Using the Touch Controls
Brookstone wireless earbuds are equipped with intuitive touch controls that allow you to effortlessly manage your audio playback, adjust volume, and handle calls without reaching for your device. Familiarize yourself with the following touch gestures to make the most of your earbuds:

By leveraging these touch controls, you can seamlessly navigate your audio playback and calls, all while keeping your device safely stowed away. Experiment with the touch gestures to familiarize yourself with the functionality and discover how they can enhance your overall listening experience.
Charging the Earbuds
Ensuring that your Brookstone wireless earbuds are adequately charged is essential for uninterrupted listening sessions. Follow these simple steps to charge your earbuds and keep them ready for use:
- Locate the Charging Case: The Brookstone earbuds are typically accompanied by a charging case, which serves as a convenient storage solution and a charging station for your earbuds. Ensure that the charging case has sufficient battery power for charging the earbuds.
- Place the Earbuds in the Case: Open the charging case and carefully insert each earbud into its designated slot. The case is designed to securely hold the earbuds in place while they charge, so make sure they are properly seated to establish a connection for charging.
- Connect the Charging Cable: Using the provided charging cable, connect the USB end to a power source, such as a USB wall adapter or a computer’s USB port. Then, insert the other end of the cable into the charging case’s charging port. The LED indicator on the case should illuminate to indicate that the earbuds are charging.
- Monitor the Charging Status: While the earbuds are charging, keep an eye on the LED indicators on the charging case. These indicators often display different colors or patterns to signify the charging progress and the current battery level of the case itself.
- Ensure Full Charge: Allow the earbuds to charge until the LED indicators on the case show that the charging process is complete. This ensures that the earbuds are fully powered and ready for use when you need them.
By regularly charging your Brookstone wireless earbuds, you can enjoy extended listening sessions without the inconvenience of a low battery. Additionally, always refer to the user manual for specific charging instructions and precautions related to your earbud model.
