Pairing Photive earbuds with your device is a simple process. Follow these step-by-step instructions to connect your earbuds to your smartphone, tablet, or computer.
Step 1: Charge Your Earbuds
Ensure that your Photive earbuds are charged before attempting to pair them with your device. Use the provided USB cable to charge them if necessary.
Step 2: Turn on the Pairing Mode
Turn on your Photive earbuds by pressing and holding the power button. If this is the first time you are using them, they will automatically enter pairing mode. If they don’t enter pairing mode automatically, press and hold the power button or the pairing button (refer to your earbuds’ specific model instructions) until you see the LED indicator flashing red and blue, indicating that they are in pairing mode.
Step 3: Enable Bluetooth on Your Device
On your smartphone, tablet, or computer, go to the Bluetooth settings. This is typically found under Settings > Bluetooth for most devices, or in the Control Center for iOS devices. Ensure Bluetooth is turned on, which will allow your device to search for available Bluetooth connections.
Step 4: Locate Your Photive Earbuds on Your Device
With Bluetooth enabled on your device, you should see a list of available devices to connect to. Look for your Photive earbuds in this list. They may appear as “Photive BT Earbuds” or a similar name. If you’re unsure of the name, refer to the product’s manual for the specific model name.
Step 5: Connect Your Earbuds
Select your Photive earbuds from the list of available Bluetooth devices on your device. Your device may prompt you with a message to confirm the pairing. Accept the prompt to connect. Once connected, you should see a confirmation on your device, and the earbuds’ LED might display a solid color or turn off, depending on the model.
Step 6: Troubleshooting
If your Photive earbuds do not appear in the list of available devices, or if you are unable to connect, try the following troubleshooting steps:
- Ensure that your Photive earbuds are charged and within range of your device (typically around 10 meters or 30 feet without obstructions).
- Check if your Photive earbuds are already connected to another device. If so, disconnect them from that device first before trying to connect them to a new one.
- Restart the pairing process by turning off your earbuds and then putting them back into pairing mode. You can do this by pressing and holding the power/pairing button until the LED indicator flashes red and blue again.
- Restart your device’s Bluetooth function or the device itself, then try to pair again.
Conclusion
Following these steps should allow you to successfully pair your Photive earbuds with your device. Enjoy your wireless listening experience! If you still encounter issues, consult the user manual or contact Photive customer support for further assistance.
