FITTING YOUR EARBUDS
Try all Cush Fins and eartip options for optimal fit and seal. The Cush Fin element should align by positioning the contour around the microphone port.

ECHOES DURING PHONE CALLS
If you experience microphone echoes/call quality issues with the JBuds Air, ensure the Cush Fin element is not blocking the microphone port.

QUICK TIPS
- Either earbud can connect to your device and be used independently. Simply remove the respective earbud from the charging case, and it will connect automatically.
- Choosing the correct eartip will significantly improve audio quality due to a proper seal. For best results, try all eartips.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION & CARE
Completely dry the earbuds before placing them in the charging case to avoid any damage to the case.
Earbuds are sweat/water resistant, but the case is not.
[Image showing water droplets on an earbud with a checkmark, and a charging case with a cross mark.]
- Avoid exposing the product to extreme temperatures and humidity.
- Avoid dropping or crushing the earbuds.
- Earwax can accumulate on the eartips, reducing sound quality. Carefully remove earwax using a cotton swab or other small instrument to improve sound quality.
- If you experience discomfort or pain, try reducing the volume or temporarily stop using the product.
- If you typically experience discomfort while using this product, discontinue use and consult a doctor.
- We recommend treating your earbuds like a pair of sunglasses and keeping them in a safe place when not in use.
