooth wireless technology allows you to connect compatible
devices without cables. In a Bluetooth connection, the mobile device
and the speakerphone should be within 10 meters (33 feet) of each
other. Connections can be subject to interference from obstructions,
such as other electronic devices.
The speakerphone is compliant with the Bluetooth Specification 2.0
supporting the Hands-Free Profile 1.5. Check with the manufacturers of
other devices to determine their compatibility with this device.
There may be restrictions on using Bluetooth technology in some
locations. Check with your local authorities or service provider.

speakerphone.
2. Connect the charger to the power source. For example, connect the
DC-4 charger to the cigarette lighter socket of your car or the AC-5
charger to a wall outlet.
If you use a charger that is connected to the cigarette lighter socket,
power must be supplied by a 12-volt car battery. Ensure that the
charger is properly inserted in the cigarette lighter socket and does
not interfere with the normal operation of the car. In some car
models, the cigarette lighter socket is powered by the car battery
even when you remove the ignition key. In those cases, the car
battery might be discharged even if the speakerphone is not used.
Contact the vehicle manufacturer for more information.
The red indicator light is continuously on while charging. It may take
a while before charging starts. If charging does not start, disconnect
the charger, plug it in again, and retry. Charging the battery fully
may take up to 2 hours and 30 minutes.
3. When the battery is fully charged, the red indicator light turns green.
Disconnect the charger from the speakerphone and the power
source.
The fully charged battery has power for up to 20 hours of talk time or up
to 240 hours of standby time. However, the times may vary when used

4. Battery information
■ Charging and discharging
Your device is powered by a rechargeable battery. The battery can be charged and
discharged hundreds of times, but it will eventually wear out. When the talk and
standby times are noticeably shorter than normal, replace the battery. Use only
Nokia approved batteries, and recharge your battery only with Nokia approved
chargers designated for this device.
If a replacement battery is being used for the first time or if the battery has not
been used for a prolonged period, it may be necessary to connect the charger,
then disconnect and reconnect it to begin charging the battery.
Unplug the charger from the electrical plug and the device when not in use. Do
not leave a fully charged battery connected to a charger, since overcharging may
shorten its lifetime. If left unused, a fully charged battery will lose its charge over
time.
Use the battery only for its intended purpose. Never use any charger or battery
that is damaged.
Do not short-circuit the battery. Accidental short-circuiting can occur when a
metallic object such as a coin, clip, or pen causes direct connection of the
positive (+) and negative (-) terminals of the battery. (These look like metal strips
on the battery.) This might happen, for example, when you carry a spare battery
in your pocket or purse. Short-circuiting the terminals may damage the battery
or the connecting object.
Leaving the device in hot or cold places, such as in a closed car in summer or
winter conditions, will reduce the capacity and lifetime of the battery. Always try
to keep the battery between 15°C and 25°C (59°F and 77°F). A device with a hot
or cold battery may not work temporarily, even when the battery is fully charged.
Battery performance is particularly limited in temperatures well below freezing.
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire as they may explode. Batteries may also
explode if damaged.
Do not dismantle or shred cells or batteries. In the event of a battery leak, do not
allow the liquid to come in contact with the skin or eyes. In the event of such a
leak, flush your skin or eyes immediately with water, or seek medical help.

Care and maintenance
Your device is a product of superior design and craftsmanship and should be
treated with care. The following suggestions will help you protect your warranty
coverage.
•
Keep the device dry. Precipitation, humidity, and all types of liquids or
moisture can contain minerals that will corrode electronic circuits. If your
device does get wet, remove the battery, and allow the device to dry
completely before replacing it.
•
•
•
Do not use or store the device in dusty, dirty areas. Its moving parts and
electronic components can be damaged.
Do not store the device in hot areas. High temperatures can shorten the life of
electronic devices, damage batteries, and warp or melt certain plastics.
Do not store the device in cold areas. When the device returns to its normal
temperature, moisture can form inside the device and damage electronic
circuit boards.
•
•
Do not attempt to open the device other than as instructed in this guide.
Do not drop, knock, or shake the device. Rough handling can break internal
circuit boards and fine mechanics.
