Setup

Initial Charging

Before first use, fully charge both the headphones and the charging case. This ensures optimal battery life and performance.

  1. Place both earbuds into the charging case. Ensure they are properly seated in their respective slots.

  3. The LED indicators on the charging case will show a red light while charging. Once fully charged, the light will turn blue.
  4. The earbuds will automatically charge when placed in the case, indicated by a red light on the earbuds themselves (if visible) or by the case's indicators.

Bluetooth Pairing

Follow these steps to pair your Umi W5s headphones with your device:

  1. Ensure the headphones are charged.
  2. Take both earbuds out of the charging case. They will automatically power on and enter pairing mode. You may hear an audible prompt.

  4. Search for available devices. You should see "Umi W5s" or a similar name appear in the list.

Wearing the Earbuds

For optimal sound quality and comfort, choose the correct eartip size and ensure a secure fit.

  • Experiment with the three provided eartip sizes (S/M/L) to find the best fit for your ears. A good seal is crucial for bass response and noise isolation.
  • Gently insert each earbud into your ear canal and twist slightly until it feels snug and comfortable.

Maintenance

Proper care and maintenance will extend the life of your Umi W5s headphones.

Cleaning

Storage

  • When not in use, always store the earbuds in their charging case to protect them and keep them charged.
  • Store the device in a cool, dry place, away from extreme temperatures and direct sunlight.
