The Sprout Harmonic 3.0 Bluetooth Headphones are designed to enhance your audio experience, whether for productivity, study, or leisure. As an Australian brand, Sprout focuses on developing technology accessories that add value to your way of life. This manual provides comprehensive instructions for using, maintaining, and troubleshooting your Harmonic 3.0 headphones.
The Harmonic 3.0 Bluetooth Headphones offer a range of features to deliver high-quality audio and convenient communication. At its core, the device provides wireless audio playback via Bluetooth, allowing you to connect to smartphones, tablets, and other compatible devices. For situations where wireless connectivity isn't preferred or available, the headphones also support a 3.5mm AUX-in connection.
A key feature of these headphones is the Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) function. This technology is designed to reduce outside noise, providing a more immersive and focused listening experience. When activated, the ANC function helps to minimize distractions from your surroundings, making it ideal for travel, busy environments, or simply when you want to concentrate on your audio.
The headphones are equipped with a microphone for calls, enabling hands-free communication. This allows you to answer, end, reject, and transfer calls directly from the headphones, integrating seamlessly with your mobile device.
Another innovative feature is Duolink®, which allows you to connect multiple Harmonic 3.0 headphones to a single primary device. This means you can share your audio experience with another person, with one set of headphones acting as the 'primary' and the other as the 'replica'. This is particularly useful for shared listening experiences, such as watching a movie together or listening to music with a friend.
Getting started with your Harmonic 3.0 headphones involves a few simple steps. First, ensure the headphones are adequately charged using the provided USB-C charging cable. The LED indicator will show a red light during charging and turn blue once fully charged. A full charge typically takes about 1.5 hours. iOS devices will also display the battery status on their screen.
To power on the headphones, press and hold the power/play/pause button for 3 seconds. The LED indicator will alternately flash blue and red. To power off, repeat the same action.
Pairing your headphones via Bluetooth is straightforward. From a powered-off state, press and hold the multifunction button for 5 seconds to enter pairing mode. If the headphones are already on, press and hold the multifunction button for 2 seconds. The LED indicator will flash blue/red until a device is connected. Then, enable Bluetooth on your mobile device, select 'Harmonic 3.0' from the list of available devices, and pair. Once connected, the LED light will flash blue every 5 seconds.
When using the AUX input, simply connect the 3.5mm audio wire to your headphones and your audio device. It's important to note that when connected via AUX, all additional controls on the headphones (such as volume, skip track, etc.) will be disabled, and you'll need to use your audio device to perform these functions.
The headphones offer various controls for audio playback and calls. Volume can be adjusted using the Vol+ and Vol- buttons. A short press on the power/play/pause button will pause or resume audio. For calls, a short press answers an incoming call or ends an ongoing call. To reject a call, press the power/play/pause button for 2 seconds. You can also transfer a call between your headphones and smartphone by pressing the power/play/pause button for 2 seconds after accepting a call.
The Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) function is activated by switching the dedicated ANC button to "ON." The LED indicator will turn green when ANC is engaged, signifying that the noise reduction feature is active.
The Duolink® feature allows for shared listening. To connect multiple Harmonic 3.0 headphones, first, short press the Duolink® button on your primary device. It will announce "Duolink® enabled." Then, short press the Duolink® button on your replica device, which will also announce "Duolink® enabled." Finally, press the Duolink® button once more on the replica to connect both devices. The replica will announce "Duolink® Audio," and the primary device will show a solid blue light, while the replica will show a flashing red and blue light. To disconnect or reset the Duolink® function, press the Duolink® button again to disable it (which will remember replicas) or press and hold it for five seconds to make the primary device 'forget' all replica devices.
To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Harmonic 3.0 headphones, it's important to follow certain maintenance and safety guidelines.
Charging should always be done using the provided USB-C cable and a suitable power source, such as a Sprout AC power adapter, car charger, or computer USB connection. Protect the charging cable from being pinched, especially at the connectors, to prevent damage. It is recommended to unplug the charging cable during lightning storms or when the headphones are not in use for extended periods. While the headphones can be used for up to 35 hours on a single charge, it's generally not recommended to use them while charging.
For cleaning, avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the headphones. The protein leather ear pads with memory foam are designed for comfort and can be gently wiped clean.
If you encounter any issues or wish to restore the headphones to their factory settings, you can do so by connecting them to a computer via the USB A to USB C cable and pressing the Vol+ and Vol- buttons together for 5 seconds. The LED indicating light will flash blue 6 times to confirm the reset.
Regarding safety, it is crucial to avoid exposing your Harmonic 3.0 headphones to open fire, excessive heat, or water. Do not disassemble or attempt to modify the device in any manner, as this can lead to product damage, fire, or explosion. Listening at excessive volume levels for prolonged periods should also be avoided to protect your hearing.
Sprout products undergo thorough quality assurance inspections. If you notice any abnormal phenomena, such as the device becoming excessively hot, emitting odor, being deformed, abraded, or cut, immediately stop using the product and contact Sprout customer support.
At the end of their useful life, the Harmonic 3.0 headphones should be recycled through your local e-waste collection point. Consult your local council if you are unsure about the appropriate disposal method.
Sprout provides a 24-month warranty to the original owner against defects in material and workmanship under normal use and service. This warranty does not cover misuse of the product, and liability will not exceed the purchase price.
