8. Troubleshooting

• No Power: Ensure the device is fully charged. Connect it to a power source using the Micro USB cable.
• Cannot Pair:
  • Make sure the KN321 is in the correct mode (TX for transmitting, RX for receiving).
  • Ensure the other Bluetooth device is in pairing mode and within the 10-meter (33ft) operating range.
  • Turn off and on both devices, then try pairing again.
  • Clear previous Bluetooth connections on your source/receiving device if necessary.
• No Sound:
  • Verify that the audio cables are securely connected to both the KN321 and the audio source/receiving device.
  • Check the volume levels on all connected devices (KN321, source device, receiving device).
  • Ensure the KN321 is successfully paired and the indicator light is solid.
  • Confirm the correct audio input/output is selected on your source/receiving device.
• Humming/Static Noise: If you experience humming or static, especially when charging, try using a different USB power adapter or connecting the device to a different power source. Some power sources can introduce ground loop noise.
• Intermittent Connection: Reduce the distance between the KN321 and the paired device. Ensure there are no significant obstacles (walls, large metal objects) between them.

9. Maintenance

• Clean the device with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosols.
• Store the device in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
