Troubleshooting Tips

1. No sound or poor sound quality: Ensure the connection cable is securely plugged into both the headphone and the audio device. Check the audio device's volume level and settings. Try using a different audio source to rule out issues with your device.
2. Microphone not working: Make sure you are using the cable with the in-line controls and microphone. Check if the microphone is muted or disabled on your device. Test the microphone on another device to rule out compatibility issues.
3. Uncomfortable fit: Adjust the headband to find a comfortable fit. The Alcantara material on the ear pads and headband will become softer over time, increasing comfort during use.
4. Sound leakage: The Sennheiser Momentum On-Ear Headphone is designed to isolate ambient noise but may leak sound at higher volumes. Consider lowering the volume or using in-ear headphones for situations where sound leakage is a concern.
