Set your wireless LAN router's channel to Auto, 1 or 11. To do this, refer to your router's user
documentation.
Place your Bluetooth device away from other devices (for example, wireless routers) that transmit wireless signals.
Place your Bluetooth device away from large metal surfaces.
Refrain from doing large file transfers via the wireless Internet or Bluetooth connection while listening to music wirelessly. Alternatively, do not use your headset during intensive file transfers.

Check if there are already two devices being connected to the headset. In that case, select one
of the devices to be powered off.
Troubleshooting 29
Additional Guide for Windows Users
In the event a user wishes to connect the headset via a 4-pole cable to a PC / notebook or a Sound
Blaster sound card, it is recommended to purchase a Y-splitter separately (available online) for best
audio. Note: Turn off the SBX effect on the headset if it's connected to the Sound Blaster sound card.
Generally a 4-pole stereo cable bundle allows you to connect your headset to your iPhone / Android
phone / tablet. However, some phone / tablet's 4-pole female jack has different configuration and this
cable is unable to support if the configuration is different from the jack (bundled) as illustrated below:
(c) Microphone
(d) Ground
(a) Audio Left
(b) Audio Right
Should you be keen to connect your headset to an MP3 Player, you will need to check if the
configuration of its 4-pole female jack is compatible.
Troubleshooting 30
Tips for iPhone Users
When your iPhone is paired with the EVO Wireless during a call, you have the option to switch the
audio source to either the EVO Wireless or your phone, so you are able to speak on the desired device
or headset. Note: By default, the selected device will be your iPhone.
a. To change the audio source, tap the "audio source" icon on the screen.
b. Then, tap on the desired device, e.g. "SB EVO Wireless".

Set the volume to a safe level. You can adapt over time to a higher volume of sound that may sound
normal but can be damaging to your hearing. If you experience ringing in your ears or muffled speech,
stop listening and have your hearing checked. The louder the volume, the less time is required before
your hearing could be affected. Hearing experts suggest that to protect your hearing:
Limit the amount of time you use the Sound Blaster EVO Wireless headset at high volume.
Avoid turning up the volume to block out noisy surroundings.
Turn the volume down if you can't hear people speaking near you.
To prevent possible hearing damage, do not listen at high volume levels for long periods.

Safety Information 33
IMPORTANT — A LIRE AVEC ATTENTION
Ecouter de manière prolongée, à un très haut volume sonore de la musique (au dessus de 80
decibels), aumoyen d'un casque ou d'écouteurs, peut entraîner une détérioration irreversible et
définitive de vos facultés auditives. L’usage répété et habituel d’un casque ou d’écouteurs à un niveau
de volume sonoretrop élevé peut donner l'impression à l'utilisateur que le volume sonore émis par
l’appareil n'est pas suffisant. L’utilisateur sera tenté d’augmenter, petit à petit, son réglage habituel,
risquant ainsi d'atteindre un niveau dangereux pour ses oreilles. Afin de protéger votre santé, et vos
oreilles, veillez à maintenir le volume de la sortie casque de votre appareil à un niveau adapté et à
interrompre son utilisation régulièrement et particulièrement si des symptômes, comme des troubles
de l'ouïe, se manifestent.
N'utilisez pas le casque ou les écouteurs pendant la conduite d'une voiture, d'une bicyclette ou de tout
autre véhicule motorisé, afin d'éviter tout accident de le circulation. En outre, il est interdit dans
certains pays d'utiliser un casque ou des écouteurs en conduisant. Il peut être également dangereux
d'écouter à volume élevé tout en marchant, spécialement aux passages piétons. Soyez toujours
extrêment prudent et cessez d'utiliser cet appareil dans les situations présentant des risques
d'accident.
Evitez d'utiliser le casque ou les écouteurs à volume élevé. Les médecins spécialistes de l'audition
déconseillent une écoute continue à volume trop élevé. Si vous percevez un sifflement dans les
oreilles, réduisez le volume ou cessez l'écoute.
Maintenez un volume d'écoute modéré. Vous pourrez ainsi entendre les sons extérieurs et être attentif
aux gens qui vous entourent.
