Battery
Charging the battery
Fully charge the battery before using the earbuds for the first time or when they have been
unused for extended periods. The earbuds will power on while charging. When the battery is
completely discharged, it needs at least 10 minutes to start to working.
Check the direction of each earbud, insert them into the corresponding slots, and then
connect the charger.
The charging case has a built-in battery that is charged along with the earbuds.
You can charge the earbuds by placing them into the charging case without connecting it to
an electric socket.
Use only Samsung-approved chargers and cables. Unapproved chargers or cables can
cause the battery to explode or damage the Galaxy Buds.
•
Connecting the charger improperly may cause serious damage to the charging
case. Any damage caused by misuse is not covered by the warranty.
•
Use only the USB Type-C cable supplied with the Galaxy Buds. The charging case
may be damaged if you use a Micro USB cable.
•
Chargers are sold separately.
•
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.
•
You cannot use your earbuds’ wireless features while charging the battery.
•
Close the charging case when you store or charge the earbuds.
•
If there is sweat or liquid on the charging contacts, corrosion may occur on the
Galaxy Buds. When there is sweat or liquid on the charging contacts or earbuds,
clean them before inserting the earbuds in the charging case.
•
Do not put the wing tips on the earbuds in the wrong direction. The earbuds will
not be charged if they are not properly inserted into the charging case.

If there is sweat or liquid on the charging contacts, corrosion may occur on the Galaxy
Buds. When there is sweat or liquid on the charging contacts or earbuds, clean them
before inserting the earbuds in the charging case.
•
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 earbuds and the charging case may heat up. This is normal and
should not affect the earbuds’ lifespan or performance. If the battery gets hotter than
usual, the charger may stop charging.
•
If the earbuds and charging case are not charging properly, take them with the charger to
a Samsung Service Centre.

Notices for using Bluetooth
Bluetooth is a wireless technology standard that uses a 2.4 GHz frequency to connect to
various devices over short distances. It can connect and exchange data with other Bluetooth
enabled devices, such as mobile devices, without connecting via cables.
•
To avoid problems when connecting your earbuds to another device, place the devices
close to each other.
•
Ensure that your earbuds and the other Bluetooth device are within the Bluetooth
connection range (10 m). The distance may vary depending on the environment the
devices are used in.
•
Ensure that there are no obstacles between the earbuds and a connected device,
including human bodies, walls, corners, or fences.
•
Do not touch the Bluetooth antenna of a connected device.
•
Bluetooth uses the same frequency as some industrial, scientific, medical, and low power
products and interference may occur when making connections near these types of
products.
•
Some devices, especially those that are not tested or approved by the Bluetooth SIG, may
be incompatible with the earbuds.
•
Do not use the Bluetooth feature for illegal purposes (for example, pirating copies of files
or illegally tapping communications for commercial purposes).

The SAR is a value that corresponds to the relative amount of RF energy absorbed by the user
of a wireless device.
Health and Safety
51
The SAR value of a device is the result of an extensive testing, measuring and calculation
process. It does not represent how much RF the device emits. All devices are tested at their
highest value in strict laboratory settings. But when in operation, the SAR of a device can
be substantially less than the level reported to ISED. This is because of a variety of factors
including its proximity to a base station antenna, design and other factors. What is important
to remember is that each device meets strict federal guidelines. Variations in SARs do not
represent a variation in safety.
All devices must meet the federal standard, which incorporates a substantial margin of safety.
As stated above, variations in SAR values between different model devices do not mean
variations in safety. SAR values at or below the federal standard of 1.6 W/kg are considered
safe for use by the public.
This device has been tested and meets RF exposure guidelines when used with an accessory
that contains no metal and that positions the mobile device 0mm from the body.
