BLUETOOTH® – CONNECTION TIPS
Your right Jaybird RUN earbud is the master (main) earbud. The right earbud pairs and connects to your audio device and to the left earbud. For best Bluetooth performance, try to reduce the distance between your right earbud and your audio device. For example, try to have your audio device in your right pocket or on your right arm if running with an arm band.
