Bluetooth is a wireless technology standard that uses a 2.4 GHz frequency to connect to various devices over short distances. It can connect and exchange data with other Bluetooth enabled devices, such as mobile devices, without connecting via cables.
✓ To avoid problems when connecting your earbuds to another device, place the devices close to each other.
✓ Ensure that your earbuds and the other Bluetooth device are within the Bluetooth connection range (10 m). The distance may vary depending on the environment the devices are used in.
✓ Ensure that there are no obstacles between the earbuds and a connected device, including human bodies, walls, corners, or fences.
✓ Do not touch the Bluetooth antenna of a connected device.
✓ Bluetooth uses the same frequency as some industrial, scientific, medical, and low power products and interference may occur when making connections near these types of products.
✓ Some devices, especially those that are not tested or approved by the Bluetooth SIG, may be incompatible with the earbuds.
✓ Do not use the Bluetooth feature for illegal purposes (for example, pirating copies of files or illegally tapping communications for commercial purposes).
