Using Your iHome Headphones

The earpieces are marked “L” and “R”. Place the “L” earpiece in your left ear and the “R” earpiece 

in your right ear for proper fit and best sound. If the earpieces are inserted incorrectly they will not 

fit properly in your ears and the sound quality will not be satisfactory.

NOTE: Your iB27 headphones are supplied with three different size silicon tips (S-M-L) for 

maximum comfort and to seal out unwanted noise. The “M” (medium) size tips were installed at our 

factory. If you find that the installed tips are too small or too large for your ears, you may remove 

them and replace them with the larger or smaller size accessory tips. To replace the tips simply pull 

them off the earpieces. To install different size tips, push them on to the earpieces and make sure 

they are fully seated on each earpiece so that they do not come off when you remove the earpiece 

from your ear. If one of the tips remains in your ear when you remove the headphones, remove the 

tip carefully and avoid pushing it further into your ear canal. Seek medical assistance if one of the 

tips becomes lodged in your ear and you are unable to remove it.

Connect the headphone plug to the headphone jack of your music player. Be sure that the plug is 

fully inserted into the jack. If the plug is not fully inserted you may only hear sound from one 

earpiece.

To protect your hearing, always start listening with the In-Line Volume Control set to a low level and 

gradually increase the volume to a comfortable listening level. 

Note: You may have to adjust the volume control on your music player as well as the In-Line 

Volume Control on your headphones to find the most satisfactory sound level. If one control is set 

too low and the other is set too high, the sound may be distorted. Try setting the volume control 

on your music player halfway between the Min and Max settings, and then use the In-Line Volume 

Control on your iHome headphones to make final adjustments.

In-Line Control with Microphone

Model iB27 includes an in-line, one-button controller that allows you to answer and end phone calls 

‘hands-free’.  You may also be able to record voice memos and control the music playback if your 

specific phone model provides for control of those features through the headphone jack.

Note: Not all of the hands free functions are available on all phones. You may find that some 

functions may work with your phone while others do not. This is due to the design of your specific 

phone and is not an indication of any problem with the iB27 ear buds.

Answer / End Calls

When an incoming call is received briefly press the controller button once to answer the call and 

speak into the microphone. To end the call, briefly press the controller button again.

Music Playback Control

If your phone or music player provides for this feature through its headphone jack press the 

controller button once to begin playback and once again to pause playback. Press the controller 

button twice to skip to the next track, or three times to skip back to the previous track.

Voice Memo Recording

If your phone or music player provides for this feature through its headphone jack, place your 

phone in the Voice Memo Recording mode, then press the controller button briefly to begin voice 

recording and speak into the microphone. Press again to end the recording. Note: To listen to your 

voice memo recording you must use the controls on your phone. You cannot access recorded 

voice memos from the iB27 in-line controller.

Voice Control Function

If your phone allows certain voice control commands through its headphone jack you may be able 

to perform some or all of those functions from the iB27 controller. Press and hold the controller 

button and speak your command into the microphone, then release the controller button.

IMPORTANT! Listening at high volume for long periods of time can result in long-term hearing 

damage. For your safety, do not use headphones if they would prevent you from hearing warning 

sounds, such as while driving a car or motorcycle, riding a bike, etc. Remember that noise isolation 

type earphones such as the iB27 are very effective in blocking outside noise, including warning 

sounds. Always be aware of your surroundings and do not use these earphones in situations that 

require you to hear warning sounds.

NOTE: In extremely cold or dry air conditions you may notice a slight ‘tingling’ feeling in your ears 

when using in-ear headphones. This is the result of the build-up of static electricity in your body. 

This is normal and not an indication of any problem with your earphones.
