You can speed up the charging process by charging the headphones when they are switched off.
Connecting the headphones to a
Bluetooth device
To be able to use the Bluetooth wireless connection, you must register both devices (headphones and e.g. smartphone) once. This process is called pairing.
If operation differs from the steps mentioned, also refer to the instruction manual of the Bluetooth device you are using.
When you switch on the headphones for the first time, they automatically switch to pairing mode.
Information on the Bluetooth wireless connection
The headphones are compatible with Bluetooth 5.0.
If your audio source supports one of the following high-resolution audio encoding methods, music is automatically played in high audio quality: aptX, aptX LL or AAC. Otherwise the headphones will play your music in normal audio quality (SBC).
Paired devices establish the Bluetooth wireless connection immediately after switch-on and are ready for use.
On switch-on, the headphones automatically try to connect to the last connected Bluetooth device. The headphones can save the connection profiles of up to eight Bluetooth devices with which they have been paired.
If you pair the headphones with the ninth Bluetooth device, the saved connection profile of the least used Bluetooth device will be overwritten. If you want to re-establish a connection with the overwritten
Bluetooth device, you have to pair the headphones again.

Using the headphones
Information on active noise cancellation
ANC
Due to its closed design, the headphones offer effective passive isolation from ambient noise.
In addition, the headphones have an active noise cancellation (ANC) function, which allows you to reduce ambient noise to a minimum.
Even when ANC is activated, your headphones' sound quality is always at its best.
You can activate or deactivate ANC when the headphones and your audio source are connected via Bluetooth, or the audio cable (provided that the battery is sufficiently charged).
If you want to create a quiet space in a noisy environment, you can simply use the headphones – without cable and disconnected from
any Bluetooth device – as noise protection by using ANC (> 20).
Notes on active noise cancellation
• Continuous and uniform noise, such as motor or fan noise, is particularly well suppressed.
• Speech or high-frequency noise is significantly reduced, but can remain perceptible.
• In very quiet environments, slight noise may occur. In this case, deactivate ANC.
• If unusual (whistling or beeping) noise occurs, take the headphones off and put them on again. Make sure that the ear cups properly fit around your ears.
To avoid loud, unusual (whistling or beeping) noise and to ensure proper noise cancellation, do not cover the microphone openings of the active noise cancellation circuitry located on the outside of the ear cups.
Activating/deactivating the active noise cancellation ANC
To activate the active noise cancellation ANC:
1. Switch the headphones on. Press and hold the on/off button for 2 seconds.
You hear the voice prompt “Power on”.
2. Press the on/off button 1x.

Leaving the Bluetooth transmission range
Wireless calling and streaming are only possible in the Bluetooth transmission range of your smartphone. The transmission range largely depends on environmental conditions such as wall thickness, wall composition etc. With a free line of sight, the transmission range of most smartphones and Bluetooth devices is up to 10 meters.
If you, and therefore the headphones, leave the Bluetooth transmission range of the smartphone, the sound quality deteriorates increasingly until you hear the voice prompt “Lost connection” and the connection breaks down completely. If you immediately re-enter the Bluetooth transmission range, the connection is automatically re-established.
Deleting the Bluetooth pairing list of the headphones
Make sure that Bluetooth is deactivated on the headphones.
1. Restart the headphones by switching them off and on again (> 17
