SAFETY AND MAINTENANCE

SAFETY GUIDELINES
In order to achieve maximum safety while using your Razer Kraken, we suggest that you adopt the following guidelines:

Should you have trouble operating the device properly and troubleshooting does not work, unplug the device and contact the Razer hotline or go to Support.razer.comfort assistance.

Do not take apart the device (doing so will void your warranty) and do not attempt to operate it under abnormal current loads.

Keep the device away from liquid, humidity or moisture. Operate the device only within the specific temperature range of 0°C (32°F} to 40°C (104°F). Should the temperature exceed this range, unplug and/or switch off the device in order to let the temperature stabilize to an optimal level.

The device isolates external ambient sounds even at low volumes, resulting in lowered awareness of your external surroundings. Please remove the device when engaging in any activities that require active awareness of your surroundings.

Listening to excessively loud volumes over extended periods of time can damage your hearing. Furthermore, legislation of certain countries permits a maximum sound level of 86db to affect your hearing for 8 hours a day. We, therefore, recommend that you reduce the volume toa comfortable level when listening for prolonged periods of time. Please, take good care of your hearing.

MAINTENANCE AND USE

The Razer Kraken requires minimum maintenance to keep it in optimum condition. Once a month we recommend you unplug the device from the computer and clean it using a soft cloth or cotton Swab with a bit of warm water to prevent dirt buildup. Do not use soap or harsh cleaning agents.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these fit Mega mind head?

Yes the headband expands.

Is the headset cable a combo jack or two separate headphones and microphone jacks?

Both. A combo 3.5 mm jack is attached to the Razer Kraken. An extension splitter cable is also included, which provides full audio and mic access for platforms requiring separate audio input and mic input ports.

Can I use these for ps4 and Xbox one s?

Can I switchout the 3.5mm cable for a shorter one or no?

No the cable is secured to the headset internally.

My computer can not find my headset.

You should have received an email when purchased or registered your product on the razer website. It will have an activation code. And a download link. If you do not have that code or link, just contact customer support with ur S/N and Product # and they will email it to you

Is the cord an aux jack, or a usb?

It’s an aux jack.

Does it light up?

Yes, it lights up! When you plug it in, you will need to download software for it in order for the headphones to light up

Is this headset good for Skype/zoom meetings?

Yes, it works pretty well. Although the headset has a single aux output it works for both audio and mic.

Which cable goes to which, I see 2 cables with no label to put.

so look at the back of your pc one is pink one should be green. between the gold color on the plugs is the corresponding color. pink goes to pink green to green. That’s if you are using it for pc.

Is there a way to replace the head padding?

Yes

How do you change the colors on the headset?

The colors aren’t interchangeable you have to select the color you want in one of the drop-down menus.

What size is the headband? Will it fit a small head?

It works great on my 5-year-old and on this old man’s head.

Would this work for Xbox Series S?

Yes

Do these come with ears or are the cat ears separate?

They do not have cat ears.

Can they plug into a console controller?

No it’s USB, would plug into your PC.

Are these loud for the ps4 I’ve been struggling to find a good loud headset for the ps4?, should I get this ,the tournament edition or the hyper X?

I would probably prefer the Hyper X to be honest. I bought these for my ps4 thinking they were 7.1 surround but I guess the adapter doesn’t work. I’m going to return.

Can you hear audio and use the mic at the same time using a laptop?

Yes, so long as you have adequate drivers and software to support it.

Will these work with the Nuance Dragon software (turns speech to text) or anything related to that?

They sure will! That’s what I’m using with my dragon software currently.
