CAUTION The charging head for plugging the USB cable into a wall outlet is not
included. Use only Samsung charging devices rated with an output voltage of 5v
and an output current of over 150mA (sold separately). Samsung accessories are
designed for your device to maximize battery life. Using other accessories may
cause damage, and damage may not be covered by warranty.
While charging, the device and the charger may become hot. This does not affect the
device’s lifespan or performance and is in the device’s normal range of operation.
Remove the device from the charger and wait for the device to cool down. For more
information, visit https://www.samsung.com/us/support/answer/ANS00076952.
NOTE Do not disassemble, modify, or repair your device. Placing objects, such as
magnetic stripe cards, including credit cards, phone cards, passbooks, and
boarding passes, next to the device or charger may cause damage from the
charger or device’s magnetic field.
Maintaining water and dust resistance
CAUTION To avoid electric shock and damage to your device, do not charge
device while it is wet or in an area where it could get wet. Do not handle device,
charger or cords with wet hands while charging.
The device is not impervious to dust and water damage in any situation. It is important
that all compartments are closed tightly.
Follow these tips carefully to prevent damage to the device and maintain dust and
water resistance performance:
Water resistant based on IPX7 rating, which means submersion in up to 1 meter of
fresh water for up to 30 minutes based on international standard ISO 60529. Not
advised for beach or pool use. Charging case is not water resistant. If the earbuds are
damaged, they are not guaranteed to be water resistant. If the earbuds or your
hands are wet, they must be dried thoroughly prior to handling.

2. With the phone face down, place the compatible device on the back of the
phone to charge. A notification sound or vibration occurs when charging begins.
NOTE Wireless power sharing works with most Qi-Certified devices. Requires
minimum 30% battery to share. Speed and power efficiency of charge varies by
device. May not work with some accessories, covers, or other manufacturer’s
devices. If you have trouble connecting or charging is slow, remove any cover

For best results when using Wireless power sharing, please note:
• Remove any accessories or cover before using the feature. Depending on the
type of accessory or cover, Wireless power sharing may not work properly.
• The location of the wireless charging coil may vary by device, so you may need
to adjust the placement to make a connection. When charging starts, a
notification or vibration will occur, so the notification will help you know you've
made a connection. During charging, do not move or use either device.
• Call reception or data services may be affected, depending on your network
environment.
• Charging speed or efficiency can vary depending on device condition or
surrounding environment.
• Do not use headphones.

Attach the ear tip
Before wearing the earbuds, be sure to attach the ear tips. Wearing the earbuds
without ear tips may hurt your ears.
1. Select the ear tip size that best fits your ear.
2. Hook the ear tip's groove to the earbud's fixation hook on one side and gently pull
the ear tip to cover the earbud. Do not pull the ear tip excessively when you
attach or detach it because it may tear.
3. Follow the same procedure for the other earbud.

Wear the earbuds
Place the earbuds in your ears correctly for a comfortable fit.

them so that you see the imprinted direction marks. Adjust the earbuds until they
fit comfortably in your ears.
2. The touch-sensitive sensor will detect that you are wearing the earbuds and
emit a sound
NOTE You can optimize your earbud fit in the Galaxy Wearable app. For more
information, see Earbud fit test.
Coupling earbuds
Should you lose one of the earbuds, you can buy a replacement and couple the old
and new earbuds together.
1. Insert the earbuds into the charging case. The earbud battery indicator light will
flash red to indicate that the earbuds are not coupled.
2. Tap and hold the touch pad on both earbuds for seven seconds or more. When
the earbud battery indicator light flashes green and then turns off, the earbuds
are coupled and ready for use.
