Charging Your Headphones
IMPORTANT: Your headphones operate on a built-in rechargeable lithium-ion battery. Although the battery was fully charged when it left our factory, like all rechargeable batteries it can begin to discharge during periods of non- use. We recommend that you charge the battery for at least 2.5 hours before first time use.
- Connect the micro USB plug on the charging cable to the micro USB port on the headphone.
- Connect the standard USB plug on the charging cable to any standard USB power port such as found on a notebook computer, or the charging adapter for an iPod, iPhone, etc.
The Power/Charging/Pairing indicator will glow RED while the headphone is charging. The indicator will turn off when the battery is fully charged.
Reminder: Allow the battery to charge fully before first time use. Normal recharge time should take about 2.5 hours. When fully charged the battery provides up to 16 hours of working time, or 90 days of standby time.
Because your B90 headphones use Bluetooth version 4.1 the battery level indicator of the headphones may also appear on your iPhone home screen, usually adjacent to the phone’s own battery level indicator, if your specific phone supports this display function.
Multi-Function Button (MFB)
Pressing the Multi-function button (MFB) turns the headphones “On”, initiates pairing, answers/ends phone calls, controls Play/Pause function and turns the headphones “Off’.
Switching the Power On and Off
- Press and hold the Multi-function button for approximately 3 seconds. The voice prompt will say “Power On” and the LED indicator turns BLUE and flashes two times per second. If the headphones have not been previously paired to a Bluetooth device, the headphones will enter auto-pairing mode.
- When the power is “On” press and hold the Multi-function button for approximately 3 seconds. The voice prompt will say “Power Off”. The LED indicator remains on briefly and then shuts off. This indicates that the power is “Off”.
Manually Pairing With a Bluetooth Enabled Smartphone or Music Player For
The First Time
If your smartphone, music player, tablet, or computer is Bluetooth enabled, you may pair these headphones with your device to listen to music and make or receive calls as long as the two devices are within the Bluetooth operating range of approximately 33-feet of each other.
Note: Your headphones must be in the Power “Off” mode to begin the manual pairing process.
- Make sure that your B90 headphones are switched “Off”. Make sure that your smartphone or music player is “On”.
- Press and hold the Multi-function button on your B90 headphones for about 6 seconds until you hear the “Power On” and “Pairing” voice prompts. The LED indicator begins alternately flashing blue and red to indicate it is trying to pair with a compatible device.
- If necessary, turn on the Bluetooth function of your phone or music player so that it begins searching for a compatible device.
- “ekid B90” should appear on your phone or music player’s compatible devices list. You may also see a message such as “Not Paired”. Tap on that message to complete the pairing process. If your phone or music player asks for a “password” to complete the pairing process, enter ‘0000’ on the keypad of your phone or music player.
- When pairing is successful the screen on your phone should show “ekid B90 Connected” or similar message and you will hear the voice prompt say “Your device is connected”. The LED indicator on the B90 headphones will begin flashing blue two times per second. Your headphones are now ready for use.
NOTE: If your B90 headphones are not able to find a Bluetooth device that is in range and “discoverable” after 3 minutes, the headphones will automatically power “Off” to preserve the battery.
Auto-Linking With A Previously Paired Device
If your B90 headphones were previously paired with a Bluetooth enabled smartphone or music player they will attempt to auto-link with that device again whenever that device is within the Bluetooth operating range.
Press and hold the Multi-function button on your B90 headphones for about 3 seconds until you hear the “Power On” voice prompt. If a previously paired device is found to be within range and turned ‘On’ the B90 will re-link with it automatically. You will hear the voice prompt say “Your device is connected.”
Note: If no previously paired device is found after 3 minutes the auto- linking function stops and your B90 headphones shut off automatically to preserve the battery life.
Wearing Your Headphones
Your B90 Bluetooth headphones are supplied with padded ear cushions for long lasting comfort. The headband can be extended to accommodate almost any head size. There are ‘L’ and ‘R’ markings on the inside of the headband, When the headphones are worn properly the controls will be on your right side.
