How to turn on and wear

The device is automatically activated when you disconnect the body of the right earpiece from the bow, and off when he returns to the scene. In this case, the left you can tear off as much as necessary - Sensor Powerhook^TM on it there.

Before you measure the headphones, you need to put on the body of silicone ear pads with special grooves. Do not mistake the right and the left - this will help you letters R and L in ear cushions.

Now you need to choose the appropriate inserts. Try a couple of very small diameter and gradually increase until you find the ideal. I tried all three sets, and stopped in the middle size.

When you put on the headphones, first insert them horizontally to embouchure nestled inside, and the vacuum liner completely covers the ear canal. Then turn the shackle counterclockwise and slide the ear.

This technology TwistLock^TMThrough which will not have to constantly correct the headphones during use.

How to switch modes

They have only two headphones.

Conjugation of a Bluetooth device

After turning on the Bluetooth device icon will turn red. Touch panel once, then - the second and hold for five seconds. After that, the icon will flash blue - headphones went into pairing mode.

Find the list of devices JBL Endurance DIVE, connect and enable access to audio, multimedia and management contacts.

When the headphones connect, Bluetooth icon stops flashing and just light blue. Now they are each time automatically interfaced with the device when turned on.

MP3-player

This feature will surely enjoy runners. No longer do you have to take with your phone and transfer it from one sweaty palm to the other. The headphones can upload 1 GB files in MP3 format and run under music hands-free.

Of course, the headphones do not fit your huge music library - only about 200 tracks. But I believe that this is more than enough.

To download music, connect the headphones to your computer using the charging cable, and copy their tracks.

To switch to headphones in MP3 mode, press the control panel and hold for three seconds. After that, the Bluetooth indicator will light up and turn off MP3 icon - three horizontal strips.

If you've never parted with your phone, MP3 mode is useful to you for at least navigation. Exercise in water can only be with him previously blocked sensory control.

How to control your music

To play music, or put it on pause, click once on the control panel. Do not push hard: a slight depression, and the sensor will work.

Turn on the next song, you can double click, and the previous - triple.

To turn up the volume, swipe up from the bottom panel, and to decrease the volume - from top to bottom.

You can also lock the sensors. This must be done before swimming in the MP3 mode. A brief press and a long one - for five seconds.

I had to get used to the touch. Do you want to lock your device, and instead turn on Bluetooth. Trying to turn up the volume or switch to another songAnd you put music on pause.

Weeds management disappeared somewhere on the second day of use, I'm used instead of clicks to make quick tapas, and to lock to keep your finger on the panel to victory.

How to manage calls

Talk on the phone, you can in the Bluetooth mode. When you receive an incoming call, the headphones to utter a word, notifying you of the call. To take it one time, touch panel, and to reject, make two tapas. Voice is heard well, without the noise and echo.

How to charge

When headphones are discharged, the LED will blink red, and you will hear a short tone while listening to music.

I liked that the headphones are warning about running out in advance: after I listened to the music yet an hour of the first signal. After each new peak I thought that the headphones are turned off, but they continued to play. As a result, I lost count, counting signals, drove to the house and put the headphones on the charging.

To charge the headphones, connect them to the computer network charger or a portable battery.

Endurance Dive fully recharged within a few hours: at this time the indicator is red, and at the end - goes out.

If you forget to charge the headphones, you can do it at the last moment: just 10 minutes of charging will provide an hour of work.

Advantages and disadvantages

I tested the headphones on all their training: running around in them, swim, CrossFit. And I can say that Endurance Dive are great for sports.

I would not call it perfect: the model has its drawbacks. But the advantages still more, at least for me. Listed in order of importance:

pros

1. Hold on to your ears. An hour of running on rough terrain and runtime systems with walking on their hands and jumping through rope even once the headphones are not corrected. They fit like a glove.

2. Quickly charged and long run. My old wireless headphones with AliExpress kept charging for two hours and often betrayed me at half run, if I forgot to put them on this charge. Endurance Dive can not be charged every time you come to the training.

3. Do not waste time. Included immediately, two seconds already sounds in your music.

4. Placed in a small pocket. They are very compact and lightweight, can fit into a miniature silicone case and take up almost no space.

They can be worn without cover: hook for a bag, cross over each other.

Minuses

1. Not so easy to deal with management. It took me two days to adapt to it. When headphones are falling a little hair strand, sensors may not work. It's annoying.

2. Ribbed liner ear rubs. An hour passed in the headphones without any discomfort, but when I took them off, I realized that the inner part of the ear a little bit sore. Although I admit that it will not rub all: it all depends on the individual characteristics.

3. In the swimming pool it is necessary to get used to them. The first time to use them basin - the whole story. First, you need to wear a hat, because it take a shower before exercise. Then we need to raise it in order to put on the headphones. And then again lowered so that they are not moved by the pressure.

I forgot to lock the sensors - take off again to see flashes of the player icon or not. Again you put on the headphones, you lower edge caps, then pulls goggles... and realize that I forgot to include the music before you put the lock! All over again. In general, I am a long time to dig, before we begin, finally, to swim.

But despite all the difficulties, swimming headphones - is a different matter. With music everything is faster, more energetic and more interesting. And the water is not poured into the ears, which is a big plus.
