TIPS

Make Calls With Voice Dialing:
Your headphones can work with your phone's voice dialing feature. Press the Call button for 2 seconds and listen for the low tone. Your phone may prompt you by saying something like "Name Please." Check your phone's documentation for details.

Hear What's Going On Around You:
Your headphones use the OpenMicTM feature to pause the music when you want to hear your surroundings or have a quick chat with someone nearby. To use this feature, tap the Music button once, then tap it again when you are finished and want to resume music play.

To disable this feature, press the Call and Volume Down buttons for 3 seconds (you will hear a low-high-low set of tones). To re-enable it, press the Call and Volume Down buttons for 3 seconds (you will hear a high-low-high set of tones).

Check the Battery Level:
If you are on a call or listening to music and hear 3 high tones then you have under 10 minutes of listening time remaining.

At other times, you can check the battery level by tapping the Power button. The headphones will say how many hours of useage remain.

The LED also flashes red to show the battery level.
1 flash = more than 2/3 full
2 flashes = 1/3 - 2/3 full
3 flashes = less than 1/3 full

Stay Near Your Device: Bluetooth has a working "range" of up to 33 feet between the device and headphones before audio degrades and the connection is lost. For best audio reception, keep your device on the left side of your body.

Know How to Reconnect: Your headphones try to reconnect a lost Bluetooth connection. If they can't, then tap the Call button once or manually reconnect via the device's Bluetooth menu.
