5. Once connected, the LED indicator will stop flashing and remain solid blue.

Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) & Environmental Noise Cancellation (ENC)

The Comfort Pro headphones feature powerful ANC to block out external noise and ENC for clear calls. Press the dedicated ANC button to toggle between ANC On, Ambient Mode (allowing some environmental sounds for awareness), and ANC Off. ENC is automatically active during calls to ensure your voice is clear.

Spatial Audio

Experience immersive sound with Spatial Audio. This feature creates a 3D soundstage, making audio feel more lifelike. Spatial Audio is automatically enabled when supported by your device and content.

Low Latency Mode

For gaming or video playback where audio-visual synchronization is critical, activate Low Latency Mode by triple-pressing the MFB. This reduces audio delay for a more synchronized experience.

Voice Assistant

Access your device's voice assistant (Siri or Google Voice) by double-pressing the MFB. You can then issue commands through the headphone's microphone.

Call Management

• Answer/End Call: Short press the Power button.
• Reject Call: Press and hold the Power button for 2 seconds.

Maintenance

Cleaning

To maintain the performance and appearance of your headphones:

• Wipe the earcups and headband with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth.
• For stubborn dirt, lightly dampen the cloth with water. Avoid using harsh chemicals, solvents, or abrasive cleaners.
• Do not allow moisture to enter any openings.

Storage

When not in use, store your headphones in the provided carrying case to protect them from dust, scratches, and impacts. The foldable design allows for compact storage.

Battery Care

• Store the headphones with a partial charge if not used for extended periods.
• Avoid extreme temperatures, which can degrade battery life.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your Altec Lansing Comfort Pro headphones, refer to the following common solutions:

• Headphones won't turn on: Ensure the headphones are fully charged. Connect them to a power source and try again after a few minutes.
• Cannot pair with device:
  1. Ensure the headphones are in pairing mode (LED flashing rapidly).
  2. Turn off and on Bluetooth on your device.
  3. Delete "Altec Lansing Comfort Pro" from your device's Bluetooth list and attempt to pair again.
  4. Try pairing with a different device to rule out device-specific issues.
• No sound or low volume:
  1. Check the volume levels on both the headphones and your connected device.
  2. Ensure the headphones are properly connected via Bluetooth.
  3. If using a wired connection, ensure the audio cable is fully inserted into both the headphones and the audio source.
• ANC not working effectively:
  1. Ensure ANC is activated by pressing the ANC button.
  2. Adjust the fit of the headphones to ensure a good seal around your ears.
  3. ANC is most effective against low-frequency, constant noise. It may not completely block out voices or sudden, high-frequency sounds.
• Voice Assistant not responding: Ensure your device's voice assistant is enabled and that the headphones are properly connected. Double-press the MFB firmly.
