First Time Use
Charging the Battery
The BH-C26 Headphones have a built-in, rechargeable lithium-polymer battery. To avoid
damage, do not attempt to remove the battery. The full performance of the battery is achieved
after two or three charging-discharging cycles. Charge the battery fully before first use.
1. Connect the USB cable to the headphones.
2. Connect to the correct outlet (wall, computer, car charger).
3. When the charger is connected to the headphones, the red indicator light will turn on.
Note:
Charging the battery fully may take up to 2 hours.
4. When the battery is fully charged, the red indicator light will turn off. Disconnect the charger
from the headset and the outlet. The headset is ready for use.
Note:
Overcharging could reduce the life of the battery. A charged battery will lose its capacity
if it is not used on a regular basis.
Important!
Ensure that the battery is fully charged if the headphones are not used for a long period of
time. To avoid a complete discharge of the battery, charge the headphones at least every six (6)
months.
Battery Notes
• A fully charged battery provides up to four (4) hours of talk-time, three (3) hours music
playback, and up to seven (7) hours of standby time. Talk and standby times vary depending
on mobile phones or other compatible Bluetooth® devices, settings, styles, etc.
• When the battery power is low, the headset will beep every 30 seconds and the red indicator
light will flash every seven (7) seconds.
• When using with your iPhone, an additional battery meter feature will display the remaining
battery on your phone’s touch screen.
