Operating Instructions

Audio Playback:

  • Once connected, your device should automatically recognize the headphones as an audio output device.
  • Begin playing audio (music, videos, podcasts) from your connected device.
  • Adjust the volume directly on your connected device.

Using the Microphone:

  • The built-in microphone allows for hands-free communication.
  • When making or receiving calls, or participating in online meetings, ensure your device has selected the Maxell HP101 headphones as the input (microphone) device. This setting is usually found in your device's audio or sound settings.

Care and Maintenance

Proper care will extend the life of your headphones:

  • Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the exterior of the headphones. For ear cushions, a slightly damp cloth can be used, but ensure they are completely dry before use. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  • Storage: When not in use, store the headphones in a clean, dry place away from extreme temperatures and direct sunlight. Avoid tangling the cord.
  • Cable Care: Do not pull on the cable to disconnect the headphones. Always grasp the Type-C plug directly. Avoid bending the cable sharply or placing heavy objects on it.
