Troubleshooting
Headphones won't turn on.
Ensure the headphones are charged. Connect the USB Type-C cable to a power source and allow them to charge for at least 30 minutes. Try holding the power button for a longer duration.
Cannot connect via Bluetooth.
Make sure Bluetooth is enabled on your device and the headphones are in pairing mode (usually by holding the power button until the indicator light flashes). Ensure the headphones are not already connected to another device. Try turning Bluetooth off and on again on your device or restarting both devices.
Audio is distorted or cutting out.
Check the Bluetooth connection strength; move your device closer to the headphones. Ensure there are no obstructions between the device and the headphones. Try disconnecting and reconnecting the Bluetooth. Ensure the headphones are fully charged.
Microphone not working during calls.
Verify that the microphone permission is granted to the headphones/app in your device's settings. Ensure the integrated microphone is not blocked. Try restarting the headphones and your connected device.
Sound quality is not as expected.
Adjust the EQ settings in the JBL Headphones App. Ensure the headphones are securely positioned on your ears. Check if the audio source itself has low-quality audio.
