Setup Guide

1. Charging the Earphones and Case

Before first use, ensure both the earphones and the charging case are fully charged.

  • Charging Case: Connect the provided Type-C charging cable to the charging port on the case and a power source. The charging case display screen will show the battery level. It will indicate 100% when fully charged. The display will automatically turn off after approximately 30 seconds of inactivity.

Note: A full charge for the case and earphones typically takes about 1.5 hours.

2. Initial Pairing with Your Mobile Phone

Follow these steps to connect your earphones to your device for the first time:

  1. Take out both earphones from the charging case. They will automatically enter pairing mode.
  2. On your mobile phone, go to Bluetooth settings and search for available devices.
  3. Select "MINISO MS118" (or similar name) from the list to connect.
  4. Once successfully paired, you will hear two beeps, and the white indicator light on the headset will flash during pairing, then turn off upon successful connection.

If the earphones have been previously paired, they will automatically connect to the last paired device when taken out of the case, and you will hear a "beep" sound.

Troubleshooting

Earphones Not Pairing or Reconnecting

    3. Place them back in the case, then take them out again to initiate a fresh pairing process (refer to "Initial Pairing" section).
  • Reset Earphones: If the earphones fail to pair with each other or with your phone, perform a reset:

    2. Tap both earphones 5 times simultaneously. This action will reset them and clear their Bluetooth pairing history.
    3. Place them back in the case, then take them out again and attempt to pair them with your device.
  • Check Device Bluetooth: Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your mobile phone and that the earphones are within range (<10m).
  • Reboot Device: Sometimes, simply turning your phone's Bluetooth off and on, or restarting your phone, can resolve connection issues.

No Sound or Low Volume

  • Check the volume levels on both your earphones (using touch controls) and your connected device.
  • Ensure the earphones are properly seated in your ears.
