Troubleshooting

NO SOUND IN ONE EARBUD (MANUAL RESET)

Go to your device's Bluetooth settings and delete the connection to JBuds Air.
Open the charging case lid and leave both earbuds inside. With ONE earbud, quickly tap the button 7 times. The light will blink blue 4 times. Leave the earbuds in the charging case.
Repeat with the other earbud. Tap the button quickly 7 times. The light will blink blue 4 times.
Remove both earbuds from the charging case. Wait for one earbud to light solid white and the other to blink blue/white. You can now pair them with your Bluetooth device.

BLUETOOTH DEVICE CANNOT CONNECT OR RECONNECT

Go to your device's Bluetooth settings and delete the connection to JBuds Air.
Turn off Bluetooth on your device, then turn it back on.
Open the charging case and wait for one earbud to light solid white and the other to blink blue/white.
Select "JLab JBuds Air" in your device settings to reconnect.

Call Echo

Ensure the Cush Fin is not blocking the microphone if you experience echo or poor microphone audio with JBuds Air.

Quick Tips

Dry the headphones completely before placing them in the charging case to prevent damage to the case. The headphones are sweat and water-resistant, but the case is not.
Both headphones can connect to your device and be used independently. Remove an earbud from the charging case, and it will automatically connect to your device.
Ensure the correct ear tip creates a tight seal against the speaker unit for significantly improved sound quality. Try all included ear tips to find the best fit.

WARNING

Dry the headphones completely before placing them in the charging case to prevent damage. The headphones are sweat and water-resistant, but the case is not.

Warnings

Avoid extreme heat, cold, or humidity.
Avoid dropping or crushing your headphones.
Earwax may accumulate in the ear tips, degrading sound quality. Gently clean ear tips with a cotton swab or suitable tool to improve sound quality.
If you experience discomfort or pain, try lowering the volume or discontinue use temporarily.
If you experience persistent discomfort while using this product, discontinue use and consult a medical professional.
Treat your headphones with care, similar to how you would handle expensive sunglasses, and store them in a safe place when not in use.
