battery fully before first use. To do so, follow the steps below:
1. Connect one end of the included USB charging cable to the charging port on your headset. Then plug the other
end of the USB charging cable into a USB port on your computer or a suitable power adapter in order to recharge
the internal rechargeable battery.
NOTE: The internal battery of your headset takes approximately 2-3 hours to charge when completely drained.
2. When the battery is charging, the LED indicator light will turn red. The LED indicator light will turn off when the
battery is fully charged. Unplug when charging is complete.
NOTE: Overcharging could reduce the life of the battery. A charged battery will lose its capacity if it is not used on
a regular basis.
Important!
To avoid a complete discharge of the battery, charge your speaker at least once every six months.
