Please check with your car manufacturer to ensure your car supports CAN or K-line. JBL DRG only works with CAN and K-line to get the engine data for engine sound simulation. If your car does support CAN or K-line, please launch the JBL DRG app and check the engine sound volume bar (the right column with button marked with “E”) in the “Sound Mode” section to make sure it is not turned off.

Please use an OBD II extension cable in this case. An extension cable is not included in the package but they are readily available for purchase on-line.

When you place the two Free earphones in the charging case, you will see a white led ring light up on both of them. At the same time, some of the four dot-leds on the charging case will light up to indicate the battery level of the case battery. When the earphones are fully charged, the white led ring goes out on each of them. When both are fully charged, the charging case charging level leds go out too.

The JBL Free automatically switches from stereo to mono when making or taking phone calls. Voice calls will only come through the right ear piece for a more natural call experience.

In the event that left and right ear piece pairing is lost, power on both ear pieces and press the buttons 3 times on each ear piece to initiate re-pair.

In the event that ear pieces do not re-pair automatically to paired Bluetooth device, power off ear pieces individually by press and hold the buttons for 5 seconds. To enter Bluetooth pairing mode when ear pieces are powered off, press and hold on buttons of both earpieces for 8 seconds. Re-pair the right ear piece with desired Bluetooth device when LED indicator on right ear piece alternates between blue and white LED lights.

Remove ear pieces from the case. Both ear pieces should automatically connect to each other. Wireless connections are automatically established when the headphones are taken out of the case. To pair to a different device, press and hold the Right ear piece for 5 seconds as it alternates between blue and white LED lights. Make sure that the device you are attempting to connect to is in pairing mode. The JBL Free should display on discoverable devices within 3-8 seconds. Choose JBL Free and the headphones will connect after you hear the audio confirmation tone.

Remove the Right ear piece from the case. (It should automatically enter into pairing mode and will alternate between blue and white LED) Make sure the unit you are trying to connect to is in pairing mode. It should recognize the JBL Free within 3-8 seconds. Choose "JBL Free" to connect.

The JBL Free has an IPX5 rating that helps protect the headphones from sweat and moisture.

The JBL Free X does not feature volume control. In order to adjust the volume, you must manually increase/decrease from your device.

PSAP (Personal Sound Amplification) is a new feature accessible within the JBL Headphones App. When this feature is turned on, it works similar to Ambient Aware, but it focuses on picking up vocal frequencies in front of you. 

 

1. GAIN: The Personal Sound Amplification function is designed to amplify sound in the vocal range, it can assist users with (limited) hearing loss to maintain conversations more easily, especially in noisy environments. It should then amplify the speech of the person sitting across from you, not the general ambient sound as with Ambient Aware. The algorithm uses beamforming to pick out the voice from the other sounds, much like what happens during a phone call, but instead of focusing on your own voice it focuses on the voice further away from you. The gain setting allows you to amplify those vocal frequencies.

 

2. BALANCE: The balance setting adjusts the amplification effect between your left and right ears using the slider. When set to 0 (in the middle), both ears will receive the same amplification, but depending on the user’s personal needs/preferences, they can focus the amplification more towards either the left or right ear. 

 

Personi-Fi 2.0 is a new feature available through the JBL Headphones App. This feature helps to personalize the sound using the best possible sound curve based on your hearing capabilities. It will first ask a few questions, and then check your current ambient audio. You will be informed that this step should be completed in a quiet environment. It will play a series of test tones in all the different frequencies wherein after each frequency test tone is played, it will ask you what is the lowest volume setting you can hear. Nine different sounds will be played in each ear (18 in total).

Simply press and release the button when you hear a sound. After it goes through all the test tones, it then calculates the best sound for your ears based on the results. It allows you to demo the results by playing a track. You will be able to toggle it on/off to hear the difference.

If you still wish to use JBL Xtreme with the JBL Portable app, please connect it with Apple devices with iOS 13 or below, or connect it with Android devices.

The Checklist

Let us walk-through a list of things needed to ensure every requirement is met.

1. Check your mobile device if that is able to connect to same Wireless network.
2. Make sure you are within range of your Wireless router.
3. Check the Wireless signal on your mobile device, does it have a weak signal then move closer to the router.
4. Try both Wireless network bands 2.4GHz and 5GHz in case one of them are failing.
   1. You will have longer range with 2.4GHz, but less performance and most of the times a crowded network (many devices are using 2.4GHz band).
   2. You will have less interference with 5GHz and higher performance, however, the range of the 5GHz network has shorter range.
5. Try using a different mobile device, if you have one.
6. Reboot your Wireless network router and your mobile device.

Watch the video below for help with setting up your Google Assistant device.

Wireless Network Extender

Some houses or apartments can be too big for one Wireless network router to cover it all.
Let's talk about the issues that might appear with an Extender network.

1. Network Extenders that will help cover poor signal in your home, often results in poor connection and low speed performance.
2. Often the Network Extender is a low budget device or not suited for having too many devices attached to it.
3. Placement of the speaker is crucial as you can put it in a place where it could connect to either main Wireless router or the Extender, that will confuse Wireless network devices.
4. To solve this issue, try move the speaker closer to main router or have fewer devices attached to your Wireless Extender.
5. In addition, always use 5GHz connection between your Network extender and main router (best solution and performance).

One Wireless Network Name (SSID)

1. You may have set the Wireless Network SSID (Wi-Fi network name) to one big Wireless network (With a main router + Extender(s).
2. If the speaker is within range of both Wireless networks (Main router & Extender) then it can get confused with which one to connect to.
3. To solve this issue, using two different name for your extended network will help with the performance of the Speaker and Google Assistant request.

