Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your earbuds, please refer to the following common solutions:

• Earbuds not pairing:
  Ensure both earbuds are charged. Place them back in the case, close the lid, wait a few seconds, then open the lid again to re-enter pairing mode. On your device, forget the "Monster Clarity 101Plus" from your Bluetooth list and try pairing again.
• Only one earbud working:
  Ensure both earbuds are charged. Try resetting the earbuds by placing them in the case, closing the lid, and then opening it. If the issue persists, try re-pairing them with your device.
• No sound:
  Check the volume level on both your earbuds and your connected device. Ensure the earbuds are properly paired and connected. Try playing audio from a different application or device.
• Charging issues:
  Ensure the USB-C cable is securely connected to both the charging case and the power source. Try using a different USB-C cable or power adapter. Clean the charging contacts on the earbuds and inside the case with a dry cotton swab.
• Poor sound quality:
  Ensure the earbuds are properly seated in your ears and you are using the correct size eargels for a good seal. Move closer to your connected device to avoid interference.
