PRODUCT OVERVIEW
CHARGING
Connect the charging cable to any powered USB port and to the charging port located on the headset’s remote control. Charge time is approximately 2 hours. The status indicator light will stay red while charging and turn blue when fully charged.
Note: For maximum sweat resistance, make sure that the USB port cover is closed completely after charging the headset.When the battery is low, the headset will say “battery low” and a red light on the remote will flash periodically.Apple® devices such as the iPhone®, iPad®, and iPad touch® will also display an on-screen headset better indicator while the X8 is connected.
WEARING THE EARPHONES
STEP 1: SELECT AND INSTALL THE CORRECT EARTIPSThe X8 is an in-ear headphone and relies on a tight seal between the eartips and your ear canals to deliver good bass response and overall sound quality. Four sizes of eartips are included to help you achieve the best fit. We recommend trying all of included eartips and selecting the ones that provide the best sound and comfort for your ears.
Choose eartips that:
- Allow the earphone to fit flush in your ear
- Seal with your ear canal and reduce outside noise when inserted
- Provide the best bass response
Install eartips as shown. Make sure eartips are installed securely before use.

STEP 2: INSERT INTO EARS
The X8 earphones feature an over-the-ear design with Flex-wire earhooks.
To put on the X8, first identify the left and right earpieces as indicated by the “L” and “R” markings. They are not interchangeable.
Place the cable behind your neck, route the earhooks around your ears, and put the earpieces in your ears. Adjust each earpiece until it fits flush in the ear and the eartip seals in the ear canal.

STEP 3 (OPTIONAL): TIGHTEN CABLE CINCHAdjust the cable cinch to reduce cable slack for a more secure and comfortable fit while exercising, jogging, or performing other physical activity.
WEARING THE EARPHONES (CONT.)
CORRECT FITThe earphone sits flush in the ear and the cable is secure behind the ear. When worn correctly, the earphones will reduce outside noise and deliver good bass impact.
If you do not get much bass or hear tinny sound with excessive treble presence, re-adjust the fit of the earphones in your ears and/or try a different size of eartips.Note: If you must remove and reinsert the earphones while working out, avoid getting sweat in the nozzle as this may lead to a temporary reduction/loss of sound.
(OPTIONAL) IMPROVING PHONE CALL PERFORMANCEFor best microphone performance during phone calls, the X8can be worn with the wire in the front to improve microphone positioning. Orient the micro phone towards your mouth to ensure the clearest and loudest voice pickup.
BLUETOOTH PAIRING
Your headset must be paired to a Bluetooth device before it can be used. It is only necessary to pair your headset once with each device.Make sure the X8 is turned off and within 3 feet (1 meter) of your device. Put the headset in pairing mode by holding the Multifunction button for about 5 seconds until the status indicator light begins to flash red and blue in an alternating pattern and the headphone says “Pairing”.
Phones and tabletsOpen the Settings menu and select Bluetooth. If Bluetooth is not on, turn it on. Select “Search for Devices” or “Refresh” if your phone or tablet does not automatically search for new devices.
Other devicesVisit www.MEEaudio.com/Bluetooth for pairing & setup information.
Wait until you see “MEE audio X8” on the screen of your device. Select it and follow any further prompts to pair. Use “0000” if a pin is required. Once connected, the headset will say “Connected” and the blue indicator light will flash two times every 3 seconds.
If pairing fails, please refer to your device’s user manual for further information. Visit the Bluetooth Support Page at www.MEEaudio.com/Bluetooth for instructional pairing videos and troubleshooting information.
CONNECTING TO PAIRED DEVICES
When powered on, the X8 will automatically connect with the most recently paired and/or connected Bluetooth device that is powered on and within range. If the headset does not connect automatically, open the Bluetooth menu on your device and select “MEE audio X8” from the Bluetooth device list.
CONNECTING TO MORE THAN ONE DEVICE (MULTIPOINT)
Multipoint is a feature that allows two Bluetooth devices to be connected to the X8 simultaneously. To use two Bluetooth devices with the X8, first pair each one by following the pairing procedure described in the BLUETOOTH PAIRING section and then power the headset off. When powered on again, the headset will 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 X8” from the Bluetooth menu of the device.Note: Headset operating range and battery life may be reduced when maintaining two connections via Multipoint
MULTIPOINT FUNCTIONALITY
To switch between the two devices, pause audio playback on the active device and start audio playback on the other connected device. It takes several seconds for the audio to switch.
Incoming calls will always take precedence over media. When a call comes in, the X8 will automatically activate the device with the incoming call. Some devices, such as computers and standalone audio transmitters, may not allow audio switching except when a phone call occurs.If you no longer wish to connect to multiple devices, disable Bluetooth on the device you do not want connected to the X8 or disconnect the “MEE audio X8” using the Bluetooth menu of that device.
FUNCTIONALITY & CONTROLS
* You may need to bring your preferred media player application up on the screen for media playback to start.** Not all devices support this functionality. For more information, refer to the user manual for your device.