 

If the left ear pod is silent, please perform a new pairing with the right pod like shown in the quick-start guide.
Take them out of the charging case and click the  center button on both the left and the right pod 3 times.
This forces a new pairing between the pods, and the left pod should automatically pair with the right pod from now on once you remove both pods from the charging case.

If you still cannot get the Left ear to play, please perform a factory reset by placing both pods in the charging case, while the charging case is charging. Now press the button on the right pod, and hold it for more than 5 seconds. You have now reset to factory settings. (Please note: If you have performed a factory reset, you will need to remove the headphones or "forget this device" from any smart phone or tablet they were once connected to. This will allow your device to now search for the newly restored headphones under BT devices)


The right pod is the primary, which is connected to your source, usually a smartphone.
The left pod is the secondary, which connects to the right pod.

Microphone Cleaning (handheld mics)

There are two very important reasons to keep your microphone clean.

1. Hygiene/Germs, especially when a mic is used by multiple people, can unknowingly be spread.
2. Dried spit, dust, dirt and debris can build up in the screen and sponge, negatively affecting the microphones’ ability to accurately pick up and reproduce the voice or instrument.

To clean the microphone…

1. Remove/Unscrew the grille from the microphone, turning counter-clockwise.

2. Remove the foam from the inside of the grille.

 

3. Wash the foam with warm water and dish soap.
4. Clean the grille with any household non-abrasive disinfectant/cleaner.
5. Thoroughly dry both the grille and the foam.
6. Insert the foam into the grill.
7. Screw the grille back onto the microphone, turning clockwise.

 

NOTE: For quality purposes, it is recommended that the screen of the microphone be cleaned once per month when used on a regular basis. For hygienic purposes, when used by multiple people, cleaning is recommended more often, possibly even nightly.

Yes. This headphone has a built in microphone. To answer a call, press the power button which is located on the Left Ear Cup for 1 second. If you wish to hang up the call, press and hold the power button for 2 seconds.

If the wireless mic is out of signal range, you will experience drop outs or no sound. Once range is reestablished, the speaker should automatically detect the mic and resume connection within less than 3 sec. 

When a wireless mic is connected, the speaker will play a notification sound once. If two wireless mics are connected at the same time, there may be a 1 sec gap between the two notification sounds. 

If one of the wireless mics is not working, we recommend the following: 

1. Turn off the speaker
2. Turn on the mic and place it on top of the speaker
3. Turn on the speaker
4. The speaker should automatically pair with the new mic within 3 min and play a notification sound 
 

Below you can see the placements of the microphones on some of our headphone models:

Live Pro+ TWS


Tour Pro+ TWS


Tour One

Make sure both the QuantumENGINE software and the headset's firmware is updated to the most recent version, and that the microphone is plugged all the way in.

While using the Wired Aux Connection, the microphone will be switched off.

To resolve this issue, it is always recommended to pause or stop music playback on one Computer/PC/Laptop before multi-point switching to another device (Phones, Tablets) for music playback.

If the issue persists, we recommend to restart both the product and the Computer/PC/Laptop.

This product features Multi-Point Connection which allows you to be connect to two devices at the same time. Effortlessly switch from listening to music on your portable device to a call from your phone.

Your JBL speaker is waterproof with IPX7 rating. (IPX7 means it can survive immersion in 1 meter/3.3 feet for up to 30 minutes.) To maintain the looks and functions of your speaker, please make sure to rinse it with fresh water after using it at a swimming pool or the ocean, then dry off all covers and areas where water can gather. The standard for waterproofing is for tap water. Chemicals and salt in your pool or the ocean can damage the waterproof seals or harm the surface finish over time if not rinsed off after use.

1. Insert both earbuds into the charging case.
2. Try to click 5 times on both left and right earbuds button simultaneously, to reconnect left and right earbuds.
 

Try below steps. Attach the charger so the device is charging. While charging: First try to hold the "Volume +" and "Phone" buttons at the same time for more than 3 seconds (this resets the Flip 3 to factory settings). If this does not help, press and hold the "Volume +" and "Link" buttons for more then 10 seconds (this will exit demo mode). As a last step, short press on the "Volume -" & "Volume +" & "Phone" buttons. If the device will still not turn on, it has a defect.

Yes, rinse it under a faucet or under the shower, but not under full water pressure.

Voice commands can only be triggered by the user who registered them during setup.

Tap-hold on the right ear bud forcefully to reconnect heart rate. If this does not work, Hold the middle button to turn off, then back on your headphones.

With some phones, such as iPhones and some Android models, volume is synchronized while Bluetooth is used, and levels below volume setting 6 (tested with iPhone 6 and iPhone 5s) and volume setting 5 on most Android devices will cause the GO to enter standby after some minutes. If you want to play softer while still using your iPhone as a source, please change to cabled connection from the headphone output to the AUX input of GO. This will make it possible for you to set the GO's volume at its minimum step, and then control total level on the telephone. Of course, if source level from the telephone is set extremely low, the GO will go into standby again, because GO needs a certain level to keep playing. Alternatively, use a phone which does not synchronize volume as source. Many Android phones do not synchronize volume, so by using such a phone, you can adjust GO to its lowest level, adjusting total level independently, even via Bluetooth. This will usually result in music volume at the desired level.

Some of the DJ EQ curves have been removed from the My JBL Headphones app. Harman will ‘continuously’ update the My JBL Headphones app with new DJ sound-curves as this number changes based on who we sign agreements with and when.

We are sorry about this problem. EuP regulations require that electronics go into full off after some time. Unfortunately, this means that the soundbar cannot be woken up again after half an hour. It is necessary to use the ON/OFF switch.

No, your subwoofer is not defective at all! This is normal and by design of the product after it has been paired for a longer period of time.
