    How do I know it's charged all the way?
    Community Answer
    There is a red light on the right ear speaker. The light is on during charging and will turn off when the charge is complete. Your smart device will also show the battery status once it's connected. Getting a full charge takes 2.5 hours according to the manual.

  • Question
    My device will not go into pairing mode after holding down the right ear piece for 6-10 seconds. What should I do?
    Community Answer
    I just went through this after I got a new phone and had to pair to it. I ended up trying holding down BOTH buttons for several seconds and it went into pairing mode again and was discoverable. Maybe try that.

    What is the wire with a clip attached to it?
    Community Answer
    That's an auxiliary cable to connect to a device that has a headphone jack but no Bluetooth connectivity.
