Setup

1. Unpack: Carefully remove the headphones from their packaging.
2. Extend Cable: Gently pull the 3.5mm audio cable from the headphone unit until it reaches the desired length. Avoid pulling excessively to prevent damage to the retraction mechanism.
3. Connect: Insert the 3.5mm audio jack into the headphone port of your audio device (e.g., smartphone, tablet, laptop, gaming console).
4. Adjust: Place the headphones over the user's ears and adjust the headband for a comfortable and secure fit.

Operating Instructions

These headphones are designed for simple plug-and-play operation. The volume limiting feature is built-in and does not require manual adjustment.

• Wearing: Position the earcups over each ear, ensuring the soft pads fully cover the ears for optimal sound and comfort. Adjust the headband so it rests comfortably on the head.
• Volume Control: The headphones feature an integrated 85dB volume limiter for hearing protection. Adjust the volume directly on your connected audio device. The headphones will ensure the output remains within safe listening levels.
• Cable Retraction: To retract the cable, gently pull the cable slightly further out, then release it. The cable will automatically retract into the headphone unit. Guide the cable as it retracts to prevent tangling or snagging.

Maintenance and Care

• Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe the surface of the headphones. For the fuzzy ear pads and headband, a slightly damp cloth can be used, but ensure they are completely dry before storage. Do not immerse the headphones in water.
• Cable Care: Always retract the cable gently. Avoid forcing the cable or pulling it at an extreme angle, which can damage the retraction mechanism.
• Storage: When not in use, fully retract the cable and store the headphones in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
• Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or strong detergents, as these can damage the materials and finish.

Troubleshooting

• No Sound:
  • Ensure the 3.5mm audio jack is fully inserted into both the headphone port and the audio device.
  • Check the volume level on your audio device.
  • Test the headphones with a different audio device to rule out a device issue.
• Sound from One Side Only:
  • Verify the audio jack is securely connected. Rotate the jack slightly in the port.
  • Test with another audio device or another pair of headphones to identify if the issue is with the headphones or the audio source.
• Cable Not Retracting:
  • Gently pull the cable out a short distance (about an inch) and then release it. This often resets the retraction mechanism.
  • Ensure there are no kinks or obstructions preventing the cable from retracting smoothly.
