Wireless headphones Bluetooth reset procedures

As we know Bluetooth headphones provide a convenient wireless connection to your Bluetooth enabled devices. However, it is not uncommon for Bluetooth devices across the market to experience minor hiccups in their processing and connectivity. If an issue occurs where you’re having trouble pairing your headphones to any devices you can perform a reset procedure to help the Bluetooth technology function correctly.

Identify your model of Audio-Technica headphones below and follow the steps to get yourself back on track.
