The JBL Micro Wireless is not completely mute when I turn the volume on a Bluetooth source unit to minimum.

Even when reducing volume to minimum on the Bluetooth source unit, it does not reduce the audio signal to zero. In this case the Micro Wireless will playback music at a very low volume.

The Noise Cancellation we are using in our JBL TOUR Series

True Adaptive NC available on Tour One enables real-time monitoring of exterior surroundings and personal attributes like movement, hair, eyeglasses, and automatic adjustments to the NC performance and EQ.

If you don’t prefer the canceling performance's automatic change, you can get a fine-tuned canceling level by choosing “Everyday Mode” in the app.

Adaptive Noise Cancelling - available on Tour Pro+ TWS - listens to ambient environmental noises using external and internal mics then creates the inverse phase back to the listener creating the noise “canceling” effect.
The headphones also allow the listener to adapt or adjust noise cancellation through features like Ambient Aware and TalkThru.

The P and S speaker won't be associated successfully when pressing the association button twice on the primary speaker.

Make sure to press the association button once. If by mistake you pressed it more than once, there is a good chance that association does not take place. Wait until the association process is completed, which takes about 2 minutes, and repeat the process.

There are times when my smart phone stops charging when attached to the wireless charge arm on Smartbase.

This can be caused by the charge arm reaching its thermal temperature cutoff. This is a safety feature to prevent a potential risk. For proper heat dissipation, always be sure to have the charging arm in the open position when your smart phone is attached.

The reason for the LEDs is orange

If your LINK BAR has 4 orange LED lights in the front, this means you have "muted" the microphone which is located on the top of the speaker.
To unmute the LINK BAR use the "switch" and the front LEDs will stop illuminating orange. Now you can use the hot-words to interact with the Google Assistant/Google Search (varies from country).

Privacy information:
We call our button the "PrivacySwitch" for the moments when you don't want the bar to listen for the hot words.
Google has high privacy rules, and one of them is not to share end-user data with any third-party apps.

There is a small, oval dot on the inside of one of the ear cups. Is this used for anything?

There is a switch on the back panel of my SB450 which says "EQ - Wall Or Table". What is it for?

As explained in our Owner's manual, it will adjust the sound to match the placement of your Soundbar, wall or table. When against a wall, the sound reflection will be different than when on a table. This button adjusts the tonal quality to give you the best audio results in either setup.

Move the sub closer to the SOUNDBAR for testing and see if the signal picks up. 1: Turn off any wireless routers or devices that run on 2.4ghz signals, such baby monitors, cordless phones, etc. and test to see if the subwoofer connects. 2: Test with a movie or music with a lot of action scenes or bass. If it's just dialogue, you may not hear the subwoofer.

The voice assistant app must be open for it to work correctly. It can be opened from within the My JBL Headphones app by tapping the name of the required voice assistant after you have selected it for use and assigned a gesture to one of your earbuds to control it.
