1 Important
safety
instructions
Hearing safety
• Be sure to observe the following guidelines
when using your headphones.
• Listen at reasonable volumes for reasonable
periods of time.
• Be careful not to adjust the volume
continuously upwards as your hearing adapts.
• Do not turn up the volume so high that you
can't hear what's around you.
• You should use caution or temporarily
discontinue use in potentially hazardous
situations.
• Excessive sound pressure from headphones
and headphones can cause hearing loss.
• Using headphones with both ears covered
while driving is not recommended and may be
illegal insome areas.
• For your safety, avoid distractions from music
or phone calls while in traffic or other
potentially dangerous environments.
General information
To avoid damage or malfunction:
Danger
• To avoid hearing damage, limit the time you
use headphones at high volume and set the
volume to a safe level. The louder the
volume, the shorter the safe listening time is.
Caution
• Do not expose headphones to excessive heat.
• Do not drop your headphones.
• Headphones shall not be exposed to dripping
or splashing. (Refer to the IP rating of specific
product)
• Do not allow your headphones to be submerged
in water.
• Do not charge your headphones when the
connector or socket is wet.
• Do not use any cleaning agents containing
alcohol, ammonia, benzene, or abrasives.
• Use a clean, damp cloth to clean your
headphones - especially the sound conduits and
the microphone holes - regularly and avoid
buildup of substances such as sweat or earwax.
• If any sweat or water droplets are left in the
sound conduits, air holes or microphone holes,
the sound level will temporarily drop or cut out
entirely. This is not a malfunction. Use a soft,
damp cloth to dry the headphones thoroughly.
Alternatively, remove the earbud tips, turn the
sound conduits downward and gently tap the
headphones about five times on a dry cloth or
similar to remove any water collected inside.
• Be sure the headphones are completely dry
before charging and using. Avoid using
disposable alcohol pads or other substances for
cleaning.
• The integrated battery shall not be exposed to
excessive heat such as sunshine, fire or the like.
• Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly
replaced. Replace only with the same or
equivalent type.
• To achieve the specific IP rating, the charging
slot cover must be closed.
• Disposal of a battery into fire or a hot oven, or
mechanically crushing or cutting a battery, can
result in an explosion.
• Leaving a battery in an extremely high
temperature surrounding environment can result
in an explosion or the leakage of flammable
liquid or gas.
• A battery subjected to extremely low air pressure
may result in an explosion or the leakage of
flammable liquid or gas.
• Replacement of a battery with an incorrect type
risks severely damaging the headphones and the
battery (for example, in the case of some lithium
battery types).
• If the headset is not used for a long time, the
rechargeable battery will begin to lose its charge.
To avoid this loss, please fully charge the battery
at least once every three months.
• To avoid risk of fire, the equipment is supplied
only by external power source which output
shall comply with PS1 (with output capacity
less than or equal to15W).
Operating and storage temperatures and
humidity
• Store in a place where the temperature is
between -20°C (-4°F) and 50°C (122 °F) with
up to 90% relative humidity.
• Operate in a place where the temperature is
between 0°C (32°F) and 45°C (113 °F) with
up to 90% relative humidity.
• Battery life may be shorter in high or low
temperature conditions.

8 Frequently
asked
questions
My Bluetooth headphones do not turn on.
The battery level is low. Charge the headphones.
I cannot pair my Bluetooth headphones with my
Bluetooth device.
The Bluetooth is disabled. Enable the Bluetooth
feature on your Bluetooth device and turn on the
Bluetooth device before you turn on the
headphones.
How to reset pairing.
While the device is powered on, press and hold the
MFB for 5 seconds until the blue and white LED
alternately flashes. This triggers re-pairing mode in
two cases:
1) Switching devices in multipoint connection
mode;
2) Connecting to a new source device.
I hear but cannot control music on my Bluetooth
device (e.g. play/pause/skip forward/backward).
Make sure the Bluetooth audio source supports
AVRCP (see ‘Technical data’ on page 10).
The volume level of the headphones is too low.
Some Bluetooth devices cannot link the volume
level with the headphones through volume sync. In
this case, you have to adjust the volume on your
Bluetooth device independently to achieve an
appropriate volume level.
The Bluetooth device cannot �nd the
headphones.
• The headphones may be connected to a
previously paired device. Turn off the
connected device or move it out of range.
• Pairing may have been reset or the
headphones have been previously paired with
another device. Pair the headphones with the
Bluetooth device again as described in the
user manual. (see ‘Pair the headphones with
another Bluetooth device’ on page 6).
My Bluetooth headphones are connected to a
Bluetooth stereo enabled mobile phone, but
music only plays on the mobile phone speaker.
Refer to the user manual of your mobile phone.
Select to listen to music through the headphones.
The audio quality is poor and crackling noise can
be heard.
• The Bluetooth device is out of range. Reduce
the distance between your headphones and
Bluetooth device, or remove obstacles
between them.
• Charge your headphones.
Clean your headphones regularly.
• Use a clean, damp cloth to clean your
headphones - especially the sound conduits
and the microphone holes - regularly and avoid
buildup of substances such as sweat or earwax.
• If any sweat or water droplets are left in the
sound conduits, air holes or microphone holes,
the sound level will temporarily drop or cut out
entirely. This is not a malfunction. Use a soft,
damp cloth to dry the headphones thoroughly.
Alternatively, for in-ear headphones remove the
earbud tips, turn the sound conduits downward
and gently tap the headphones about five times
on a dry cloth or similar to remove any water
collected inside.
• Be sure the headphones are completely dry
before charging and using. Avoid using
disposable alcohol pads or other substances for
cleaning.
Charge your headphones regularly.
If the headset is not used for a long time, the
rechargeable battery will begin to lose its charge. To
avoid this loss, please fully charge the battery at
least once every three months.
