How to place a Motorola HS 850 bluetooth headset into paring mode:
- Close the boom to turn the unit off.
- Hold down the call button until the blue light comes on.
- While holding down the call button, swing the boom open.
- (Now you can let go of the call button.)
The headset is now in pairing mode, and you can search for it using your phone. When it asks for a PIN, use 0000.
Thanx!! U R a lifesaver!!
Wow…this made it so easy. You solved an argument betwen hubby and I when we couldn’t agree how to pair the headset!!! Thanks so much!!!!!
OMG, thanks for your instructions! I ended up buying a new bluetooth cuz I was having a hard time pairing my HS850. Now I can return the bluetooth and save some money. Thanks a bunch!
your instructions really helped me, i had been trying to install the bluetooth to my cell phone for 2 days until i saw these instructions it only took me less than a minute to pair up the devices and install.
Good Job Man, good Directions!!!

I work at a Bell store and one customer of mine had trouble pairing it. These instructions are simple and easy to follow… Plus I didn’t look like an idiot
Thanks again!

California has recently passed a law making it illegal to operate a vehicle and use you phone so now I got my bluetooth crankin. Thanks again!
