  1. Place the earbuds into the charging case.

  3. The LED indicators on the case will show the charging status. A full charge typically takes approximately 2 hours.
  4. The earbuds provide up to 12 hours of playback, with an additional 36 hours from the charging case (total 48 hours). With Active Noise Cancelling engaged, you get 10 hours from earbuds and 30 hours from the case.

  2. On your device (smartphone, tablet, etc.), go to Bluetooth settings and select "JBL Tune Beam" from the list of available devices.
  3. Once connected, the LED indicator on the earbuds will turn solid blue.
  4. Re-pairing / New Device: If the earbuds do not automatically enter pairing mode, or if you wish to pair with a new device, place both earbuds in the charging case, leave the lid open, and press and hold the button on the charging case for 5 seconds until the earbuds' LEDs flash blue.

3. Fitting the Earbuds

Proper fit is crucial for sound quality and Active Noise Cancelling performance.

  1. Choose the ear tips that provide the best seal and comfort for your ears. Experiment with different sizes (S, M, L).
