When the indicator flashes white, it indicates that the earbuds are in the charging case and are in Pairing mode. When the indicator flashes red, it indicates that the earbuds are in the charging case and are being restored to their factory settings. When the indicator is off, it indicates that the charging case has run out of battery. The indicator turns off when the charger is removed, or when the earbuds are fully charged with a wireless charger. Non-official chargers and data cables will trigger earbuds' overvoltage protection function, which may cause the indicator to flash.
