Health instructions

When worn, earbuds remain in contact with your skin. If used properly, they will not only be more comfortable to wear, but will also give the best sound quality and noise canceling.

  • Using earbuds at a high volume for long periods of time may cause damage to your hearing. We recommend that you do not use your earbuds for more than 60 minutes at a time and that the volume does not exceed 60% of the maximum. Please remove your earbuds when sleeping.
  • If irritating substances such as sweat, soapy water, or skincare products are attached to the surface of the earbuds, they cause skin irritation. We recommend that you keep your wireless earbuds and your skin dry and clean to prevent long-term damage to your earbuds.
  • If you experience itching, redness, or other signs of irritation, we recommend that you immediately stop using and clean the earbuds and observe whether your discomfort resolves spontaneously. If the discomfort is pronounced, we recommend that you consult your doctor before deciding whether to continue wearing the earbuds.

Cleaning and maintenance

For better product performance (e.g., sound quality, noise reduction, phone calls) and to prevent problems such as ear canal allergies, we recommend that you clean your earbuds regularly (once 1 week/time). You can use alcohol or disinfectant to clean the surface of the earbuds. To prevent moisture or water ingress, do not use damp cloths on the charging contacts or charging port, speaker mesh, air outlet, or microphones.

Clean the charging case, charging port, and charging contacts:

  • Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the charging case. If necessary, you can also wipe the external surface of the charging case with 70% alcohol. Make sure the charging case is dry naturally before putting the earbuds back.
  • Use a clean, dry, soft-bristled brush to clean any crumbs from the charging port.
  • Use a clean, dry, pointed cotton swab to gently wipe the surface of the charging contacts of the charging case.
  • Do not use a damp cloth. Do not use excessive force when wiping to avoid deformation or surface damage to the contact points of the charging post inside the charging case.

1If your earbuds have been in contact with sweat, body wash, shampoo, or other liquids, or if worn during exercise, please make sure the surface of the earbuds and the charging contacts are clean and dry before putting the earbuds into the charging case. Clean the sound hole, air outlet, and microphones: Use a clean, dry, pointed cotton swab to gently brush out the dirt and earwax from the hole or mesh, then wipe clean with a soft cloth.
