XO X40 TWS Wireless Earbuds - Green

Important safety notice for headphones in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2023/988 on general product safety (GPSR)

This is a targeted safety notice for the correct and safe use of headphones (in-ear, on-ear, over-ear, wired and wireless, including noise-cancelling models). Due to the risk of hearing damage from high volume, the presence of batteries, magnets, small parts, and possible limitation of environmental awareness, please follow the instructions below.

Basic safety and handling principles

• Keep out of reach of children: Replacement ear tips, rings, and small parts pose a choking and swallowing hazard.
• Volume: Listen at a reasonable level and take breaks; prolonged listening at high volume can cause permanent hearing damage.
• Environmental awareness: When walking, exercising, and in traffic, choose modes that allow ambient sound; do not use headphones while driving if prohibited by regulations.
• Cables and attachments: Route cables away from walkways and avoid snagging on objects; when worn around the neck, avoid risk of strangulation.
• Water and dust: Respect the level of resistance; do not use in damp conditions or while diving unless explicitly stated by the manufacturer.
• Magnets and implants: Headphones contain magnets; persons with implanted devices should maintain the recommended distance.

Correct and safe use

• Proper size and fit: Choose suitable ear tips and position to reduce the need to increase volume and avoid ear pressure.
• ANC and modes: Noise cancellation does not replace caution; in situations requiring environmental awareness, turn it off or use a pass-through mode.
• Charging: Charge only with the recommended cable and power source, in a dry and ventilated place; do not cover the device while charging.
• Sharing: Do not share headphones without cleaning; this reduces the risk of ear infection transmission.

Cleaning, maintenance, and storage

• Cleaning: Regularly clean ear tips and grills with a soft dry or slightly damp cloth; do not immerse in water or use aggressive cleaners.
• Maintenance: Remove earwax from openings and meshes; replace damaged ear tips and worn cushions.
• Storage: Store in a case, in a dry place away from direct sunlight and high temperatures; do not wrap cables into sharp bends.

Specific health warnings

• Hearing and comfort: If you experience ringing in the ears, pain, or pressure, stop use and lower the volume; if problems persist, consult a doctor.
• Allergies and skin reactions: Some metals, silicone, or adhesives may cause irritation; if redness or itching occurs, stop using the headphones and change the ear tip material.
• Dizziness and balance: Intense noise cancellation modes may cause an unpleasant pressure sensation; in such cases, choose a different mode or take a break.

Disposal

• Safe disposal: Hand in electronic headphones and charging cases to electronic waste collection; dispose of small batteries separately according to local regulations.

Incidents and contact

• In case of an incident (ear pain, inflammation, overheating during charging, injury due to reduced environmental awareness), immediately stop using the product. Keep the product and proof of purchase for complaint handling.
