Usage Features
Charging the Earbuds:
The earbuds come with a built-in rechargeable battery. Before first use, it's recommended to fully charge the earbuds. A full charge of the battery takes around 1 hour for each earbud. When the battery is fully charged, the LED light will turn blue. To charge, simply place the earbuds in their charging case. The case itself is charged via a supplied USB cable, connecting it to a computer or a USB wall adapter. When the battery is low, the LED will flash red and emit three tones. When fully charged, the LED will turn blue.
Syncing the Earbuds for the First Time:
To ensure both earbuds are turned on, press the multi-function button on both earbuds for 1 second. Then, press and hold the multi-function buttons for 8 seconds on both earbuds simultaneously. Wait for 3 seconds until both earbuds flash blue. This indicates that your earbuds are now synced together.
Pairing the Earbuds:
After syncing, follow these steps to pair your earbuds to your smart phone or tablet:
- Ensure the earbuds are turned off. If they are not, please turn off the earbuds first before pairing.
- On the earbud you wish to use, press and hold the multi-function button for 8 seconds until the red and blue LED flash alternate. This indicates your earbud is now in pairing mode.
- Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your phone or music device. Refer to the manufacturer's instructions for how to enable Bluetooth on your device.
- Place the earbuds and the Bluetooth device to which you would like to pair it within the operating distance (recommended keeping the two devices no further than 2 feet apart).
- Once you have activated Bluetooth on your device, select the earbuds "TNB BUDDY" from the list of available Bluetooth devices.
- If required, enter the PIN code "0000" and confirm the entry.
- Please note, pairing mode on the earbuds will last for two minutes. If no devices are paired after two minutes, the earbuds will automatically return to standby mode.
- If pairing is unsuccessful, turn off the earbuds first and repair following the aforementioned steps. Once you have paired the earbuds with a device, the earbuds will remember this device and will pair automatically when the device's Bluetooth is activated and in range.
- You do not need to re-pair any previously connected devices. Your earbuds can pair up to two multi-point devices. You can reconnect a previously paired device without going through the pairing or PIN process on up to two devices.
