To maintain water resistant performance

Carefully note the precautions below to ensure proper use of the headset.

• Make sure the USB Type-C port cover is closed securely when using the headset. If there is any foreign material on the cover or it is not completely closed, water resistant performance cannot be maintained. Water may get inside and cause the headset to malfunction.
• Make sure the sound output part of the headset does not come in contact with strong splashes of water.
• Do not drop the headset into water, and do not use underwater.
• Do not allow the headset to remain wet in a cold environment, as the water may freeze. To prevent malfunction, make sure to wipe off any water after use.
• Do not place the headset in water or use it in a humid place such as a bathroom.
• Do not drop the headset or expose it to mechanical shock. Doing so may deform or damage the headset, resulting in deterioration of water resistance performance.
• If the headset gets wet,
  1. Use a soft dry cloth to wipe off any water that gets on the headset.
  2. Turn the microphone hole downward and gently tap it about 10 times on a dry cloth, etc. to remove any water collected inside.
