Charging the
battery
Fully charge the battery before using the Gear IconX earbuds for the first time or
when it has been unused for extended periods.
You can charge the Gear IconX earbuds with the charging case and a
charger (sold
separately). The charging case, which has a built-in battery, is charged along with the
earbuds. You can charge the earbuds by placing them into the charging case
without connecting
to an electric socket.
Use only Samsung-approved chargers, batteries, and cables. Unapproved
chargers
or cables can cause the battery to explode or damage the Gear
IconX
earbuds.
1
Push the cover open button to open the charging
case.
2
Check the direction of each earbud and insert them into the left and right
slots
of the charging case.
3
Close the charging case.

4
Connect the USB cable to the USB power adaptor, and then plug the end of the
USB
cable into the multipurpose jack of the charging case.
You can also connect the charging case to a computer via the included USB
connector and cable to charge the Gear IconX earbuds.
Connecting the charger improperly may cause serious damage to the
charging
case. Any damage caused by misuse is not covered by the
warranty.
5
Plug the USB power adaptor into an electric socket.
The batteries of the earbuds and the charging case are charged simultaneously.
•
Using a power source other than the charger, such as a computer, may
result
in a slower charging speed due to a lower electric current.
•
While charging, the charging case may heat up. This is normal and
should
not affect the Gear IconX earbuds’ lifespan or performance. If the
battery gets
hotter than usual, the charger may stop charging.

6
After fully charging, disconnect the charging case from the charger. First
unplug
the charger from the charging case, and then unplug it from the
electric
socket.
• To
save energy, unplug the charger when not in use. The charger does not
have
a power switch, so you must unplug the charger from the electric
socket when not
in use to avoid wasting power. The charger should remain
close
to the electric socket and be easily accessible while charging.
• If
the Gear IconX earbuds and the charging case are fully discharged, it
may take a while for the Gear IconX to start charging.
• If
the earbuds and charging case are not charging properly, take them
with
the charger to a Samsung Service Center.
Indicator light identification
The indicator lights inform you of your Gear IconX’s charging status. The earbuds’
indicator lights are located on the front of the charging case and show the
charging status
of each earbud, respectively. The indicator light on the rear of the
charging case indicates
the charging status of the case itself.
