| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Headphones do not power on. | Low battery. | Charge the headphones for at least 30 minutes. |
| Cannot pair with device. | Bluetooth not enabled on device; headphones not in pairing mode; too far from device. | Ensure Bluetooth is on. Put headphones in pairing mode. Move device closer (within 10m). Forget device and re-pair. |
| No sound or low volume. | Volume too low on headphones or device; headphones not connected; incorrect audio output selected. | Increase volume on both headphones and device. Reconnect headphones. Check device's audio output settings. |
