How to prepare the Headset for Use
3.3.1
Adjusting the Headband
For best comfort and noise attenuation, the headband has to be adjusted to fit your
head properly.
Wear the headset so that the headband runs over the top of your head and adjust
the headband so that
• your ears are completely enclosed by the ear cushions,
• you feel a gentle pressure around your ears,
• both ends of the headband have the same length to ensure a proper fit.
3.3.2
Adjusting the Microphone
• Turn the microphone holder (not the gooseneck!) to
position the microphone on the left or right hand
side of the mouth.
• Adjust the gain of the microphone by using a small
screwdriver. Turn the control to the right to increase
the gain or to the left to reduce the gain.
