Charge your Solo Pro headphones

Plug your headphones in to a power source using the included Lightning Cable. As the headphones charge, the LED pulses. When charging is complete, the light will turn white and remain lit.

With Active Noise Cancelling or Transparency mode turned on, your headphones provide up to 22 hours of playback from 2 hours of charging, and up to 3 hours of playback from a 10-minute charge. With Active Noise Cancelling or Transparency mode turned off, you can enjoy up to 40 hours of playback from 2 hours of charging, or up to 6 hours of playback from a 10-minute charge.*

To check your battery level, press and release the mode button and check the status of the LED. The LED will pulse red if your battery is 0%-80% charged, pulse white if it's 80%-99% charged, and remain lit white when it's fully charged.
