Posted .You can control your call or media volume by pressing the volume buttons on the headset and your phone as well.
Some phones will require you to dismiss an on-screen notification in order to further increase the volume, this is done to protect your hearing.

Posted .Hello Sheila and thank you for your review on our Explorer 500 headset, however, we are sorry to hear about your experience. If the audio of your headsets cuts off every once in a while you may want to reset the Bluetooth connection with your mobile. To do so: 1) Unpair the headset from your mobile phone by accessing your Bluetooth settings. 2) Power off your mobile phone for 2 minutes and turn it back on. 3) Re-pair the headset by pressing and holding down the call control button until you hear "pairing". 4) Access your Bluetooth settings and select "PLT_E500". Once successfully paired, you will hear "pairing successful. You may also want to test the headset connected to a different mobile to isolate the issue. Please don’t hesitate to contact us at www.plantronics.com/support if you require assistance!
