Setting Up Your Headset
Set up your headset in three simple steps:
1. Charge your headset
2. Connect your headset
3. Install the software
Step 1:Charge Your Headset
You are recommended to charge your headset before it is used for the first time. Connect your headset
to your computer using the USB cable, or connect it to a power supply via an adapter (available
separately). The LED will light in red when charging.
Using Your Headset While Charging
During subsequent charges, you can use your headset while it charges. The LED will light in red while
charging and return to its last status when fully charged.
You can also check the status of the battery via the battery indicator at the top right corner of the Sound
Blaster JAM Control Panel. Please refer to Using the Software for details.
Note:
The low battery tone will start beeping to inform users of its status 15 minutes before the headset is
completely powered off.

The Bluetooth discoverable mode is only available for 60 seconds after the headset is turned on. To
activate Bluetooth again, press the Multifunction button for 2 seconds. The LED will begin to blink
quickly in blue for 60 seconds while waiting to be connected.

3. Pairing success
When the headset and the Bluetooth device are paired, the LED will flash slowly in blue to indicate

Pairing Multiple Devices
The Sound Blaster JAM is able to pair up to two smart devices at the same time! To have the second
device paired, repeat steps 1 to 3. If a user wishes to pair the headset with a third smart device, one of
the two devices that are currently paired with the headset has to be unpaired.
Note:
Only one of the devices is able to play music at one time. The last paired smart device takes
precedence over the other device.
When there's an incoming call, the call takes precedence over audio playback -- music fades out and
the ringtone will be heard.

Bring your NFC-enabled device close (20mm) to the NFC zone / Multifunction button. The LED will
blink slowly in blue and a 3-note tone will be heard to indicate successful pairing. Play music from your

If you wish to unpair the devices, simply tap your NFC device on the headset again.
