2.5 hours charging gives 8 hours of playtime.

1. When not playing music, pressing Volume + or Volume – will announce the battery level.*
   
2. The LED will indicate a single green flash for more than 10% battery remaining and a single red flash when below 10%.
   
3. Your phone and the MySound App will also indicate battery status.

* Standby Mode: Powered and not playing music or on a phone call.

FINDING YOUR PERFECT FIT

CHOOSING YOUR SETUP BASED ON USE

OVER-EAR SPORT-FIT

We recommend choosing a fit based on how you plan to use your Jaybird X3.

SET UP YOUR FINS

1. Lay your X3 in front of you with the inline remote on the left hand side. Swap the fins to the opposite side so the fin with the 'L' is now on the side with the inline remote.
   
2. Rotate the fins so they are pointing towards the cable, as shown.
   
3. Place your X3 over your ear with the inline remote on your left side.
   

FINDING THE RIGHT SIZED TIPS AND FINS

1. Starting with the medium-sized tips and fins attached, try placing your buds firmly within your ear while in the over-ear position.
   
2. If your buds are not comfortable, or feel loose, try alternative sized tips and/or fins. You can also try the Comply™ foam tips or remove the fins completely. Be patient, it may take some time to get the perfect fit.
   
3. Once you are happy with the fit, move onto step 3.
   

CORD CLIPS

1. Lay your X3 in front of you and fit the cord clips as shown.
   
2. Find the right cord length to get a snug fit, with no excess slack, around the back of your head by pulling the top and bottom cord outwards.
3. Insert the last loop into the cord clip and pull firmly.
   

UNDER-EAR CASUAL-FIT

If you intend to use Jaybird X3 for casual use, we recommend the under-ear setup.

FINDING THE RIGHT SIZED TIPS AND FINS

1. With the medium-sized tips and fins attached, place your buds firmly within your ear while in the under-ear position. The inline remote should be on the right side.
   
2. If your buds are not comfortable, or feel loose, try alternative sized tips and/or fins. You can also try the Comply™ foam tips or remove the fins completely. Be patient, it may take some time to get the perfect fit.
   
3. Once you are happy with the fit, you are good to go.
