Maintenance

- Do not use harsh chemicals, solvents, or abrasive cleaners.

3. Cable Care
The included audio cables are designed to be tangle-free. Avoid excessive bending, twisting, or pulling on the cables, especially near the connectors, to prolong their lifespan.
Troubleshooting
- No Sound:
- Ensure the audio cable is securely plugged into both the headphones and your audio source.
- Check the volume level on your audio source and the in-line remote.
- Test with a different audio source or cable to rule out device or cable issues.
- Poor Sound Quality (Distortion, Low Volume):
- Verify the audio cable connections are firm.
- Ensure the audio source's volume is not set too high, causing distortion.
- Check if the ear cups are properly seated over your ears to ensure optimal sound isolation and bass response.
