2. Connect the provided charging cable to the headphone's charging port.
3. Connect the other end of the charging cable to a USB power source (e.g., computer USB port, USB wall adapter).
4. The LED indicator light will typically glow red during charging and turn off or change to blue/green when fully charged.

2. Powering On/Off

1. To Power On: Press and hold the Power button (usually located on one of the ear cups) for approximately 3-5 seconds until the LED indicator light flashes.
2. To Power Off: Press and hold the Power button again for approximately 3-5 seconds until the LED indicator light turns off.

2. Press and hold the Power button for about 5-7 seconds until the LED indicator light flashes rapidly, indicating pairing mode.
3. On your device, go to Bluetooth settings and ensure Bluetooth is enabled.
