Safety
Volume Levels:
- Avoid listening to audio at excessively high volumes for extended periods, as this can lead to hearing damage. Use a comfortable and safe listening volume. If you’re unsure about safe listening levels, follow the “60/60 rule” – listen at 60% of the maximum volume for no more than 60 minutes at a time.
Environmental Awareness:
- When wearing the earbuds, remain aware of your surroundings, especially when in public areas, near traffic, or engaging in activities where situational awareness is crucial for safety.
Do Not Use While Driving or Biking:
- It is dangerous and often illegal to use earbuds while driving a vehicle or riding a bicycle, as it can impair your ability to hear important auditory cues like horns or sirens. Always prioritize road safety.
Secure Fit:
- Ensure that the earbuds and earhooks fit securely in your ears to prevent them from falling out during physical activities or while moving around. This can also help improve sound quality and noise isolation.
Ear Health:
- If you experience discomfort, pain, or irritation while using the earbuds, discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional or audiologist if necessary. Proper ear hygiene is essential to prevent ear infections.
Noise Isolation:
- Be cautious when using the earbuds in environments where noise isolation can be a safety concern, such as while walking or jogging near traffic. Consider using only one earbud or using a transparency mode, if available, to remain aware of your surroundings.
Child Safety:
- Keep the earbuds out of the reach of small children to prevent accidental ingestion or choking hazards.
Awareness of Battery Levels:
- Be aware of the battery levels of the earbuds, especially if you plan to use them for an extended period. Low battery levels may lead to interruptions in your audio experience.
Storage:
- Store the earbuds and earhooks properly in their provided case when not in use to protect them from damage and keep them charged for your next use.
Proper Charging: – Use only the provided charging cable and ensure that the earbuds are properly seated in the charging case to avoid overheating or damage.
Consultation: – If you have any concerns about the safety of using the earbuds, hearing loss, or discomfort, consider consulting with an audiologist or healthcare professional for advice and guidance.
Maintenance
-
Clean the Ear Tips and Earbuds:
- Regularly clean the ear tips and the surfaces of the earbuds to remove dirt, sweat, earwax, or any other debris that may accumulate over time. Use a soft, lint-free cloth or a cotton swab moistened with a small amount of isopropyl alcohol to gently clean them. Ensure they are completely dry before use.
-
Store Properly:
- When not in use, store the earbuds in their charging case. This not only protects them from physical damage but also ensures they are charged and ready for use when you need them.

Troubleshooting
Connectivity Issues:
- Earbuds Won’t Pair: Ensure that the earbuds are in pairing mode (usually indicated by LED lights blinking). Refer to the user manual for specific instructions on how to initiate pairing mode.
- Bluetooth Connection Drops: Check if the earbuds are within the Bluetooth range (typically around 30 feet or 10 meters) of your paired device. Move closer to the device to improve the connection.
