Regular cleaning helps maintain sound quality and hygiene.
- Gently wipe the earpieces with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth.

6.2 Cable Care
The detachable OFC cable is designed for durability, but proper care extends its lifespan.
- Avoid sharp bends or kinks in the cable.
- When disconnecting, always pull from the connector housing, not the cable itself.
