Information on the rechargeable battery and the charging process
The headphones have a built-in rechargeable battery. A complete
charging cycle takes approx. 2 hours. Before using the headphones
for the first time, charge the rechargeable battery for a complete
charging cycle without interruption.
When the headphones are being charged, the LED lights up (> 7).
Once the headphones are fully charged, the LED flashes blue 5x and
then goes off. When the battery charge drops to a critical level, a
voice prompt asks you to recharge the headphones (“Recharge
headset”).
Sennheiser recommends using the supplied USB cable and a compatible standard USB power supply for charging the headphones.
While the headphones are being charged, you can still listen to
music or make phone calls. In this case, however, the charging time
may be longer.
Charging the headphones' rechargeable battery
1. Connect the USB-C connector of the charging cable to the USB
socket of the headphones.
2. Connect the USB-A connector to a corresponding socket of a USB
power source (*to be ordered separately). Make sure that the USB
power source is connected to the power supply system.

Connecting the headphones to a Bluetooth device
To be able to use the Bluetooth wireless connection, you must register both devices (headphones and e.g. smartphone) once. This process is called pairing.
If operation differs from the steps mentioned, also refer to the
instruction manual of the Bluetooth device you are using.
When you switch on the headphones for the first time, they
automatically switch to pairing mode.
Information on the Bluetooth wireless connection
The headphones are compatible with Bluetooth 5.0.
If your audio source supports one of the following high-resolution
audio encoding methods, music is automatically played in high audio
quality: aptX, aptX LL or AAC. Otherwise the headphones will play
your music in normal audio quality (SBC).
Paired devices establish the Bluetooth wireless connection immediately after switch-on and are ready for use.
On switch-on, the headphones automatically try to connect to the
last connected Bluetooth device. The headphones can save the con
nection profiles of up to eight Bluetooth devices with which they
have been paired.
If you pair the headphones with the ninth Bluetooth device, the saved
connection profile of the least used Bluetooth device will be over
written. If you want to re-establish a connection with the overwritten
Bluetooth device, you have to pair the headphones again.

WARNING
Danger of hearing damage due to high volume levels!
Listening at high volume levels can lead to permanent
hearing defects. Toggling between the audio sources
may cause enormous volume jumps that can perma
nently damage your hearing.

Using the headphones
Information on active noise cancellation ANC
Due to its closed design, the headphones offer effective passive isolation from ambient noise.
In addition, the headphones have an active noise cancellation (ANC)
function, which allows you to reduce ambient noise to a minimum.
Even when ANC is activated, your headphones' sound quality is
always at its best.
You can activate or deactivate ANC when the headphones and your
audio source are connected via Bluetooth, or the audio cable (pro
vided that the battery is sufficiently charged).
If you want to create a quiet space in a noisy environment, you can
simply use the headphones – without cable and disconnected from
any Bluetooth device – as noise protection by using ANC (>
Notes on active noise cancellation
• Continuous and uniform noise, such as motor or fan noise, is particularly well suppressed.
• Speech or high-frequency noise is significantly reduced, but can
remain perceptible.
• In very quiet environments, slight noise may occur. In this case,
deactivate ANC.
• If unusual (whistling or beeping) noise occurs, take the headphones off and put them on again. Make sure that the ear cups
properly fit around your ears.
To avoid loud, unusual (whistling or beeping) noise and to ensure
proper noise cancellation, do not cover the microphone openings of
the active noise cancellation circuitry located on the outside of the
ear cups.

Leaving the Bluetooth transmission range
Wireless calling and streaming are only possible in the Bluetooth
transmission range of your smartphone. The transmission range
largely depends on environmental conditions such as wall thickness,
wall composition etc. With a free line of sight, the transmission
range of most smartphones and Bluetooth devices is up to 10 meters.
If you, and therefore the headphones, leave the Bluetooth transmission range of the smartphone, the sound quality deteriorates
increasingly until you hear the voice prompt “Lost connection” and
the connection breaks down completely. If you immediately re-enter
the Bluetooth transmission range, the connection is automatically
re-established.
Deleting the Bluetooth pairing list of the headphones
Make sure that Bluetooth is deactivated on the headphones.
1. Restart the headphones by switching them off and on again (> 17
and 16).
2. Simultaneously press and hold the on/off button and the 3-way
