Troubleshooting
Microphone is not picking up any sound
Check that the 3.5 mm plug is pushed all the way into the jack and verify that your system settings have the headset selected as the primary input device.
Audio only coming out of one side
Ensure the cable is not bent or kinked and verify that the connector is fully seated in the port without any debris inside the jack.
Volume control is not responding
Rotate the volume dial on the cable fully in both directions to ensure the internal contact point is engaged; check if the device volume is muted or set too low.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the MHS-03-WTRD is straightforward due to its plug-and-play design. Simply insert the 3.5 mm jack into your device's combo port—a single plug that handles both headphone audio and microphone input. This makes it highly compatible with modern smartphones, current generation laptops, and many desktop controllers.
To ensure the longevity of your headset:
- Clean the Cushions: Wipe the ecoskin ear cushions with a soft, slightly damp cloth to prevent oils from building up.
- Cable Management: Avoid tightly wrapping the 1.8m cable around the headset when not in use, as this can cause internal wire fatigue over time.
- Storage: Store the headset in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the material quality of the headband and ear pads.
