Troubleshooting
Microphone is not picking up voice
Ensure the detachable boom mic is fully inserted and the in-line mute switch is not toggled on.
Audio sounds tinny or low quality
Check that the 3.5mm plug is fully seated in the port; a loose connection is the most common cause of poor sound quality.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin, simply connect the headset to your chosen device via the provided cable. The Predator Galea 370 is compatible with PC, Mac, PlayStation 4/5, Nintendo Switch, and mobile devices using standard audio connections. Ensure the boom microphone is securely seated in the designated port if you plan to use it for voice chat. When not in use, keep the headset in a dry, cool place and avoid wrapping the cable tightly around the earcups, as this can cause internal wire fatigue over time. If the microphone becomes muffled, gently wipe the casing with a soft, lint-free cloth to remove dust from the ENC intake ports.
