Initializing the headset to restore factory settings

If the headset does not operate correctly even after resetting, initialize the headset.

Place the headset into the charging case, leave the lid of the charging case open, then press and hold the buttons on both the left and right units for about 10 seconds. Release your fingers when the indicators (red) of the headset start flashing.
