CHARGING YOUR HEADSET

While charging, your Razer Opus will continuously show its battery level on
the status indicator, as shown here:
WIRELESS MODE
While powered off, press and hold the power button until the status indicator
starts blinking blue. An audio prompt will notify you that your Razer Opus is
searching for compatible Bluetooth devices. Follow your device’s instructions
to pair it with your Razer Opus. Once the headset is paired, the status
indicator will briefly change to static blue.
WIRED MODE
Connect your Razer Opus to any 3.5mm audio socket using the provided 3.5mm
audio cable. You can also use the airline headphone adapter along with the
3.5mm audio cable for in-flight audio jacks. As long as your headset is
powered on, you can still use ANC and Ambient Awareness in wired mode.

SAFETY AND MAINTENANCE
SAFETY GUIDELINES
In order to achieve maximum safety while using your Razer Opus, we suggest
that you adopt the following guidelines:
Should you have trouble operating the device properly and troubleshooting does
not work, unplug the device and contact the Razer hotline or go to
support.razer.com for assistance.
Do not take apart the device {doing so will void your warranty} and do not
attempt to operate it under abnormal current loads.
Keep the device away from liquid, humidity or moisture. Operate the device
only within the specific temperature range of 0° C {32 ° F} to 40° C {104 °
F}. Should the temperature exceed this range, unplug and/or switch off the
device in order to let the temperature stabilize to an optimal level.
The device isolates external ambient sounds even at low volumes, resulting in
lowered awareness of your external surroundings. Please remove the device when
engaging in any activities that requires active awareness of your
surroundings.
Listening to excessively loud volumes over extended periods of time can damage
your hearing.
Furthermore, legislation of certain countries permits a maximum sound level of
86db to affect your hearing for 8 hours a day. We therefore recommend that you
reduce the volume to a comfortable level when listening for prolonged periods
of time. Please, take good care of your hearing.
MAINTENANCE AND USE
The Razer Opus requires minimum maintenance to keep it in optimum condition.
Once a month we recommend you clean it using a soft cloth or cotton swab to
prevent dirt buildup. Do not use soap or harsh cleaning agents.
BATTERY WARNING
The Razer Opus contains a Li-ion rechargeable battery. In general, the life
expectancy of such batteries is dependent upon usage. If you suspect that the
Li-ion rechargeable battery inside the Razer Opus may be drained {has a low
charge}, try charging it.
Caution: Do not open, mutilate, or expose to conducting materials
{metal}, moisture, liquid, fire, or heat. Doing so may cause batteries to leak
or explode, resulting in personal injury. Battery life varies with usage.
