Maintenance

Cleaning and Care

• Regularly clean the earbuds and charging case with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth.
• Do not use abrasive cleaners, alcohol, or chemical solvents.
• Ensure the charging contacts on both the earbuds and the case are clean and free of debris to maintain proper charging.
• Remove ear tips and clean them separately with mild soap and water if necessary, ensuring they are completely dry before reattaching.

Water and Sweat Resistance (IPX4)

The earbuds are rated IPX4 for water and sweat resistance. This means they are protected against splashing water from any direction. They are suitable for workouts and light rain, but should not be submerged in water or exposed to strong jets of water.

• Do not charge the earbuds or case if they are wet.
• Wipe them dry thoroughly after exposure to sweat or water before placing them back in the charging case.

Battery Longevity

• Avoid fully discharging the battery frequently.
• Store the earbuds and case in a cool, dry place when not in use for extended periods.
• Use only the provided Type-C charging cable or a certified equivalent.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your Airdopes 141 / 148, please refer to the following common solutions:

Connectivity Issues

• Earbuds not connecting: Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your device. Place earbuds back in the case, close the lid, wait a few seconds, then open the lid again to re-initiate IWP™.
• Only one earbud working: Try resetting the earbuds. Place both earbuds in the charging case, ensure they are charging, then remove them. If the issue persists, try forgetting the device from your phone's Bluetooth settings and re-pairing.
• Frequent disconnections: Ensure the earbuds are within the effective Bluetooth range (typically 10 meters/33 feet) of your device. Avoid physical obstructions between the earbuds and the device.

Audio Quality Issues

• Low volume or muffled sound: Check the volume level on both your device and the earbuds. Ensure the ear tips are properly seated in your ears to create a good seal. Clean any earwax or debris from the earbud nozzles.
• Audio crackling at high volume: This can sometimes occur if the audio source is of low quality or if the volume is set excessively high. Try reducing the volume.
• Poor call quality (mic issues): Ensure the microphones are not obstructed. For PC use, verify microphone input settings. Some users report better mic quality on phone calls compared to PC applications like WhatsApp; this may be an application-specific issue.

Charging Issues

• Earbuds not charging in case: Ensure the charging contacts on both the earbuds and the case are clean and dry. Verify the case itself has sufficient charge.
• Case not charging: Try a different Type-C cable and power adapter. Ensure the charging port on the case is free of debris or damage. If the case is physically damaged, it may prevent charging.
