  3. The LED indicator light will typically show a solid red or amber color during charging.
  4. Charging is complete when the LED indicator light turns off or changes to blue/green.

Note: Ensure the earphone is fully charged before first use for optimal battery life.

4.2 Pairing with a Bluetooth Device

  1. Power On: Press and hold the Multi-function Button (MFB) for approximately 3-5 seconds until the LED indicator light flashes blue and red alternately. This indicates the earphone is in pairing mode.
