- Repeat with the other earphone. Tap the button four times quickly. The light will blink blue four times, then turn solid blue.

QUICK TIPS
- The Bluetooth connection is established via the right earphone. Keep the device close to your right side or in your right pocket for the most stable connection.
- If you prefer to use only one earphone, use the right one, as it is the one connected to Bluetooth.
- The correct ear tip creates a tight seal with the speaker unit, providing a significant improvement in sound quality. All ear tips should be tried to achieve the best results.
- Only ONE Bluetooth device can be connected at a time. Turn OFF Bluetooth on unwanted devices, and turn ON Bluetooth on the desired device to connect.
WARNING
Dry the earphones completely before placing them in the charging case to avoid damage to the case.
The earphones are sweat and water-resistant, but the case is not.
WARNINGS
- Avoid extreme heat, cold, or humidity.
- Avoid dropping or crushing your earphones.
- Earwax can accumulate in the ear tips and degrade sound quality. Carefully remove wax with a cotton swab or other suitable tool to improve sound quality.
- Try lowering the volume if you experience discomfort or pain, or stop use temporarily.
- If you regularly feel discomfort when using this product, stop using it entirely and consult a doctor.
- We recommend treating your earphones the same way you would treat a pair of expensive sunglasses, storing them in a safe place when not in use.
