Your Powerbeats Pro earbuds are sweat and water-resistant, but not sweatproof
or waterproof. The charging case is not waterproof, sweatproof, sweat-
resistant, or water-resistant, so be careful not to get moisture in any
openings. Learn more about water and sweat resistance.
Clean your Powerbeats Pro earbuds and charging case if they come in contact
with anything that may cause stains or other damage, such as dirt or sand,
makeup, ink, soap, detergent, acids or acidic foods, or if they come in
contact with liquids, including those that may lead to skin irritation such as
sweat, salt water, soapy water, pool water, perfume, insect repellent,
lotions, sunscreen, oil, adhesive remover, hair dye, or solvents.
Avoid damaging your Powerbeats Pro when you clean them:
Make sure not to get any liquid in the openings. Don’t dry Powerbeats Pro or
case using an external heat source (for example, a hairdryer). Don’t use
cleaning products or compressed air. Don’t use sharp objects or abrasive
materials. Don’t insert a foreign object into the Lightning connector on the
case (for example, a cotton swab or a paper towel).
Clean your Powerbeats Pro
1. Remove the Powerbeats Pro earbuds from the charging case. 2. Disconnect
the charging cable from both the case and your computer or power adapter. 3.
To clean the charging contacts on Powerbeats Pro, use a cotton swab slightly
dampened with warm water. To
clean the charging pins on the case, use a lint-free cloth slightly dampened
with warm water. If necessary, you can slightly dampen the cotton swab or
cloth with 70 percent isopropyl alcohol. 4. Use a soft, dry, lint-free cloth

cable or connector becomes warm during use or the case won’t charge,
disconnect it from your computer or power adapter and clean the Lightning
connector with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth. Do not use liquids or cleaning
products when cleaning the Lightning connector.
About your Beats eartips
Learn how to use and clean the eartips that come with your Beats earphones.
Select the right size
Beats earphones come with several sets of eartips. Choose the pair that’s most
comfortable and provides the best sound experience for you.
Insert or remove
If your earphones don’t already have eartips attached, choose a set of eartips
and attach them. Then gently insert the eartip into your ear. You can adjust
the eartip until it feels secure.
To remove the eartip from your ear, twist the earphone gently and pull it away
from your ear.
Clean your eartips
1. Gently remove the eartips from the earphones. If you don’t remove the
eartips before you clean them, you might damage your earphones.
2. Use warm water and mild soap on a damp cloth to remove dirt and earwax
from the eartips. Don’t use harsh cleaning products.
3. Rinse the soap away completely with warm water. 4. Let your eartips air
dry.
Before you put your eartips back on your earphones, make sure that the eartips
are dry.
Wearing your Beats powerbeats pro
To make sure that you have the best experience when you wear your AirPods,
EarPods, or Beats devices, here’s some information about getting a good fit
and potential skin sensitivities.
A better fit means better sound performance and comfort
For optimal sound performance, including features with passive noise
isolation, active noise cancellation, and transparency, AirPods, EarPods, and
Beats headphones and earphones require skin contact. When worn properly, your
AirPods, EarPods, and Beats headphones and earphones should provide a snug but
comfortable fit.
Keeping your Apple and Beats devices–as well as your skin–clean and dry
maximizes comfort and prevents longterm damage to your device. This is
especially important after workouts with AirPods Pro, a Powerbeats product,
Beats Studio Buds, or Beats Fit Pro; or after exposure to liquids such as
sweat, soap, shampoo, makeup, sunscreen, and lotions that can potentially
cause skin irritations.
