1. To connect the Earebel headphones to a smartphone or any other Bluetooth®-enabled device, press the Play/Pause button (on the Soft-Touch-Control-Panel) for 5 seconds until the LED light alternately flashes blue and red. The headphones can now be found by the Bluetooth®-enabled device.

2. Switch on Bluetooth® on the Bluetooth®-enabled device.

3. Search for "Earebel", select it and connect the two devices.

4. As soon as the headphones and the Bluetooth®-enabled device are connected, only the blue LED lights up.

NOTE: To conserve battery power, the headphones will automatically turn off if there is no Bluetooth® connection for 5 minutes.

The "Earebel Bluetooth® headphones – powered by Earebel" use the Bluetooth® version "Vimicro 4.1".

The "Earebel Bluetooth® heaphones – Sound by JBL" use the Bluetooth® version "CSR V5.0 QC3003".

If your Bluetooth®-enabled device does not recognize the Earebel Bluetooth® headphones, we recommend that you check that the Bluetooth® version of your device is up to date and update it if necessary. For information on how to update your Bluetooth®-enabled device, please refer to the instructions for the respective device or to the manufacturer's website.

Your Bluetooth®-enabled device may have a higher Bluetooth® version installed. Normally every Bluetooth® version should be "backward compatible", but we have already experienced that this is only the case after a new update and troubleshooting of the respective version.
All further information and technical data for our headphones can be found on the "Technical Data" page.

We recommend to fully charge the battery before using your headphones for the first time.

To charge, please connect the Micro-USB cable to the socket on the left headphone and the USB plug to a power source (e.g. computer, USB charging plug, USB port in your car etc.).

The LED light flashes red during the charging process and turns off once the battery is fully charged. It takes approx. 2 hours for the battery to be fully charged.

All further information and technical data for our headphones can be found on the "Technical Data" page.

The battery of the Earebel Bluetooth® headphones have approx. 8 hours of operating on full volume and approx. 30 hours on standby (power on, but without Bluetooth® connection).

All further information and technical data for our headphones can be found on the "Technical Data" page.

The Earebel beanies and headbands of the Style- and Sport-Collection are also suitable for severe wool allergy sufferers. They are made of 100% acrylic yarn and synthetic-functional materials. If there is only a slight wool allergy, you can also try our Plait Long Beanies from the handmade Prime-Collection. These are made of a wool blend of 50% alpaca/50% acrylic. Alpaca wool is better than sheep's wool for allergy sufferers, because the hair of alpaca hardly contains lanolin (wool grease).

All information about the materials and yarns we use can be found on the page "Material Information".

To wash and clean the beanies and headbands, the headphones must be removed previously!

We recommend washing every model of the Earebel beanies and headbands - especially the handmade models of the Prime-/Handmade-collection - by hand and without fabric softener. Some of our models of the Style- and Sport-collection can be washed in the machine, but the shape of the materials is put to test by spinning and drying, so that the shape can be different after washing.

You can find exact washing information on the washing label in your Earebel beanie and headband.

It is best to wash by hand, do not bleach, do not dry wash, do not iron and do not tumble dry!

To install and integrate your Earebel Headphones into a Earebel Beanie or Headband correctly, please follow the picture- and/or video-tutorial on the page “How To Install”!

If you integrate your headphones correctly, the elastic black material around the headphone hole will not be visible anymore.

The Headphone with the Earebel logo “e” and the “Soft-Touch-Control-Pad” is always supposed to be on the left side. The headphone with the Earebel lettering “earebel” is always on the right side.

Installation:

1.  For Sport- and Prime-collection Beanies and Headbands put one headphone through the little black loop on the inside of your headgear. For all models with an inner fleece like the Prime-collection slip the headphones through the slit on the inside of the fleece lining.

2.  Now take your headphones and put them through the headphone hole from the inside to the outside. The headphones should now be on the outside of your headgear, only the little cable between the two headphones comes through the “ear-hole”.

3.  Then press the headphones from the outside into the black opening. If you do it correctly the black material will not be visible from the outside anymore and the headphone is in one line with your headgear.
