How to Pair

1. Once you turn on your Maxell Bluetooth earbuds or headphones, they should enter a “pairing mode”. Your Maxell product will either say “pairing mode”, or have a sound that indicates this. There are also flashing LED lights on your device to indicate you are in pairing mode. If you are having trouble, check the manual for your specific Maxell product. Some may not enter pairing mode immediately after powering on, and require a different action.

2. The next step is to open the Bluetooth settings on your personal device. Make sure Bluetooth is turned on, and find your Maxell product under the list of available connections. ( Check your product manual to find the “name” of your product, or how it will appear in your Bluetooth settings ). Click the name to connect. Your Maxell product should tell you it is connected, or have a sound indicating this. There are also LED light indicators on your device to show you are in connected.

What is Bluetooth?

Bluetooth is a wireless technology that allows devices to communicate with each other over short distances. Think of it like an invisible wire connecting your devices, such as your phone, headphones, speakers, or earbuds, so they can share information without needing physical cables.
