Listen to the Ambient Sound (LAS), Active Noise Cancellation (ANC)

Listen to the Ambient Sound (LAS) 

The Listen to the Ambient Sound (LAS) function allows you to listen to the ambient sound so that you can recognize the surrounding situation and any potential risks.
Touch and hold the left or right earbud to switch between the ANC mode and the LAS model.

• NOTE: ANC is an acronym for Active Noise Cancellation

 CAUTION: When the LAS mode is enabled, you may hear the ambient sound become loud suddenly. When using the ANC function outdoors, pay attention to the surrounding environment for safety

Active Noise Cancellation (ANC)

The Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) function blocks any ambient sound. So, you can use the function to listen to music or watch a video without interference.

UVnano

The charging case has a built-in UVnano LED, which allows you to use your earbuds cleanly. If you charge the earbuds wired after mounting them on the charging case and closing the cover, the UVnano LED operates for 10 minutes. 

*UVnano is a compound word derived from the words UV and its unit, nanometer.

• NOTE: The UVnano indicator turns on blue while the UVnano LED is on.

CAUTION: Be aware that the temperature of the earbuds may rise while the UVnano LED is on

 Charging

When the charging cable is connected, the charging status is displayed in the charging case.
NOTE: The earbuds and the charging case are charged at the same time. The charging port on the charging case cannot be used to supply power to mobile phones, etc.

Wireless Charging

Align the bottom center of the charging case with the center of the wireless charger.

NOTE: The wireless charger is not provided. The wireless charging function may not work in some wireless chargers. Wireless charging feature charge at a slower rate
due to less power being transmitted to the charging case.

Checking the Battery Status

If earbuds are mounted in the charging case, the earbuds’ battery status is displayed.
Otherwise, the charging case’s battery status is displayed.
If the earbuds are mounted in the charging case while plugged in, the UVnano process will commence for ten minutes.
Once this process is complete, the charging case’s battery status will be displayed.
