2. Charging Your Ear Buds
Your 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 as shown in the illustration.
The Charging Indicator will glow red while the ear buds are charging. The indicator will glow blue when
the ear buds are fully charged and ready to use.
When fully charged the battery should provide up to 6 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 Ear Buds
The recommended usage is to position the cable behind your neck before inserting the ear buds in
your ears. The ear buds should be worn with the control dongle on your right side.
Note: Noise isolation ear buds like the B12 are designed to provide a good seal in your ears and block
outside sounds. You should not use noise isolation ear buds in situations that require you to hear
outside warning sounds.
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.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Switching Your Ear Buds On and Off
NOTE: The first time you perform this operation you might find it convenient to place only the left ear
bud in your left ear. This will allow you to hold the control dongle in your right hand so that you can
see the control buttons and the LED indicator and still hear the confirming voice prompts in your left
ear. Once the ear buds have turned on and paired with your Bluetooth device you can then place
the right ear bud in your right ear.
2. Power On / Auto-Linking Mode
PRESS and HOLD the Multi-Function Button (MFB) on the control dongle for approximately 2 seconds
until you hear a confirmation tone that confirms the power is ‘On’. The blue LED begins flashing slowly
indicating that your ear buds are in the Auto-Linking Mode and trying to re-link to a previously paired
device as long as that device is within the normal pairing range of approximately 33-feet. If your ear
buds do not find a previously paired device that is in range and turned ‘on’ within 5 minutes they will
switch from the Auto-Linking mode to the Power ‘Off’ mode to extend the battery life.
3. Power Off
To shut the power ‘Off’ at any time PRESS and HOLD the Multi-Function Button (MFB) on the control
dongle for approximately 2 seconds. You will hear a confirmation tone, the red LED flashes three times,
and then the power shuts off.
4. Manually Pairing Your Ear Buds With Your Bluetooth Device
NOTE: Your ear buds must be ‘Off’’ to begin the manual pairing process.
With the ear buds in the ‘Off’ mode, PRESS and HOLD the Multi-Function Button (MFB) on the control
dongle for approximately 7 seconds. After 2 seconds you will hear a confirmation tone, and then the
LED indicator begins alternately flashing blue and red. Release the Multi-Function Button (MFB)
Make sure that your Bluetooth device is turned ‘On’ and in the Pairing mode. Refer to the instructions
supplied with your device if necessary. When your device “finds” the B12 ear buds, you will see
“B12-VM” appear on your device’s Bluetooth menu screen together with the words “Not Paired”, “Not
Connected” or similar. Touch “B12-VM” to complete the pairing process. You will hear a confirmation
tone, and you will see “B12-VM Connected” on your devices Bluetooth menu. The LED indicator will
slowly flash blue when you are successfully paired. NOTE: If your Bluetooth device asks for a
Password or a PIN to complete the pairing process, enter “0000” on the keypad of your device.
You are now ready to begin streaming music wirelessly from your Bluetooth device to your B12
Bluetooth ear buds.
