4. Maintenance and Care

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your GZLMMY K9 headphones, follow these maintenance guidelines:

• Cleaning: Wipe the headphones with a soft, damp cloth after each use, especially after swimming, to remove chlorine or salt residue. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
• Drying: Allow the headphones to air dry completely before charging or storing them, especially after exposure to water.
• Storage: Store the headphones in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
• Flexibility: The headphones are designed with a flexible titanium alloy frame. While durable, avoid excessive bending or twisting beyond their natural flexibility to prevent damage.

5. Troubleshooting

• Headphones not powering on: Ensure the battery is charged. Connect to the charger for at least 30 minutes before attempting to power on again.
• Cannot connect via Bluetooth:
  • Ensure the headphones are in Bluetooth pairing mode (flashing blue and red light).
  • Make sure Bluetooth is enabled on your device and it is within the effective range (10m).
  • Forget the device from your phone's Bluetooth settings and try pairing again.
• No sound from headphones:
  • Check the volume level on both the headphones and your connected device.
  • If in MP3 mode, ensure music files are properly loaded and not corrupted.
  • If underwater, confirm you are in MP3 mode, as Bluetooth does not work underwater.
• Short battery life:
  • Ensure the headphones are fully charged before use.
  • Note that continuous use, especially underwater, can consume battery faster. Underwater usage may reduce battery life to approximately 1 hour.
