Water Resistance (IPX4)

The Dime 2 earbuds are rated IPX4 for sweat and water resistance. This means they are protected against splashing water from any direction. They are suitable for workouts and light rain exposure but should not be submerged in water.

  • Do not submerge the earbuds in water.
  • Do not expose the charging case to water, as it is not water-resistant.
  • Ensure earbuds are dry before placing them back into the charging case.

Maintenance

  • Cleaning: Regularly clean the earbuds and charging contacts with a dry, soft cloth. Remove ear gels and clean them with mild soap and water, then dry thoroughly before reattaching.
  • Storage: When not in use, store the earbuds in their charging case to protect them and keep them charged.
  • Battery Care: To prolong battery life, avoid fully discharging the earbuds and case frequently. Charge them regularly, even if not in constant use.
  • Avoid Extreme Temperatures: Do not expose the earbuds or case to extreme heat or cold, as this can damage the battery and internal components.

Troubleshooting

IssuePossible Solution
Earbuds not pairingEnsure earbuds are charged. Place them back in the case, close the lid, wait 5 seconds, then remove them to re-enter pairing mode. Check your device's Bluetooth settings and forget/remove "Dime 2" if previously paired, then try pairing again.
Only one earbud playing audioEnsure both earbuds are charged. Place both earbuds back in the case, close the lid, and then remove them simultaneously. This often re-syncs them. If the issue persists, try resetting the earbuds (refer to Skullcandy support for specific reset instructions).
No sound or low volumeCheck the volume level on both your device and the earbuds. Ensure the earbuds are properly seated in your ears. Clean any debris from the earbud speakers.
Charging issuesEnsure the charging cable is securely connected to both the case and the power source. Try a different Micro-USB cable and power adapter. Clean the charging contacts on both the earbuds and the case.
