To pair your Bose Around-Ear Headphones, turn on the headphones and press and hold the Bluetooth button until you hear "Ready to pair." Then, on your device, go to the Bluetooth settings and select your Bose headphones from the list of available devices.
First, ensure that the headphones are charged and in pairing mode. Check if the device's Bluetooth is on and within range. Try resetting the headphones by turning them off and on again. If the issue persists, try clearing the Bluetooth device list on your headphones and re-pairing.
To reset your headphones, turn them off and then press and hold the power button for 10 seconds until you hear "Bluetooth device list cleared." This will reset the headphones to factory settings.
To update the firmware, download and install the Bose Connect app on your smartphone. Connect your headphones to the app, and if an update is available, you will be prompted to install it. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the update.
Use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe the exterior surfaces of the headphones. Avoid using liquids or sprays directly on the headphones. For the ear cushions, use a damp cloth with mild soap, but ensure they are thoroughly dried before use.
Check if the headphones are properly connected to your device. Ensure the volume is turned up on both the headphones and the device. Try connecting the headphones to a different device to rule out device-specific issues.
To maximize battery life, turn off the headphones when not in use and avoid exposure to extreme temperatures. Charge the headphones regularly and use the Bose Connect app to monitor battery levels and optimize settings.
Bose typically offers a one-year limited warranty for its headphones, covering defects in materials and workmanship. For exact terms and conditions, refer to the warranty card provided with your headphones or visit the Bose website.
Some models of Bose headphones can be used while charging. However, it is recommended to refer to the user manual for your specific model to confirm this functionality.
Use the Bose Connect app to adjust the noise cancellation levels. Open the app, connect your headphones, and navigate to the noise cancellation settings to choose your preferred level.
