Safety and handling

Important safety information
Handle AirPods and case with care. They contain sensitive electronic components, including batteries, and can be damaged, impair functionality, or cause injury if dropped, burned, punctured, crushed, disassembled, or if exposed to excessive heat or liquid or to environments having high concentrations of industrial chemicals, including near evaporating liquified gasses such as helium. Don’t use damaged AirPods or case.
Batteries
Don’t attempt to replace AirPods or case batteries yourself—you may damage the batteries, which could cause overheating and injury.
Charging
Charge the case with the charging cable and a power adapter or computer. Only charge with an adapter that is compliant with applicable country regulations and international and regional safety standards. Other adapters may not meet applicable safety standards, and charging with such adapters could pose a risk of death or injury. Using damaged cables or chargers, or charging when moisture is present, can cause fire, electric shock, injury, or damage to the case or other property.
Prolonged heat exposure
Avoid prolonged skin contact with a device, its power adapter, or the charging cable and connector when plugged into a power source, because it may cause discomfort or injury. For example, while the case is charging using the charging cable and a power adapter plugged into a power source, don’t sit or sleep on the case, charging cable, connector, or power adapter, or place them under a blanket, pillow, or your body. Take special care if you have a physical condition that affects your ability to detect heat against your body.
Hearing loss
Listening to sound at high volumes may permanently damage your hearing. Background noise, as well as continued exposure to high volume levels, can make sounds seem quieter than they actually are. Check the volume after inserting AirPods in your ears and before playing audio. For more information about hearing loss and how to set a maximum volume limit, go to apple.com/sound.
WARNING: To prevent possible hearing damage, do not listen at high volume levels for long periods.
Driving hazard
Use of AirPods while operating a vehicle is not recommended and is illegal in some areas. Check and obey the applicable laws and regulations on the use of earphones while operating a vehicle. Be careful and attentive while driving. Stop listening to your audio device if you find it disruptive or distracting while operating any type of vehicle or performing any activity that requires your full attention.
Choking hazard
AirPods and case may present a choking hazard or cause other injury to small children. Keep them away from small children.
Medical device interference
AirPods and case contain components and radios that emit electromagnetic fields.
AirPods and case also contain magnets. These electromagnetic fields and magnets may interfere with pacemakers, defibrillators, or other medical devices. Maintain a safe distance of separation between your medical device and AirPods and case. Consult your physician and medical device manufacturer for information specific to your medical device. Stop using AirPods and case if you suspect they are interfering with your pacemaker, defibrillator, or any other medical device.
Skin irritation
AirPods can lead to skin irritation if not properly cleaned. Clean AirPods regularly with a soft lint-free cloth. For additional information on how to clean your device and other tips to avoid skin irritation, go to apple.com/support. If a skin problem develops, discontinue use. If the problem persists, consult a physician.
Electrostatic shock
When using AirPods in areas where the air is very dry, it is easy to build up static electricity and possible for your ears to receive a small electrostatic discharge from AirPods. To minimize the risk of electrostatic discharge, avoid using AirPods in extremely dry environments, or touch a grounded unpainted metal object before inserting AirPods.
Important handling information Discoloration of the Lightning connector and/or of the bottom of the stem of your AirPods after regular use is normal. Dirt, debris, and exposure to moisture may cause discoloration.
