2. Charging Your iHome FIT Ear Buds
Your iHome Bluetooth ear buds operate on a built-in rechargeable battery. Although
the battery was fully charged when it left our factory, the battery can lose power even
during periods of non-use. Make sure to charge the battery before using the phone
for the first time.
To charge the battery connect the larger plug of the included
USB charging cable to the powered USB port of a computer or
a USB/AC adapter and then connect the smaller plug to the
USB charging port on side of the control dongle, below the
water resistant cover, as shown in the illustration.
The Charging Indicator will glow red while the ear buds are
charging. The indicator will turn off when the ear buds are fully
charged and ready to use.
When fully charged the battery should provide up to 4 hours of
talk time or music playing time at a normal listening level. If operated at maximum
volume the music playing time will be reduced. NOTE: While charging, the earbud
power will turn off to conserve battery power and minimize charging time.
3. Wearing Your iHome FIT Ear Buds
The ‘M’ size silicon tips were installed on the ear buds at our factory.
If you wish to change to either the ‘S’ or ‘L’ size tips simply pull the ‘M’ size tips off
the ear buds and replace them with the ‘S’ or ‘L’ size tips. Be sure to push the ‘S’ or
‘L’ size tips on to the ear buds until they are firmly seated on the
tubes so that the tips do not come off the ear buds when you
remove them from your ears. Using the proper size tips will
insure that you get the best possible seal in your ear canal and
provide the best audio quality.
Note that both the ear buds and the detachable ear hooks are marked ‘L’ (Left) and
‘R’ (Right). When installing the ear hooks make sure you install the ‘L’ ear hook on the
‘L’ ear bud and the ‘R’ ear hook on the ‘R’ ear bud.
