Please check the package for the following items:

- 1-to-2 Audio Splitter Cable (for desktop PCs with separate audio/mic jacks)
- User Manual (this document)
3. Setup Instructions
The ONIKUMA X22 Gaming Headphones are plug-and-play, requiring no additional drivers for most devices.
- Connect the Headset: Insert the 3.5mm audio jack into your device's audio port.
- For Desktop PCs: If your desktop computer has separate audio and microphone jacks, use the included 1-to-2 splitter cable. Connect the headset's 3.5mm jack to the splitter, then plug the two splitter ends into the corresponding audio output and microphone input ports on your PC.
- Adjust Fit: Put on the headset and adjust the adaptive floating head beam for a comfortable fit. Ensure the earcups fully cover your ears.
- Microphone Positioning: Position the flexible noise reduction microphone appropriately for clear communication.
The headset is fully compatible with Windows 7/8/10/11 and major operating systems.
4. Operating Instructions
- Volume Control: Use the inline switch on the headset cable to easily adjust the audio volume up or down.
- Microphone Activation: The inline switch also allows you to activate or mute the microphone.
- RGB Dynamic Lighting: The headphones feature dynamic RGB lighting effects on the earcups and headband, enhancing your gaming setup. These lights typically activate automatically when the headset is connected to a powered USB port (if applicable for RGB power) or when the audio jack is connected to a device providing power.
- Noise Reduction: The integrated noise reduction microphone ensures clear and crisp sound quality for communication, minimizing background distractions.
5. Maintenance and Care
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the headset. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
- Cable Care: Avoid excessive bending or pulling of the cables to prevent damage.
- Storage: Store the headset in a dry place, away from extreme temperatures and direct sunlight.
- Moisture: Keep device ports dry and avoid exposure to liquids.
6. Troubleshooting
- No Sound/Microphone Not Working:
- Ensure the 3.5mm audio jack (and splitter, if used) is fully inserted into the correct ports.
- Check the inline volume control on the headset and your device's audio settings to ensure volume is not muted or too low.
- Verify the microphone is not muted via the inline switch.
- Try reinserting the connector or using a different audio port on your device.
- Test the headset on another device to rule out device-specific issues.
- RGB Lights Not Working:
- Ensure the headset is properly connected to a device that can supply power for the RGB lighting (e.g., a USB port if the RGB is USB-powered, or the audio jack if it draws power from there).
- Check for any physical damage to the cable or headset.
- Device Not Recognizing Connection:
- Try reinserting the connector.
- Use a different port on your device.
