Incorporating sophisticated 'Text-to Speech' software; the Supertooth 3 represents the very latest in Bluetooth sun-visor speakerphone technology. Its outstanding audio quality is a result of advanced Digital Signal Processing software to eliminate noise and achieve echo cancellation, regardless of whether the car is stationary or travelling at high speed. It also adjusts sound levels to compensate for loud engine noise or external noise created when the windows are wound down.

The device requires no installation and is quickly and easily installed and connected to your mobile phone. Simply slide the metal clip onto your sun-visor and attach the Supertooth 3 via the magnets on the rear of the device. The voice prompts provide guidance and assistance to help pair the device and upload your mobile phone's address book. When a call is received, the Supertooth 3 announces the incoming caller's name or number. Simply say 'OK' to accept the call. There is no need to take your hands off the wheel or remove your eyes from the road, making the Supertooth 3 a safer and legal alternative to driving while on the phone.

Bluetooth

What is Bluetooth Wireless Technology?

Bluetooth Wireless Technology is a short-range communications technology using
encryption for high security data/voice transmission.

Is it safe to use Bluetooth devices? I have heard they can allow unauthorised
connections.

For Bluetooth security reasons, once you have set up your Bluetooth devices we
recommend turning OFF the visibility option in the Bluetooth Menu of your phone so that ther Bluetooth users cannot see the your phone. This only applies to a few (mainly older) luetooth enabled phones as most new phones have better security.

Can somebody else take control of my Supertooth 3 if they are in range?

No. The Supertooth 3 can only connect to previously paired devices that have been authorised. The Pairing procedure creates an encrypted key known only to the two devices paired.

What is the difference between Handsfree and Headset Bluetooth Profiles?

Handsfree Profile allows for extra features to be used with a mobile phone. Some features that Handsfree profile enables are voice dial, redial and call transfer. These particular features are not available using Headset profile. Handsfree Profile also allows for a slightly better call quality.

How do I know if my devices are connected?

When Bluetooth is turned ON in your phone you will see a Bluetooth symbol appear on your main screen that changes slightly (colours invert or arrows appear) when connected to the Supertooth 3. The Supertooth 3 will also announce when it connects with your phone. Some phones show a Headset or Car symbol to notify you that the devices are connected.

How far can my mobile be from the Supertooth 3 and still remain connected?

The Supertooth 3 will remain connected within a range of 10 metres (30 ft). Sound quality may start to deteriorate after about 7 metres depending on your environment.

Can other electrical devices cause interference with Bluetooth?

Bluetooth technology employs a technique called ‘frequency hopping’ to constantly change the frequency at which it sends data, thus reducing interference with wireless devices like wireless LAN’s and cordless landline phones. However, noise interference can occur if the Bluetooth device is used in close proximity with a microwave. Check if there are any such devices in the surroundings, and if so keep the distance between the Supertooth 3 and such devices to at least 5 - 10m. Usually, any interference will only cause a slight
crackling sound. The frequency of Bluetooth is much higher than that of radio station bands.

 If I cup my hand over a Bluetooth device the signal strength and quality suffers. Why does this happen?

Bluetooth signals are radio waves and do not need line of sight to operate. But, radio waves cannot travel through water and as the human body is made up of mostly water they cannot travel through it. Therefore, your hand will create a barrier causing slight interference and a loss of signal quality.

What Bluetooth mobile phones can use the Supertooth 3 handsfree?

To use the Supertooth 3 the phone must support either headset or hands free Bluetooth profiles. Some devices may only support data transmissions and not audio.

What is the difference between Bluetooth V1.2 and V2.0?

V2.0 is the current version of Bluetooth with Enhanced Data Rate (EDR) technology, with data transfer rates of up to 3Mbps compared with 1Mbps in V1.2.

Note: All BlueAnt products are forward and backward compatible (Our V1.2 products can be used with V2.0 phones and our V2.0 products can be used with V1.2 phones)
