Product Description

Charging Case

Earbuds

NOTE: HBS-FN4 and HBS-FN5W models do not have a UV-C LED and mood light.

How to pair

Activate Bluetooth on your phone or device.
While the earbud is mounted in the charging case, open the charging case lid and press the pairing button for 3 to 5 seconds until the blue indicator light blinks.
NOTE: To connect with another device, perform the above procedure again.
When the Fast Pair connection pop-up appears on the top area of the mobile phone screen, tap it to connect. (It only supports Android™ 6.0 or higher, and requires configuring Bluetooth and location information settings of the mobile device.)
If the pop-up does not appear, select [LG HBS-FN6] from the Bluetooth menu on the mobile phone and connect it (for users of iOS or Android 5.0 or lower versions).
CAUTION: In the list of Bluetooth-connected devices, LG HBS-FN6_LE is not the correct model name for the connection. Check the model name in use and connect with the model name without “LE”

How to receive a call

To receive a phone call, touch the left or right earbud once. To end a phone call, touch the left or right earbud twice. To reject a phone call, touch and hold the left or right earbud.

How to wear earbuds

Separate the earbuds from the charging case and adjust them so that they fit comfortably in your ears. When you wear the earbuds, you will hear a wearing detection alarm.
NOTE: You can easily separate the earbuds from the charging case by turning the part with a dotted line in Image 1 to left or right and lifting the earbuds.

How to play music

Function Description
Play / Pause : Touch the left or right earbud once
Adjusting the Volume : Touch the left(Decrease volume) or  right(Increase volume) earbud twice
Play Next : Touch the left or right earbud three times

NOTE: On the LG TONE Free app, you can switch the operation mode through the touchpad settings.

Listening to the ambient sound

Touch and hold the left or right earbud to hear the ambient sound. You can adjust the intensity of the ambient sound in the LG TONE Free app. The Listen to the Ambient Sound function works only when the product is on hold or playing music.
While using the listen to the ambient sound function, the battery discharges faster than usual.
CAUTION: When the Listen to the Ambient Sound mode is enabled, you may hear the ambient sound become loud suddenly.

UVnano Description

UV-C LED process operates for ten minutes and begins when the charging case (with earbuds) is plugged in.
UV-C LED does not operate while the device is charging wirelessly such as on a pad or third-party wireless charging device (this only applies to HBS-FN6).

  • Independent testing shows the UVnano charging case kills 99.9% of bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli) on the speaker mesh of the earbuds in ten minutes while charging. The UV-C LED function works only when the charging case is connected to the power cable.
  • For the best result, it is recommended that the full 10 minutes of UV-C LED operation be performed while charging.
    NOTE: The status indicator light blinks slowly during the UV-C LED operation. The light will slowly illuminate on and off until the UV-C LED function is complete (10 minutes). Once completed, the indicator light will switch back to the always-on battery indicator, see “Battery Status”. HBS-FN4 and HBS-FN5W models do not have a UV-C LED and mood light. Performance may vary based on usage conditions. A white product may slightly differ in the color of the UV-C LED contact area, but there is no problem with the product performance. UV-C LED does not operate while charging wirelessly.
     CAUTION: Be aware that the temperature of the earbuds may rise while the UV-C LED is operating. Avoid direct eye and skin exposure to UV light. Keep out of reach of children.

The fast charging feature does not apply when the charging case is placed on a wireless charging device such as a pad. Wireless charging feature charges at a slower rate due to less power being transmitted to the charging case.

Battery Status

Wired Charging

When the charging cable is connected, the charging status is displayed in the charging case.
NOTE: The earbuds and the charging case are charged at the same time. The charging port on the charging case cannot be used to supply power to mobile phones, etc.

Wireless Charging

Align the bottom center of the charging case with the center of the wireless charger.
NOTE: The wireless charger is not provided. HBS-FN4 does not support wireless charging. The wireless charging function may not work in some wireless chargers. Wireless charging feature charges at a slower rate due to less power being transmitted to the charging case.

How to charge

If earbuds are mounted in the charging case, the earbuds’ battery status is displayed. Otherwise, the charging case’s battery status is displayed. If the earbuds are mounted in the charging case while plugged in, the UVnano process will commence for ten minutes. Once this process is complete, the charging case’s battery status will be displayed.

NOTE: When the charging case lid is closed, the charging case battery status is displayed. If the charging case has no remaining charge, there will be no display and it cannot function. We recommend you keep the charging case charged at all times as the earbuds are not able to be turned on and turned off independently.
