Operating/standby time with fully charged rechargeable batteries approx. 4 hours of operating time approx. 8 hours (up to 2 additional charging cycles of the earbuds) approx. 7 days

Upon delivery, the rechargeable batteries of the earphones and the charging case are in sleep mode and have to be woken up by connecting them once to a power source. Sennheiser recommends charging the earphones and the charging case for a complete charging cycle without interruption before using for the first time.

A complete charging cycle of the charging case and the earphones takes about 1.5 hours.

Sennheiser recommends using the supplied USB cable and a compatible standard USB power supply for charging the headphones.

When a USB cable connected to a power source is also connected to the charging case, the rechargeable battery of the charging case is being charged. When the earbuds are inserted into the charging box, their rechargeable batteries are being charged at the same time. The

LED of the charging case displays the charge status (> 6).

When the battery charge drops to a critical level, a voice prompt asks you to recharge the earphones (“Recharge headset”).

The charge status of the rechargeable battery of the charging case

is displayed by the LED on the charging case (> 6).

Connecting the earphones to a Bluetooth device

To be able to use the Bluetooth wireless connection, you must register both devices (earphones and e.g. smartphone) via the device settings of your smartphone. 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.

If you switch the earphones on for the first time after initial charging, they automatically switch to pairing mode.

Information on the Bluetooth wireless connection

The earphones 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).

MOMENTUM True Wireless | 13

Using the earphones

Paired devices establish the Bluetooth wireless connection immediately after switch-on and are ready for use.

When you switch the earphones on, they automatically try to connect to the last connected Bluetooth device. The earphones can save the connection profiles of up to eight Bluetooth devices with which they have been paired.

If you pair the earphones 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 earphones again.

The earphones are uncomfortable?

Test the different ear adapters to find the size that suits you best and

delivers the best sound quality (> 16).

The earphones are connected via the Smart Control app, but music playback is not possible?

If you connect the earphones only via the Smart Control app, you only establish the connection for controlling the earphones (via Bluetooth

Low Energy). In order to enable music playback, you have to pair the earphones with your smartphone using the smartphone's Bluetooth

menu (> 13).

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 earphones, leave the Bluetooth transmission range of the smartphone, the sound quality deteriorates increasingly until you hear the voice prompt “No connection” and the connection breaks down completely. If you immediately re-enter the Bluetooth transmission range of the smartphone, the connection is automatically re-established and you hear the voice prompt “Connected”. If this is not the case, tap the touch control panel of the earbud once.

The right earbud (primary earbud) can be used alone. The left earbud

(secondary earbud) cannot be used alone because it requires the right earbud for Bluetooth transmission.

Restarting the earphones

If the function of the earphones is disturbed, perform a restart:

▷ Make sure that the contacts on the earbuds and in the charging case are clean and make contact (the LED of the charging case lights up when you insert the earbuds into the charging case). If

necessary, clean the contacts (> 25).

▷ Use the USB cable to connect the charging case to a power

source (> 12).

Insert the earbuds into the charging case and, within 60 seconds, touch and hold the right and the left touch control panel for 6 seconds.

The earphones are restarted.
