4. Getting Started

Charging Your Headset

Connect your Razer Opus directly to any Type A port using the charging cable. For best results, please fully charge your headset before using it for the first time. A depleted battery will fully charge in about 3.5 hours.

Connect the Type C end of the charging cable to the headset's Type C port and the Type A end to a Type A port on your computer or power adapter.

Charging Status Indicator

Wireless Mode

While powered off, press and hold the power button until the status indicator starts blinking blue. An audio prompt will notify you that your Razer Opus is searching for compatible Bluetooth devices. Follow your device's instructions to pair it with your Razer Opus. Once the headset is paired, the status indicator will briefly change to static blue.

Status indicator blinking blue [Bluetooth pairing mode]. Status indicator static blue [Headset paired].

Wired Mode

Connect your Razer Opus to any 3.5mm audio socket using the provided 3.5mm audio cable. You can also use the airline headphone adapter along with the 3.5mm audio cable for in-flight audio jacks. As long as your headset is powered on, you can still use ANC and Ambient Awareness in wired mode.

Connect the 3.5mm audio cable to the headset's 3.5mm audio socket and your device.

CAUTION: Do not plug the airline headphone adapter into a power outlet. Doing so may void your warranty.

Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) / Ambient Awareness

Active Noise Cancellation helps eliminate background noise while Ambient awareness allows you to hear your surroundings without needing to remove your headset. While powered on, press the Power button once to activate ANC, and twice to activate Ambient Awareness. Pressing the button again for the third time will deactivate both functions.

With Gaming Mode enabled, your headset will function at a lower latency, giving you real-time audio feedback while gaming. While connected via Bluetooth, press and hold the Center / Multi-function button for 5 seconds to activate or deactivate this function. The status indicator will briefly blink in blue and an audio prompt will notify you that this function has been enabled.

6. Safety and Maintenance

Safety Guidelines

In order to achieve maximum safety while using your Razer Opus, we suggest that you adopt the following guidelines:

Should you have trouble operating the device properly and troubleshooting does not work, unplug the device and contact the Razer hotline or go to support.razer.com for assistance.

Do not take apart the device (doing so will void your warranty) and do not attempt to operate it under abnormal current loads.

Keep the device away from liquid, humidity or moisture. Operate the device only within the specific temperature range of 0°C (32°F) to 40°C (104°F). Should the temperature exceed this range, unplug and/or switch off the device in order to let the temperature stabilize to an optimal level.

The device isolates external ambient sounds even at low volumes, resulting in lowered awareness of your external surroundings. Please remove the device when engaging in any activities that requires active awareness of your surroundings.

Listening to excessively loud volumes over extended periods of time can damage your hearing. Furthermore, legislation of certain countries permits a maximum sound level of 86db to affect your hearing for 8 hours a day. We therefore recommend that you reduce the volume to a comfortable level when listening for prolonged periods of time. Please, take good care of your hearing.

Maintenance and Use

The Razer Opus requires minimum maintenance to keep it in optimum condition. Once a month we recommend you clean it using a soft cloth or cotton swab to prevent dirt buildup. Do not use soap or harsh cleaning agents.

Battery Warning

The Razer Opus contains a Li-ion rechargeable battery. In general, the life expectancy of such batteries is dependent upon usage. If you suspect that the Li-ion rechargeable battery inside the Razer Opus may be drained (has a low charge), try charging it.

Caution: Do not open, mutilate, or expose to conducting materials (metal), moisture, liquid, fire, or heat. Doing so may cause batteries to leak or explode, resulting in personal injury. Battery life varies with usage.
