This document describes the Philips SHB5250 Bluetooth In-Ear Headphones, designed for wireless freedom and powerful sound. These earphones feature 14.2mm drivers for big bass and an optimal fit designed around ear geometry.
The Philips SHB5250 Bluetooth In-Ear Headphones are designed to provide a convenient and high-quality audio experience for users on the go. As Bluetooth headphones, they allow for wireless connection to compatible devices such as mobile phones, notebooks, PDAs, Bluetooth adapters, and MP3 players. This wireless capability eliminates the hassle of tangled cables, offering freedom of movement during various activities.
The primary function of these headphones is to deliver audio playback from a connected Bluetooth source. With 14.2mm speaker drivers, they are engineered to produce powerful sound with rich bass, enhanced by powerful magnets for improved bass performance. This ensures an immersive listening experience for music, podcasts, and other audio content.
Beyond audio playback, the SHB5250 also facilitates hands-free communication. Users can make and receive phone calls wirelessly, controlling call functions directly from the headphones. This dual functionality makes them suitable for both entertainment and practical communication needs throughout the day.
The design prioritizes user comfort and convenience. The earbuds are shaped to fit the ear geometry comfortably, ensuring a secure and pleasant fit even during extended use. A tangle-free flat cable connects the two earbuds and houses the control unit, further enhancing convenience by preventing knots and snags.
The SHB5250 headphones offer a range of features designed to simplify their use and enhance the user experience:
Wireless Connectivity: The headphones utilize Bluetooth version 4.1, supporting profiles such as A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile) for stereo audio streaming, AVRCP (Audio Video Remote Control Profile) for music control, HFP (Hands-Free Profile) for phone calls, and HSP (Headset Profile) for basic headset functions. This broad compatibility allows connection to a wide array of Bluetooth-enabled devices. The operating range is up to 10 meters (33 feet), providing flexibility for movement away from the connected device.
Intuitive Controls: The headphones feature an integrated control unit on the cable, allowing users to manage their audio and calls without needing to interact directly with their connected device. This unit includes:
Call Management: The headphones provide comprehensive call management capabilities. Users can answer or end calls with a single press of the control button and switch between callers with a double press, offering seamless handling of incoming and ongoing conversations.
Music Control: For music enjoyment, users can play, pause, skip forward, and skip backward through tracks using the control buttons. Volume adjustment is also readily available.
Ear Geometry Fit: The earbuds are specifically designed to conform to the natural shape of the ear, ensuring a comfortable and secure fit that minimizes discomfort during long listening sessions and helps keep the headphones in place during light activity.
Tangle-Free Flat Cable: The flat design of the cable helps prevent tangling, making it easier to store and retrieve the headphones without frustrating knots. This contributes to a more convenient user experience, especially for those who frequently put their headphones in and out of bags or pockets.
LED Indicator: A small LED light on the control unit provides visual feedback on the headphones' status, such as pairing mode (flashing blue and white), connection status (blue flashes every 8 seconds), charging status (white during charging), and low battery level (white flashes 3 times every 10 seconds).
Multi-Device Pairing Memory: The headphones can store pairing information for up to four devices. When powered on, they will automatically attempt to reconnect to the last connected device. If that device is unavailable, they will try to connect to the second-to-last connected device, streamlining the reconnection process for users with multiple Bluetooth devices.
Auto Power Off: To conserve battery life, the headphones will automatically switch off if they fail to connect to any Bluetooth device within range for 5 minutes.
Proper care and maintenance are essential to ensure the longevity and optimal performance of the Philips SHB5250 headphones. The design incorporates features and recommendations to aid in this:
Flex-Grip Cable Relief: A rubberized flex-grip cable relief is integrated where the cable connects to the headphones. This design protects the connection from damage caused by repeated bending, significantly extending the life of the cable and the headphones.
Charging: The headphones are powered by a rechargeable lithium polymer battery. They are charged via a micro USB charging slot using the supplied USB charging cable. It is recommended to use only the original USB charging cable to prevent damage. For optimum battery capacity and lifetime, it is advised to charge the battery for 5 hours before first use. A full charge typically takes 2 hours. The LED indicator turns white during charging and turns off when fully charged.
Cleaning: To clean the headphones, a soft cloth should be used. If necessary, the cloth can be dampened with a minimum amount of water or diluted mild soap. Harsh cleaning agents containing alcohol, ammonia, benzene, or abrasives should be avoided as they can damage the product.
Storage and Operation Conditions: The headphones are designed to operate and be stored in temperatures between -15°C (5°F) and 55°C (131°F) with up to 90% relative humidity. Extreme temperatures, whether high or low, can shorten battery life.
Durability Considerations: Users are advised not to expose the headphones to excessive heat, drop them, or submerge them in water. They should also not be exposed to dripping or splashing liquids. The integrated battery should not be exposed to excessive heat sources like sunshine or fire.
Battery Replacement: In the event of battery failure, it is crucial to note that there is a danger of explosion if the battery is incorrectly replaced. Replacement should only be done with the same or equivalent type of battery. The product contains non-removable batteries, suggesting that battery replacement is not a user-serviceable task and should be handled by qualified personnel if necessary.
Disposal and Recycling: The product is manufactured with high-quality materials and components that can be recycled and reused. It may contain lead and mercury, and its disposal is regulated by environmental considerations. Users are encouraged to contact local authorities or visit www.recycle.philips.com for disposal and recycling information. Batteries should not be incinerated as they may explode if overheated.
By following these guidelines, users can maintain their Philips SHB5250 Bluetooth In-Ear Headphones in good condition, ensuring a reliable and enjoyable audio experience for an extended period.
