Just got my pair and can't wait to use them--how do I unlock them??

Press very firmly on the handles and slide the black sliding lock mechanism on the handle backward to unlock and forward (towasds the blades) to lock. It will be stiff at first, but much easier with a little use

Flat black slide on side of trimmers slides towards handle end. VERY stiff at first. Good luck!

I had the same problem. The seller was very helpful if you write to him he will give you detailed instructions. They cut very well, but are not easy to lock and unlock, at least mine are. I did not give them 5 stars because of this problem. I just don't lock mine anymore.

There's a black plastic lock release switch that you need to slide while you squeeze the handles. It's a bit difficult at first, but after you've broken them in, it locks and unlocks pretty easily.

Mine came unlocked. I suggest you contact the seller first, and make sure so you have their confirmation in writing tho.

Hi. When you turn them on press and hold the play/pause button and - volume button simultaneously for about 3 seconds until the light flashes red and blue. Search for it with your device. If your device asks for a pin it's 0000 (four zeros). Hope this helps!

I ended up sending the pink ones back..and got a black pair and they worked...you do have hold the phone button down until the blue and red led lights flash when you first turn the set on to make it discoverable.

I'm not sure, I can only tell you that they are brand new, never been opened. I bought a pair for myself and then received a pair as a gift. I'm selling the pair I bought for myself so as not to hurt feelings.

Hi! I have on 7.1 and I'm having troubles unlocking it so far. Any suggestion for me is more than welcome .

If you have the locks (purchased separately), unlock them first. Pop out the center, which includes a hex-key (Allen wrench). Keep turning the hex-key (after inserting into the hex-head screw) counter-clockwise until the securing strap is released completely from restraining pressure of the screw-device. Then pull the strap free to release the foot.

I wasn't able to find the unlock mechanism either. It was very frustrating! I sold the stupid thing at a garage sale for what I paid for it and went to Bed, Bath and Beyond where the store manager helped me find what I was looking for. So much for trying to go the cheap route. : (

I am having the same issue, did someone help you with this issue or did you just return them?

My device also came locked and password protected. I cannot find a way to contact seller except to "thank" them. I am returning the device.

Go to the Koss website and look for instructions- fairly easy to find as I recall. You'll pack up your headphones (pack them w. some bubblewrap/newspaper and use a small USPS Priority Mail box), and send them ~ $7 (check the website) for s/h (you may not even need to send that). Obviously, include a note with your return address and a description of the problem. Haven't used it on these headphones specifically, but (as a radio freelancer), many of us buy Koss exclusively because of their warranty service. I've sent several different headphones back (obviously much older styles than these) and have either received back a repaired or refurbished (usually upgraded) headphone back. I think I had to include $7 or so for s/h- but it was MUCH less ($ and hassle) than getting new ones. They've even replaced/repaired ones that were really beat up (a colleague STEPPED on my headphones (dork!) and Koss replaced them without incident. I recently resurrected a pair of older Koss headphones that had (large) flaking earpads- was able to get a new pair for $5 from their website, thereby rejuvenating them and effectively making them 'good as new'. Still an America based company, too. Nothing against the other companies/brands, but Koss has always stood by their products whenever I asked them to do so, so I'll support them with my business!
