If you are using FreeLace Pro 2/FreeLace Pro noise cancellation earphones, press and hold the button on the left earphone (as shown in the blue area in the following figure) to switch between noise cancellation, Awareness, and Off modes. You can also open the AI Life app, touch the earphone card, go to Noise cancellation > Noise cancellation modes, and select Cozy, General, or Ultra.

 
  • When switching between noise cancellation modes, avoid pressing on the left earphone with great force, which may hurt your ear.
