Additionally, you might find different sized ear tips to ensure a comfortable fit. The initial setup is straightforward; begin by carefully removing all packaging materials.

Ensure that the device you intend to pair with has Bluetooth enabled and is discoverable.
Charging Your Voyager Legend Headset
To charge your Plantronics Voyager Legend, locate the magnetic snap-fit connection on the headset. This connection is designed for easy and secure attachment of the USB charging cable. Align the magnetic areas of the headset and the USB cable and connect them. Once connected, plug the other end of the USB cable into a USB wall charger or a USB port on your computer. When charging, the headset’s LED indicator will illuminate, typically showing a red or amber light. This light will turn off once the headset is fully charged, usually after approximately 90 minutes. The headset has enough power to make a few calls before charging is required, but it can be charged at any time. Proper charging ensures optimal performance and longevity of your headset’s battery. It is important to use the provided USB cable or a compatible one for charging purposes. Avoid using damaged or incompatible charging accessories to prevent damage to the headset.
Pairing with a Mobile Phone
To pair your Plantronics Voyager Legend with a mobile phone, start by ensuring the headset is powered off. Then, activate the Bluetooth function on your mobile phone, typically found in the settings menu. Next, put the Voyager Legend into pairing mode. This is usually done by pressing and holding the call button until the headset’s LED indicator begins to flash red and blue. Your mobile phone should now be able to discover the headset. On your phone, locate the list of available Bluetooth devices and select “Plantronics Voyager Legend” from the list. If prompted, enter the pin code, usually ‘0000’. Once successfully paired, the headset’s LED indicator will stop flashing and either turn blue or a solid color. You should hear a confirmation tone in the headset. The headset is now paired with your mobile phone and ready for use. For subsequent connections, the headset will automatically connect to the paired phone when both devices are powered on and within range. If the pairing process fails, turn off and then turn on both the headset and your mobile phone before trying again.
Multipoint Technology⁚ Connecting to Two Phones
The Plantronics Voyager Legend supports multipoint technology, allowing it to connect with two Bluetooth-enabled mobile phones simultaneously. To connect to a second phone, first ensure the headset is already paired with your primary phone. Then, put the headset into pairing mode again, as described in the previous section. Activate Bluetooth on your second mobile phone and search for available devices. Select “Plantronics Voyager Legend” from the list of available devices to pair your second phone. The headset is now connected to both phones. You can use the Voyager Legend to answer calls from either phone. However, if you are currently on a call on one phone, you must terminate or transfer that call before answering a second call on the other phone. The headset prioritizes the active call. This multipoint feature is very useful for managing both personal and work calls from a single headset. When both phones are in range and connected, the headset will notify you of incoming calls from either device. It allows for seamless transition between calls from the two connected mobile phones.
Basic Call Handling⁚ Answering, Ending, Muting
The Plantronics Voyager Legend offers intuitive controls for managing calls. To answer an incoming call, simply tap the Call button located on the headset. This action will connect the call, allowing you to begin your conversation. When you are finished with your call, tap the same Call button again to end the call. The call will disconnect, and the headset will return to its standby mode. During an active call, you can mute the microphone by pressing the dedicated Mute button. This will disable the microphone, preventing the other party from hearing you. You will hear an audio prompt confirming that mute is activated. To unmute the microphone, press the Mute button again, and another audio prompt will indicate that the microphone is active. These simple controls allow for easy call management, enabling you to answer, end, and mute calls efficiently. The call button ensures a quick response to incoming calls and a simple way to disconnect, while the mute button gives you privacy when needed.
Adjusting Volume and Audio Playback
The Plantronics Voyager Legend provides convenient controls for adjusting the volume and managing audio playback. To increase the volume, locate the volume button on the headset and press the upper part of it. Each press will raise the volume incrementally until the desired level is reached. Conversely, to decrease the volume, press the lower part of the same volume button. This will lower the volume step by step. The headset also allows you to control audio playback. To play or pause streaming audio, tap the call button. This will either start or stop the music or other audio content you are listening to. These controls ensure you can listen to audio at a comfortable level and control the playback to suit your needs. The simple button layout makes these adjustments very easy to use during calls or while listening to music. You can easily fine-tune the audio levels and control your content without having to reach for your phone.
Voice Commands and Alerts
The Plantronics Voyager Legend headset supports voice commands and provides helpful voice alerts to enhance user experience. To activate voice commands, you can usually say a specific keyword or press a button, which then allows you to manage calls and other features without using your hands. Voice commands enable actions like answering or rejecting calls, redialing the last number, or checking the battery level. The voice alerts inform you about the headset’s status, such as when it’s connected, when the battery is low, or when you have muted the microphone. These alerts are delivered through spoken notifications, making it easy to understand the headset’s current state without looking at any indicators. These voice features ensure that you can stay informed of important alerts and manage your headset more efficiently, keeping you connected and in control, especially when your hands are occupied. The alerts are designed to be clear and easy to understand, helping you to use the headset more effectively.
Using Sensors and Smart Features
The Plantronics Voyager Legend comes equipped with smart sensors that enhance its functionality and ease of use. These sensors can detect when the headset is being worn, allowing for automatic call answering when you place it on your ear, and automatic call transfer back to your phone when you remove the headset. This feature eliminates the need to manually press buttons for every call, providing a seamless experience. Additionally, the smart sensors can pause or resume streaming audio automatically when you take the headset off or put it back on, which is ideal for listening to music or podcasts. The headset also has a convenient call mute function, which is activated when it is placed on a flat surface. These smart features are designed to make the interaction with the headset more intuitive and hands-free. The use of sensors optimizes battery life by automatically managing power consumption. These combined features make the Voyager Legend a truly smart and user-friendly device.
Troubleshooting Common Issues

Ensure the headset is fully charged and try moving closer to your phone. If the headset won’t charge, check the USB cable and power source are working correctly.
