I hear constant beeps and tones in the headset.

This is a known issue. Until the next software release, we recommend performing the following reset, which will remove the Bluetooth connection and restart the headset.

  1. Power ON the BeHear headset.
  2. Press and hold the following 3 buttons simultaneously, for approximately 8 seconds, until the headset’s LED blinks twice in purple.

How can I stop the strange sounds that are sometimes emitted from the headset when streaming audio (TV, music player, computer)?

ListenThrough Slider Adjustment

This sometimes happens when ListenThrough is activated on a high transparency setting (the dot on the scale is set far on the right). In this instance, slide the dot to the left until the strange sound disappears.

Alternatively, turn off ListenThrough completely by sliding the dot all the way to the left (or tapping the mute button to the left of the scale), or by pressing the middle button on the headset’s right-hand control box.

You can also change the default settings for ListenThrough so that it will not be activated until you choose to do so. To change the default settings:

  1. Tap the “Settings” icon at the bottom of the W&H BeHear app screen.
  2. Tap the “Device” icon.
  3. Scroll down to the “ListenThrough Music” section, and tap the ▼ symbol below the descriptive text to reveal the drop-down list of options.
  4. Choose “OFF”.
