SAFETYINSTRUCTIONS
Please read these instructions carefully and completely before using the product.
Please observe all instructions given, especially those concerning the safe use of the product.
The company beyerdynamic GmbH & Co. KG accepts no liability for damage to the product or injury to persons caused by careless, improper or incorrect use of the product, or by use for purposes not specified by the manufacturer.
Do not use the product if it is defective.
Intended use
Only use the product as described in this product manual. beyerdynamic accepts no liability for damage to the product or injury to persons caused by careless, improper or incorrect use of the product, or by use for purposes not specified by the manufacturer.
beyerdynamic is not liable for damage to USB devices that do not comply with the USB specifications.
beyerdynamic is not liable for damage resulting from connection interruptions due to batteries being empty or too old, or due to exceeding the Bluetooth® transmission range.
Please also observe the relevant country-specific regulations before using the product.
Adjusting the volume

High volume levels and long listening times can permanently damage your hearing. Because in-ear headphones are placed directly in the ear canal, they can become
6-9 dB louder than conventional headphones, and this increases the risk of hearing damage.
Before inserting the earphones, set the volume to minimum. Only increase the volume after inserting the earphones.
Do not use the in-ear headphones at high volume for a long time. When listening and speaking normally with in-ear headphones, your own voice should still be perceptible.
In case of tinnitus, reduce the volume. If necessary, consult a doctor.
You can personalise your Bluetooth® headphones with the beyerdynamic MIY app. The app's "Statistics" function records the sound pressure your ears are exposed to over time. However, it only refers to the sound pressure generated through the headphones' speakers and not to that from external sources of noise.
Reducing perception of ambient noise
In-ear headphones drastically reduce perception of ambient noise. Using in-ear headphones in road traffic can be potentially dangerous. The user's hearing must not be impaired to the extent that it causes road safety risks.
Do not use the in-ear headphones within the action area of potentially dangerous machines and tools.
- Avoid using in-ear headphones in situations where hearing must not be impaired - particularly in road traffic, when crossing a level crossing or on a construction site.
ANC function
Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) suppresses outside noise.
Never use the headphones with ANC in situations where hearing must not be impaired and where doing so would pose a danger to yourself or others, such as driving a car, riding a bicycle, crossing a railway crossing or walking near traffic.
- Remove the headphones, or use them without noise cancellation and adjust the volume to ensure that you can hear outside sounds such as alarms and warning signals.
- Please note that sounds such as alarms or warning signals may sound different when you are wearing headphones.
Changed acoustic perception
For many people, wearing in-ear headphones takes some getting used to because the acoustic perception of their own voice and body as well as the inner ear sounds that occur while walking is different from the "normal" situation without in-ear headphones. However, this initially strange sensation usually diminishes after wearing them for a while.
Cleaning
Dirt on the eartips and the formation of a warm and humid climate in the ear canal can cause an increased level of germs, which can increase the risk of an ear canal infection.
Regularly clean the eartips.
Risk of swallowing
- Keep small parts, such as product, packaging and accessories, away from children and pets. They constitute a choking hazard if swallowed!
Using the batteries
Danger from heat, water and mechanical stress
Excessive heat, water and mechanical stress may cause explosion, heat, fire, smoke or fumes. Injuries and irreversible damage to the battery may result.
Do not expose the battery (battery pack or integrated battery) to excessive heat, direct sunlight or fire.
Do not open the housing or disassemble the battery.
Do not use the battery if there is a risk it has come into contact with water.
Only use a USB 2.0/3.0-standard-compliant 5 V power supply unit to charge the battery via the integrated USB socket type C (current consumption is max. 0.5 A).
Storing the battery
If the battery is not going to be used for an extended period, set the charge level to approximately 50% of the maximum capacity and store it at temperatures up to max. 30^
Environmental conditions
Do not expose the product to rain, snow, liquids or moisture.

Remarks on the life of Li-ion batteries
- When fully charged, disconnect the USB cable from the charger and in-ear headphones.
- CAUTION! High temperatures, especially with a high charge level, can cause irreversible damage.
- If the battery is not used or is stored for extended periods of time, it is recommended to charge it to approx. 50% and store it at no more than 20^ .
- Switch off the battery-powered product after use.
Selecting/changing eartips
The in-ear headphones come with five different sizes of eartips. It is important to choose the right eartips for your ears to achieve a comfortable and secure fit, good ambient noise attenuation and the best possible sound.
If you are using them regularly, we recommend changing the eartips every three months. Replacement eartips made of silicone and other materials can be ordered from the beyerdynamic spare parts shop: www.beyerdynamic.com/service/spare-parts
- If an eartip is already fitted, carefully remove it from the earphones.
- Attach the new eartip to the earphone.

Inserting and wearing the earphones
Place the neckband around the neck and insert the earphones into the left and right ear according to their markings.
The earphones should fit comfortably and securely.

BEYERDYNAMIC MIY APP
The beyerdynamic MIY app is constantly evolving to customise your Blue BYRD ANC to your own needs with useful functions such as MOSAYC sound personalisation, tracking statistics of your daily listening habits and other settings. If you use MOSAYC sound personalisation, your Blue BYRD ANC will sound even better.

Settings for best sound
To achieve the best possible Bluetooth® sound with your in-ear headphones, please observe the following practical tips:
- Set the volume to minimum on the in-ear headphones and to maximum on the playback device.
- Then adjust the volume only on the in-ear headphones, not on the playback device.
This applies only to playback devices that do not automatically synchronise the volume. On playback devices that automatically synchronise the volume (e.g. iPhone, iPad and various Android smartphones), the headphone volume is always identical to the volume of the playback device.
- Deactivate any audio effects that may be present in the software of the playback device.
