   OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

1. First Time Power On: Auto Pairing

2. Standard Power On: Auto-Linking Mode

    After the first time, whenever you power on the earbuds, t

he blue LED will flash 

slowly indicating that your earbuds are in Auto-Linking Mode (trying to re-link to a 

previously paired device) that is within the normal pairing range of about 33-feet. If 

your earbuds do not find a previously paired device that is in range and turned ‘on’ 

within 3 minutes, they will power OFF to extend the battery life.

4. Power Off

    To turn earbuds ‘Off’ at any time, PRESS and HOLD the Multi-Function Button (    ) on 

the control dongle for about 3 seconds. You will hear the voice prompt say “Power 

Off”. The red LED flashes three times and then the power shuts off.

    The first time you power on the earbuds, place only the left ear bud in your left ear so 

you can hold the control dongle in your right hand to see the control buttons and the 

LED indicator and still hear the confirming voice prompts in your left ear. Once the ear 

buds have turned on and paired with your Bluetooth device,  insert the right ear bud 

in your right ear.

PRESS and HOLD

 the 

Multi-Function Button

 (    ) on the control dongle for about 3 

seconds until you hear the “Power On” voice prompt. 

   The first time the eabuds are powered on

 they will enter auto-pairing mode, indicated 

by flashing red and blue LEDs and a “Pairing” voice prompt. 

a) Make sure Bluetooth is enabled on your device (check in Settings or Options). 
b) “iHome iB76” will apear on your device’s Bluetooth menu. 
c) Select “iHome iB76 to complete pairing. You will hear the voice prompt say “Your 

device is connected”. 

NOTE

: If your Bluetooth device asks for a Password or a PIN 

to complete the pairing process, enter “0000” on the keypad of your device.

    You are now ready to begin streaming music wirelessly from your Bluetooth device to 

your iHome iB76 Bluetooth earbuds.

2. Charging Your iHome Ear Buds 

Your iHome Bluetooth ear buds operate on a built-in rechargeable battery. Although 

the battery was fully charged when it left our factory, the battery can lose power even 

during periods of non-use.  Make sure to charge the battery before using the phone 

for the first time.

To charge the battery connect the larger plug of the included 

USB charging cable to the powered USB port of a computer or 

a USB/AC adapter and then connect the smaller plug to the 

USB charging port on side of the control dongle as shown in 

the illustration. 
The Charging Indicator will glow red while the ear buds are charging. The indicator will 

turn off when the ear buds are fully charged and ready to use.
When fully charged the battery should provide up to 7 hours of talk time or music 

playing time at a normal listening level. If operated at maximum volume the music 

playing time will be reduced.  

NOTE

: While charging, the earbud power will turn off to 

conserve battery power and minimize charging time.

3. Wearing Your iHome Ear Buds

The ‘M’ size silicon tips were installed on the ear buds at our factory. 

If you wish to change to either the ‘S’ or ‘L’ size tips simply pull the ‘M’ size tips off 

the ear buds and replace them with the ‘S’ or ‘L’ size tips. Be 

sure to push the ‘S’ or ‘L’ size tips on to the ear buds until they 

are firmly seated on the tubes so that the tips do not come off 

the ear buds when you remove them from your ears. Using the 

proper size tips will insure that you get the best possible seal in 

your ear canal and provide the best audio quality.
The recommended usage is to position the cable behind your neck before inserting 

the ear buds in your ears. The ear buds should be worn with the control dongle on 

your right side.

Note: Noise isolation ear buds like the iB76 are designed to provide a good seal in 

your ears and block outside sounds. You should not use noise isolation ear buds in 

situations that require you to hear outside warning sounds.
