Maintenance

Cleaning

Regular cleaning helps maintain optimal performance and hygiene. Use a soft, dry, lint-free cloth to wipe down the earbuds and charging case. Do not use abrasive materials or submerge the devices in liquid. Remove ear tips and clean them with water and mild soap, then dry thoroughly before reattaching.

Water and Sweat Resistance

Both Powerbeats Fit earbuds and the charging case are IPX4 rated, meaning they are resistant to sweat and splashes of water. This makes them suitable for intense workouts and use in light rain. However, they are not waterproof and should not be submerged in water. Always ensure the earbuds and case are dry before charging to prevent damage.
