Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Headphones not pairing | Bluetooth is off on device, headphones not in pairing mode, or previously paired with another device. | Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your device. Place earbuds back in case, close, then open to re-enter pairing mode. Forget "OpenBuds Air" from your device's Bluetooth list and try pairing again. |
| No sound or low volume | Volume too low on device/headphones, headphones not connected, or audio source issue. | Increase volume on both your device and the headphones. Ensure headphones are properly connected. Check if audio is playing from the correct source on your device. |

| One earbud not working | Low battery in one earbud, or connection issue. | Place both earbuds back in the charging case, close the lid, wait a few seconds, then open it again. Ensure both earbuds are fully charged. Re-pair the headphones with your device. |
