Detailed Description

Each earbud has a touch area used to control playback, calls, power, noise cancellation, and other functions. The interchangeable earbud tip attaches to the end of the earbud and helps create a comfortable fit. Choose the size that sits securely without excessive pressure.

The charging case stores and recharges both earbuds when they are placed inside. A USB-C charging port on the case accepts power from a compatible USB power source. The case LED indicates charging status, while voice prompts provide connection, battery, power, and noise-canceling information.

Active noise-canceling technology reduces surrounding sound through electronic processing. ANC can be useful in environments such as public transportation or busy offices, but awareness of nearby traffic, announcements, and other hazards should take priority.

Safety

  • Use the earbuds only for their intended purpose.
  • Keep the earbuds and charging case away from heat, direct sunlight, humidity, and liquids.
  • Do not expose the built-in batteries to extremely high or low temperatures.
  • Do not operate the device if it has been exposed to liquid.
  • Do not use the earbuds or case after a drop or other damage.
  • Electrical repairs should be performed only by a qualified professional.
  • Keep the product away from children; it is not a toy.
  • IPX4 protection helps with light water exposure but does not make the earbuds suitable for submersion, swimming, or heavy water spray.
  • Use caution when ANC is enabled because reduced environmental sound may limit awareness of surrounding hazards.

The earbuds contain lithium-polymer batteries. Follow applicable local and state requirements when disposing of the product or its batteries. Do not place the device in ordinary fire or attempt to remove the battery by force.

This device is designed to comply with applicable FCC Part 15 requirements.

Faqs

How do I pair SoundMates Pro ANC Earbuds with my phone for the first time?

Remove both SoundMates Pro ANC earbuds from the charging case. Open your phone or tablet’s Bluetooth settings and select “SoundMates ANC” from the available device list. Wait for the voice prompt confirming that the device is connected. If the earbuds do not appear, return them to the case, remove them again, and make sure Bluetooth is enabled on the device before trying once more.

How can I charge the SoundMates Pro ANC earbuds and charging case correctly?

Place both earbuds into the charging case so they can begin charging automatically when the case has power. To recharge the case, connect the included USB-C cable to its charging port and plug the other end into a suitable USB power source. The case LED flashes green during charging and changes to solid green when the case is fully charged. Keep the charging contacts seated properly for reliable charging.

What should I do if the SoundMates Pro ANC earbuds will not connect or work properly?

Reset the earbuds if normal pairing or operation fails. Remove both earbuds and make sure they are powered off. Touch and hold both earbuds at the same time for 10 seconds, until the “Device Pairing” prompt plays. They should reconnect to each other automatically, followed by a “Soundmates Connected” prompt. Then open Bluetooth settings and select “SoundMates ANC” to create a fresh connection.

How do I turn active noise cancellation on or off?

After the earbuds are powered on, touch and hold the right earbud for about two seconds. A voice prompt announces either “Noise Canceling ON” or “Noise Canceling OFF,” confirming the selected mode. Use ANC when you want to reduce surrounding background noise, and switch it off when you prefer the standard listening mode. Avoid repeatedly tapping the earbud while adjusting it, since touch controls may register another command.

How do I control music and calls with the SoundMates Pro ANC touch controls?

Tap either earbud once to answer an incoming call, or tap either earbud twice to end a call. Touch and hold either earbud for two seconds to reject a call. Double-tap either earbud to play or pause audio. Triple-tap the right earbud to skip to the next song, or triple-tap the left earbud to return to the previous song. These commands work through the earbuds’ touch areas.

How do I use the voice assistant with SoundMates Pro ANC Earbuds?

Touch and hold the left earbud for approximately two seconds until a prompt sound indicates that the voice assistant function has activated. You can then speak commands supported by your connected phone, such as asking for information or controlling playback. Voice Assistant or Siri compatibility can vary by device and operating system, so confirm that the phone’s assistant is enabled and that the earbuds remain connected through Bluetooth.

Are SoundMates Pro ANC Earbuds safe to use around water or moisture?

The earbuds have an IPX4 waterproof level, which helps protect against light splashes and sweat during ordinary use. They are not designed for submersion, swimming, showers, or heavy exposure to rain. Keep the charging case and USB-C port away from liquids. Never charge or operate the earbuds if they have been exposed to liquid, because moisture can create a risk of electric shock, battery damage, or product failure.

What safety precautions should I follow when using or storing these earbuds?

Keep the SoundMates Pro ANC earbuds away from heat, direct sunlight, humidity, and extreme temperatures, which can damage the lithium polymer battery. Do not use the product after a drop or other damage, and do not attempt electrical repairs yourself. Keep the earbuds and charging case away from children because they are not toys. For disposal, follow applicable local rules for products containing rechargeable batteries, especially after the battery is fully discharged.
