Operating Instructions
Audio Control
- Volume Control: Use the integrated volume control wheel or buttons located on the headset cable to adjust the audio output level.
- Control Button: The headset features a control button, typically used for muting the microphone or managing calls on compatible devices. Refer to your device's specific audio settings for full functionality.
Microphone Usage
The ONIKUMA X20 is equipped with an omnidirectional HD microphone designed for clear communication.

RGB Lighting
The headset features dynamic RGB lighting effects, including a Hawkeye Lighting Design and Mirage Lamp Effect RGB, which activate automatically when the USB connector is plugged into a powered USB port.
Maintenance
Proper care will extend the life of your ONIKUMA X20 Gaming Headset.
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe down the headset. For earcups, a slightly damp cloth can be used, but ensure no moisture enters the speaker grilles. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Storage: Store the headset in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Avoid tangling the cable by coiling it loosely.
- Cable Care: Do not pull on the cable to disconnect the headset. Always grasp the plug firmly. Avoid sharp bends or kinks in the cable.
- Microphone Care: Handle the microphone arm gently. Avoid excessive force when adjusting its position.
Troubleshooting
No Sound or Low Volume
- Check Connections: Ensure the 3.5mm audio jack is fully inserted into the correct audio output port on your device.
- Volume Levels: Verify that the headset's inline volume control is turned up and that your device's master volume is not muted or set too low.
- Device Settings: Check your device's audio settings to ensure the headset is selected as the default audio output device.
- Compatibility: Confirm your device is compatible with a 3.5mm audio jack.
Microphone Not Working
- Check Connections: Ensure the 3.5mm audio jack is correctly connected to a combined audio/mic port or that a splitter is properly used if your device has separate ports.
- Microphone Mute: Check if the microphone mute function (if present on the inline control) is activated.
- Device Settings: Verify your device's sound settings to ensure the headset microphone is selected as the default input device and that its volume is not muted or too low.
- Microphone Position: Adjust the microphone arm to ensure it's positioned correctly.
RGB Lighting Not Working

User Tips
- Wired Connection Clarity: Remember that the ONIKUMA X20 is a wired headset. For mobile use, it connects via its 3.5mm cable, not Bluetooth. This ensures a stable, low-latency audio experience ideal for gaming.
- Optimal Microphone Placement: For the clearest communication, position the omnidirectional microphone about two fingers' width from your mouth. This helps in capturing your voice while minimizing ambient noise.
- RGB Power: The vibrant RGB lighting requires the USB connector to be plugged into a powered USB port. If the lights aren't on, double-check this connection.
- Comfort for Long Sessions: The headset is designed to be lightweight (approx. 325g) for extended comfort. Take short breaks during long gaming sessions to maintain comfort and focus.
