Quick Tips & Warnings
Quick Tips
- Either earbud can be used independently to connect to your device. Simply take one earbud out of the charging case, and it will automatically connect.
- Choosing the right ear tip size can provide a better seal for improved audio quality. Try all ear tips for the best fit.
Warnings & Precautions
- Environment: Avoid extreme heat, cold, and humidity.
- Care: Avoid dropping or crushing the earbuds. Earwax may build up in the ear tip and affect sound quality. Gently clean with a cotton swab or other small tool to improve sound quality.
- Usage: If you experience discomfort or pain, try lowering the volume or temporarily stopping use. If you consistently experience discomfort while using this product, discontinue use and consult your doctor.
- Storage: We recommend treating your earbuds like a pair of sunglasses and storing them in a safe place when not in use.
- Charging Case Care: Wipe the earbuds dry before placing them in the charging case to prevent damage to the charging case. The earbuds are sweat/water resistant, but the charging case is not. ⚠️
