7. Maintenance
7.1. Cleaning
Regularly clean your earphones and charging case with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials. For the eartips, you may gently wipe them with a slightly damp cloth and allow them to dry completely before reattaching.

When not in use, store the earphones in their charging case to protect them and ensure they are always ready for use. Store in a cool, dry place away from extreme temperatures and direct sunlight.
8. Troubleshooting
- Earphones not pairing: Ensure both earphones are in the charging case, then open the lid to activate pairing mode. Check your device's Bluetooth settings and try reconnecting.
- Only one earbud working: Place both earbuds back into the charging case, close the lid, wait a few seconds, then open it again. This often re-syncs them.
- No sound: Check the volume level on both your device and the earphones. Ensure the earphones are properly connected to your device.
- Charging issues: Verify the charging cable is securely connected to both the case and the power source. Clean the charging contacts on the earphones and inside the case.
- Poor call quality: Ensure the microphone is not obstructed. Check for strong Bluetooth signal and minimize environmental noise.
9. User Tips
- For optimal sound quality and noise reduction, ensure the eartips fit snugly in your ear canal.
- When switching between two paired devices, ensure Bluetooth is disabled on the device you are disconnecting from to facilitate a smoother transition to the other device.
- Regularly check for firmware updates (if available) through the official HTC app or website to ensure the best performance and latest features.
- To maximize battery life, always place the earphones back into the charging case when not in use.
