- Repeat with the other earbud: Quickly tap the [touch sensor] 4 times. The light will blink blue 4 times, then turn solid blue.

Quick Tips
- The Bluetooth connection is established from the right earbud. For the most stable connection, keep the device near your right hand side or in your right pocket.
- If you prefer to wear only one earbud, you must wear the right earbud, as this is the main earbud connected to Bluetooth.
- Choosing the correct ear tip makes a significant improvement in audio quality due to the proper seal for the driver. Test all ear tips for best results.
- Only ONE Bluetooth device can be connected at a time. Turn off Bluetooth on unwanted devices and turn on Bluetooth on the chosen device to connect.
Warnings
[Diagram: Earbud with water droplets on it, next to a charging case with a warning symbol.] Fully dry off the earbuds before placing in the charging case. If the earbuds are damp or wet, this will cause damage to the charging case. The warranty will be voided if the charging case shows damage by water/sweat.
[Diagram: Earbud ear hook being pulled or bent, with a warning symbol indicating potential damage.] Do not deform the ear hooks. The ear hooks are a flexible silicone but also have an internal hard structure for the antenna. Prying on the ear hook may break or damage the antenna.
Cautions
- Avoid getting moisture or liquids into the tip of the earbuds or charging port.
- Avoid extreme heat, cold, and humidity.
- Avoid dropping or crushing the earbuds, stressing the cable by rapid pulling or extreme force, or bending the cable at a sharp angle.
- Wax may build up in the earbud tips, lowering the sound quality. Carefully remove the wax with a cotton swab or other small tool to improve the sound quality.
- If you experience discomfort or pain, try lowering the volume or discontinuing use temporarily.
- If you experience regular discomfort while using this product, discontinue use and consult your physician.
- We recommend you treat your earbuds as you would a nice pair of sunglasses and keep them in a safe location when not in use.
