FAQs & How-Tos

15 results
  • No. The JBL Free does not feature volume control. It features pause/play and track control.
  • Press and hold the RIGHT center button for 1-2 seconds.
  • Place both ear pods in the charging box, while the charging box is plugged into a power source. Press and hold the button on the Right pod for about 5 seconds. The LED on the pod will turn off and then turn back on again. This restores to factory defaults. (Please note that charging must take place for reset to work.) It also may be necessary to remove or forget the earbuds from the list of paired Bluetooth devices in order to pair again.
  • 1. Put the earbuds back into the charging case and close the lid. 2. Press and hold the buttons on both the left and right earbuds for more than 2 seconds. Alternatively, only press and hold one of the buttons to just turn off the left or right earbud as required. 3. Use the Auto-off function via the JBL Headphone app (Only applicable for headphones supported in our JBL Headphone app).
  • What you are experiencing is normal. The JBL Free will automatically switch to mono mode on the RIGHT ear when the call starts. After the call ends stereo music mode will automatically resume.
  • No. There is no way to turn off the blue LED light from our wireless headphones unless they are turned off.
  • 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.
