Maintenance

Cleaning

Wipe the headset and ear cups with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn dirt, a slightly damp cloth can be used, but ensure no moisture enters the electronic components. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.

Storage

Store the headset in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. When not in use, it is recommended to store it in a protective case to prevent dust accumulation and physical damage.

Battery Care

To maximize battery life, avoid fully discharging the headset frequently. Charge the headset regularly, even if not in constant use. If storing for an extended period, charge the battery to approximately 50% before storage.
