2. Connect the USB-A end of the charging cable to a USB power adapter or a powered USB port.
3. The LED indicator light will show charging status. It will turn white when fully charged.

2. Pairing with Your Device

The beatsX headphones utilize Apple's W1 chip for seamless pairing with Apple devices and standard Bluetooth for other devices.

For Apple Devices (iOS 10 or later):

1. Ensure your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch is unlocked and near your beatsX headphones.
2. Press and hold the power button on your beatsX headphones for 1 second.

4. Your beatsX headphones are now connected and set up with all Apple devices signed into iCloud.

For Other Bluetooth Devices:

1. Press and hold the power button on your beatsX headphones for 5 seconds until the LED indicator light flashes white. This puts the headphones in pairing mode.
2. On your device, go to Bluetooth settings and ensure Bluetooth is enabled.
3. Select "beatsX" from the list of available devices.
4. Once paired, the LED indicator light will stop flashing and remain solid white.

3. Finding Your Optimal Fit

Proper fit is crucial for sound quality and comfort. Experiment with the included ear tips and wingtips.

• Ear Tips: Choose the size that creates a comfortable seal in your ear canal. This helps with sound isolation and bass response.
• Wingtips: If desired, attach the secure-fit wingtips for added stability, especially during physical activity.

Operating Your Headphones

The RemoteTalk control on the left cable allows you to manage music, calls, and Siri.

Power On/Off:

• To power on, press and hold the power button until the LED indicator light illuminates.
• To power off, press and hold the power button until the LED indicator light turns off.

Magnetic Earbuds:

The earbuds are magnetic, allowing them to snap together when not in use. This helps prevent tangling and keeps them securely around your neck.

Maintenance

Proper care will extend the life of your beatsX headphones.

• Cleaning: Use a soft, dry, lint-free cloth to clean the headphones. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Ear Tips: Remove ear tips periodically and clean them with a damp cloth and mild soap, then rinse and dry thoroughly before reattaching.
• Storage: When not in use, store your headphones in the provided carrying case to protect them from dust and damage. The magnetic earbuds help keep them tangle-free.
• Water Resistance: These headphones are not water resistant. Avoid exposure to excessive moisture, rain, or submersion in liquids.

  • Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your device and it is within range (typically 30 feet or 10 meters).
  • Try turning Bluetooth off and on again on your device.
  • If previously paired, try "forgetting" the device in your Bluetooth settings and re-pairing.
• No Sound or Poor Sound Quality:
