Key controls FAQs
How do I turn on active noise cancelling (ANC)?
By default, the ANC on your Dyson Zone™ headphones is set at maximum noise reduction, known as Isolation mode. You can switch to Transparency mode by double tapping either ear cup. In Transparency mode, surrounding sounds are amplified so you can hear and stay alert. You can also initiate Conversation mode by flipping the visor down to talk. This pauses airflow and noise cancelling, and amplifies voices so you can hear and talk with your headphones on.
Can I control audio via Bluetooth®?
Yes, you can control both airflow and audio from your mobile device with the MyDyson™ app. You can also connect to platforms such as Spotify and Apple Music through Bluetooth-enabled products and play music through your device from there.
Can I make and answer telephone calls?
Once you’ve connected your headphones to your mobile device via Bluetooth®, you can control audio and telephone calls using the Audio joystick on the back of your right ear cup. When your smartphone rings, press the joystick to accept the call, or hold to decline. While a call is in progress, press the joystick again to end the call.
What does activity rate mean?
Activity rate refers to your level of physical activity while wearing the Dyson Zone™ headphones. The more active you are, the faster your breathing rate, and the higher your airflow. In Auto-activity mode, your headphones detect your level of activity and adjust airflow automatically. You can also adjust airflow manually using the Airflow button on the back of your left ear cup. Switch between rest, light activity such as walking, and moderate activity.
