Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your PHILIPS TAT1108 earbuds, try the following solutions:
- No Sound: Ensure earbuds are charged, properly paired, and volume is up on both the earbuds and your device.

- One Earbud Not Working: Place both earbuds back in the charging case, close the lid, wait a few seconds, then open and try again. This often re-syncs them.
