Water Usage Guidelines (IPX8 Waterproof)

These headphones are rated IPX8, meaning they can be submerged in water up to two meters deep for one hour. To ensure optimal performance and prevent signal loss:
- Always switch to MP3 mode when swimming or engaging in any underwater activity. Bluetooth signals cannot reliably transmit through water.
- Ensure the charging port is clean and dry before and after water exposure.
- Rinse the headphones with fresh water after use in chlorinated or saltwater, then dry thoroughly.
Maintenance
- Cleaning: Wipe the headphones with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
- Drying: After water exposure, gently shake off excess water and allow the headphones to air dry completely before charging or storing.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
- Battery Care: To prolong battery life, avoid fully discharging the headphones frequently. Charge regularly, even if not in use for extended periods.
