Maintenance
Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your earbuds.

- Water Resistance (IPX4): The earbuds are IPX4 waterproof, meaning they are resistant to splashing water from any direction. This makes them suitable for workouts and light rain. However, they are not designed for submersion in water, swimming, or showering. Do not expose them to pressurized water or high-velocity water.
- Storage: When not in use, store the earbuds in their charging case to protect them and keep them charged. Store in a cool, dry place away from extreme temperatures and direct sunlight.
- Battery Care: To preserve battery life, avoid fully discharging the earbuds and charging case frequently. Charge them regularly, even if not used for extended periods.

Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your LTC SS-503 earbuds, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
Issue 1: Only one earbud has sound.
This product supports a dual-host function, allowing use of a single earbud. If only one earbud has sound when both are in use, it may require a reset.
- Solution: Place both earbuds back into the charging case. Close the lid, then open it again. This will reset and re-pair the earbuds. If the issue persists, perform a full reset as described in the "Connecting to Other Devices" section under Setup.
Issue 2: Occasional disconnection or unstable connection.
Bluetooth 5.1 technology provides a stable connection, but environmental factors can affect performance.
- Solution:
- Ensure the effective connection distance (less than 10 meters) is maintained between the earbuds and your device.
- Avoid signal-blocking objects such as thick walls or large metal structures between your device and the earbuds.
- Ensure there is no significant electromagnetic interference from other electronic devices nearby.
- Try resetting the earbuds and re-pairing them with your device.
Issue 3: Earbuds or charging case not charging.
If your device is not charging as expected, check the following:
- Solution:
- Verify that the USB-C cable is securely connected to both the charging case and the power adapter.
- Ensure the power adapter is functioning correctly and plugged into a live outlet.
- If using wireless charging, ensure the charging case is correctly positioned on the wireless charging pad and the pad is powered.
- Try using a different USB-C cable or power adapter to rule out faulty accessories.
- Clean the charging contacts on both the earbuds and inside the charging case with a dry cotton swab to ensure good connection.
