Steps
Unbox the headphones and check the contents. Charge them with the included USB cable before the first use so the battery is not empty.
Turn on Bluetooth on your phone or laptop and open the Bluetooth settings menu. Keep the device close to the headphones.
Press and hold the power button on the headphones until the light flashes and you hear the pairing tone. The headphones enter pairing mode.
Find JBL Live 780NC in the list of available devices on your phone or laptop and tap it to connect. Wait for the confirmation sound.
Use the buttons on the ear cup for playback and calls. Press once to play or pause, and use the volume buttons to change the level.
Press the noise cancelling button to switch between Adaptive Noise Cancelling, Ambient Aware and TalkThru. Pick the mode that fits your surroundings.
If the headphones act up or will not pair, do a factory reset. Hold the power and volume buttons together until the light pattern changes.
Install the JBL Headphones app and connect the headphones. Use it to change controls, adjust the EQ and set up Personi-Fi 3.0.
Charge the headphones with the USB cable when the battery is low. Check the battery level in the app or from the status light.
Tips and common mistakes
Remove the headphones from your device's Bluetooth list before pairing again if the connection keeps dropping.
Turn down the volume before you put the headphones on to protect your hearing.
Keep the app updated so the EQ and Personi-Fi settings work correctly.
A factory reset erases your saved settings, so note your app preferences first.
Questions
Why won't my laptop find the JBL Live 780NC?
Make sure the headphones are in pairing mode with the light flashing, and that Bluetooth is switched on and discoverable on the laptop. Remove old JBL entries from the device list and search again.
Do I need the JBL Headphones app?
No, the headphones work without it. The app is only needed to change button controls, adjust the EQ and create a Personi-Fi profile.
How do I switch between noise cancelling modes?
Press the noise cancelling button on the ear cup to cycle through Adaptive Noise Cancelling, Ambient Aware and TalkThru.
