CONNECTING TO PAIRED DEVICES
Once the Rumble is turned on, it will automatically connect with the last paired Bluetooth device that is on and within range. If the Rumble is not connected automatically, tap the Multifunction ( ) button once to initiate connection with last paired device. If the headset still does not connect, open the Bluetooth menu on your device and select “MEE audio Rumble” from the Bluetooth device list.
Note: On some computers, Bluetooth audio must be enabled manually every time you connect.
CONTROLS
The Rumble can control media and phone calls from a smartphone or tablet.
Adjusting Volume
Note: volume adjustments made while playing media will change the volume of the headset independently of the connected device. Raise or lower device volume as needed to further increase or decrease the overall volume. Some newer devices use AVRCP 1.3 Bluetooth Profile, which will allow the Rumble to control the device volume directly at all times.
Controlling Phone Calls
*If you answer a call from your phone when a headset is connected, most phones will activate the phone handset, not the headset. Press and hold the Multifunction button for 2 seconds to transfer the call to the headset
Controlling Media Playback
*You may need to focus on the media player application by bringing it up on the screen for initial playback to start.**Not all media players support this functionality.Note: If you answer or make a call while listening to media, the media will be paused until the call has ended.
Additional Functionality
MULTIPOINT
Multipoint PairingMultipoint allows two Bluetooth devices to be connected to the Rumble simultaneously. Both devices will need to be paired before multipoint can be used.To use two Bluetooth devices with the Rumble, first pair them by following the pairing procedure described in the pairing with bluetooth devices section for each device and then turn off the headset.When turned on again, the Rumble will automatically attempt to connect to the 2 most recently-paired devices, as long as they have Bluetooth enabled and are within range. If a device that has already been paired does not connect automatically, select “MEE audio Rumble” from the Bluetooth menu of the device.
If you no longer wish to connect to multiple devices, disable Bluetooth on the device you do not want connected to the Rumble or remove the “MEE audio Rumble” pairing from the Bluetooth menu of the device.
Multipoint Functionality
*It may take up to 10 seconds for audio to switch
Note: Incoming calls will always take precedence over other audio. If two phones are connected to the Rumble, an incoming call on either phone will trigger a ringtone alert and media playback will be paused if the call is answered. Once the call is terminated, the Rumble will reactivate the original device and resume playback (with most media applications).For phone call controls, see the controlling phone calls section.
LED INDICATOR LIGHTS
The Rumble has a status indicator light on the left earcup and a charging indicator light on the right earcup. They display the status of the headphones as follows:
USING AS A WIRED HEADPHONE
The Rumble can be used as a wired headphone by plugging one end of the included stereo audio cable into the jack on the left earcup and the other end into any audio device with a standard 3.5mm headphone jack. This allows use when the battery is depleted and with devices that do not have Bluetooth (such in-flight entertainment systems) or aren’t paired.
The Rumble can be used wired while also connected via Bluetooth to another device; Bluetooth audio takes precedence over wired audio. Wired audio will be partially muted whenever a signal is transmitted via Bluetooth and will resume approximately 4 seconds after the Bluetooth transmission ends.Note: the built-in microphone of the Rumble will not work in wired mode.
WARNING
Using headphones at high to moderate volumes for extended periods of time will result in permanent hearing damage. It is advised you keep volume levels moderate to low at all times for your safety. Do not use while driving a car, cycling, operating machinery, or performing other activities that require hearing surrounding sounds.
It is advised to turn the volume on your device all the way down before connecting your headphones, then gradually increase the volume until you reach a comfortable listening level.
