Cleaning Headsets
The foam pads used with Vocollect headsets were designed for both comfort and hygiene. The materials naturally
inhibit the growth of bacteria and can be cleaned by rinsing with water and drying.
Note:
Commercial cleaning solvents are not recommended.
• Clean the plastic parts of the headsets with a soft cloth dampened with water. To clean and disinfect the headset
plastic, use a pre-moistened alcohol wipe.
• If the Talkman Connectors or plugs become contaminated, use a pre-moistened alcohol wipe to remove dirt or
residue.
• If the metal connection points on the Talkman's Connectors become discolored, use a soft pencil eraser to clean
them.
• Do not use unapproved liquids to clean the yellow, blue, and red Talkman Connectors (TCOs) and any associated
headset, scanner, or device plugs.
• Hand or machine wash dual-cupped headset earpad covers in cold or warm water, then air dry the covers. The
covers are made of 100% cotton flannel and may shrink if dried in a clothes dryer.

Cleaning the Headband Pad
Note: Honeywell strongly recommends that you leave the headband pad in place when cleaning it. If you
must remove the entire pad to clean it, use care to line up the headband pad with the topmost part of the
headband when you place it back on the headband.
• Leave the headband in place and simply wipe the headband with a soft cloth. If necessary, use a pre-moistened
alcohol wipe to clean and disinfect the unit.
