I can’t hear callers or music.| Solutions:
• Ensure headset is paired and connected to your phone.
• Reposition headset on your ear as the sensors may not detecting it is on.
• Reset your sensors (following above instructions) as they may need recalibrating.

My headset will not report 7 hours of talk time after it is fully charged.| Solutions:
• Ensure headset is paired and connected to your phone.
• Disable HD Voice (Wideband Audio) which uses more power.
• Completely discharge your headset’s battery then give it a full charge.
• Some phones have less efficient Bluetooth connections and thus will not allow for an optimal talk time of 7 hours. The talk time remaining estimate is partly calculated by your historical use so inconstancies in an estimate may occur based on your particular use patterns.
