Using Your iHome Earbuds

Your iHome earbuds feature a foldable neckband for compact storage. Unfold the neckband 
completely, place it behind your neck with the cord on your right side and insert the earbuds into 
your ears. 

In addition your iB33 are classified as IPX5 meaning that they are protected against “low 

pressure jets of water from all directions”, so you can safely use your ear buds in all kinds of 
weather conditions without fear of water damage. 
Note: Do not use these earbuds while swimming. They are not designed to be submerged in water 
or any other liquids.

NOTE: Your iB33 earbuds 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 earbuds, 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 earbuds plug to the earphone 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.

Please review this manual carefully to make sure you are getting the maximum benefit from all of 
the features of your new ear buds, and keep this manual for future reference.

In-Line Control with Microphone

Model iB33 includes an in-line, one-button controller that allows you to answer and end phone 
calls ‘hands-free’. You may also be able to control various phone functions using voice commands 
and/or control the music playback if your specific phone model provides for control of those 
features through the earphone jack.

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 earphone 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 time to Restart track/Previous track.

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 iB33 controller. Press and hold the 

controller 

button

 and speak your command into the microphone, then release the 

controller button

.

Voice Commands

If your phone or music player provides for this feature through its headphone jack, press and hold 

the 

controller button

 to activate your device's voice commands menu. Once your device has 

launched the voice command menu you may then speak your instructions into the microphone, 
accessing features such as hands-free messaging, navigation, and more.  For the specific 
commands and operations accessible through your device's headphone jack, please refer to the 
user manual of your device.

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 iB33 earbuds.

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

when using in-ear earbuds. 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 earbuds.

Cord Management

The hang tag at the top of the package also functions as a convenient cord management device. 
Pass the earphone’s plug through the opening in the hang tag as shown and then wind the 
earphone cord around the hang tag. This will keep your earphones cord tangle free and always 
ready to use.

IMPORTANT!

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

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

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

as the iB33 are very effective in blocking outside noise, including warning sounds. Always be aware 

of your surroundings and do not use these earbuds in situations that require you to hear warning 

sounds.
