Before first use, fully charge your headphones. Connect the provided USB charging cable to the charging port on the headphones and to a USB power source (e.g., computer, wall adapter). The charging indicator light will show the charging status. A full charge takes approximately 2 hours and provides up to 30 hours of playback time.

2. Powering On/Off

  • To Power On: Press and hold the Power button for approximately 3 seconds until the indicator light turns on.
  • To Power Off: Press and hold the Power button for approximately 3 seconds until the indicator light turns off.

3. Bluetooth Pairing

  1. Ensure the headphones are powered off.
  2. Press and hold the Power button for 5-7 seconds until the indicator light flashes blue and red, indicating pairing mode.
  3. On your device (smartphone, tablet, computer), enable Bluetooth and search for available devices.
  4. Select "STF Soar" from the list of found devices.
  5. Once paired, the indicator light on the headphones will turn solid blue or flash blue slowly.
  6. If prompted for a password, enter "0000".

The headphones will automatically attempt to reconnect to the last paired device when powered on.

4. Wired Connection (3.5mm Audio Jack)

You can use the STF Soar headphones with the included 3.5mm audio cable. This is useful when the battery is depleted or for devices without Bluetooth connectivity.

  2. Connect the other end to the 3.5mm audio output jack of your device.
  3. In wired mode, the headphone's battery is not consumed, and some controls on the headphones may be inactive.

Active Noise Cancellation (ANC)

The STF Soar headphones feature Active Noise Cancellation to reduce ambient sounds, allowing for a more focused listening experience.

  1. To Activate ANC: Locate the ANC button (refer to the product overview image for button location). Press the ANC button once. An indicator light (often green) will illuminate to confirm ANC is active.
  2. To Deactivate ANC: Press the ANC button again. The indicator light will turn off.

ANC works by using microphones to detect external noise and then generating an anti-noise signal to cancel it out. This is particularly effective for low-frequency sounds like engine hum or air conditioning.
