Volume Adjustment
When using the earphones with the iPod via the adapter, the volume adjustment is made
on the earphones, not on the iPod. This ensures the highest quality signal at the
earphones.
Charging the Earphones
Charge the earphones for at least one hour before first use. A complete charge from a near-
empty battery will take about two hours. When charging, the LED glows yellow. When charging
is complete, the LED glows green if the unit is on. If the unit is off, the LED turns off when
charging is complete.
Overcharging
It is not possible to overcharge the earphones.
Battery life
• Up to 10 hours of listening time, depending on the iPod or other device.
• When there is less than one hour of use left, the LED slowly blinks green.
Auto Shut Off:
If the earphones are turned on but there is no music playing, the earphones will turn off after five
minutes.
Charging the Made for iPod® Adapter
The Made for iPod® adapter uses the power provided by the iPod battery and does not need
charging. Since it uses the iPod battery, use of the Made for iPod® adapter will reduce the
battery life of the iPod.
