Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your headphones, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Headphones do not power on. | Battery is depleted. | Charge the headphones fully. |
| Cannot pair via Bluetooth. | Headphones not in pairing mode; device Bluetooth off; too far from device. | Ensure headphones are in pairing mode (flashing blue/red). Turn on Bluetooth on your device. Move headphones closer to the device (within 10m/33ft). |
| No sound in Bluetooth mode. | Volume too low; headphones not connected; incorrect audio output selected on device. | Increase volume on headphones and device. Ensure headphones are successfully paired and connected. Check audio output settings on your device. |
