Maintenance
1. Cleaning
To maintain optimal sound quality and hygiene, regularly clean your earbuds:
- Gently wipe the earbuds and charging case with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth.
- For in-ear earbuds, remove any earwax buildup from the ear tips using a small brush or cotton swab.
- Avoid using abrasive materials, solvents, or harsh chemicals.
2. Storage
When not in use, always store the earbuds in their charging case to protect them from dust, damage, and to keep them charged.

The PAXA Ctbuds are IPX5 water resistant, meaning they are protected against low-pressure water jets from any direction. This makes them suitable for workouts and light rain. However, they are not designed for submersion in water or exposure to high-pressure water jets.
