Setup

  1. Connect the Headset: Plug the USB-C connector of the headset directly into an available USB-C port on your computer or compatible mobile device.

  5. Software Recognition: Your operating system should automatically detect and install the necessary drivers for the headset.

Maintenance

  • Storage: When not in use, store the headset in the provided travel bag to protect it from dust and damage. Avoid extreme temperatures.
  • Cable Care: The tangle-free braided cable is durable, but avoid sharp bends or excessive pulling to prevent internal damage.

Troubleshooting

No Audio or Microphone Not Working

  • Check Connections: Ensure the USB-C connector (or USB-A adapter) is securely plugged into your device.

    • Select "Logitech Zone Wired" as the default playback (output) and recording (input) device.
  • Check Application Settings: Within your communication application (e.g., Zoom, Teams), ensure "Logitech Zone Wired" is selected for both speaker and microphone.
  • Microphone Mute: Confirm the microphone is not muted via the in-line controller or by the flip-to-mute function (check for mute indicator light).
  • Restart Application/Device: Close and reopen your communication application, or restart your computer.

Poor Audio Quality

  • Microphone Position: Adjust the microphone boom arm to ensure it's close to your mouth for optimal voice pickup and noise cancellation.
  • Volume Levels: Adjust volume levels on the in-line controller, system settings, and application settings to avoid distortion.
  • Interference: Ensure the headset cable is not tangled or near other electronic devices that might cause interference.
  • Logi Tune App: Use the Logi Tune Desktop app to fine-tune EQ settings and mic gain.

Headset Uncomfortable
