DEVICE FIT
Adjust Fit
The headband may be adjusted to ensure the cups t correctly
around the ears by sliding the headband apart. With the slider
arms fully closed place the headband directly in the middle of the
head. Slowly adjust one slider arm at a time as needed to ensure
each cup is fully covering your ear. The two slider arms should be
equidistant from the headband to ensure the best t. Be sure the
headband is resting snugly against the top of your head.
IMPORTANT:
The special, replaceable Gel Sealing Rings are made
for maximum comfort and noise protection. There should be no
gaps between the ear seal and your head. For best t ensure your
hair is not under the ear seal. To test for a good seal, run your index
nger around the area between the ear seal and your skull and
ensure there are no gaps.
OPERATION
Installing Batteries
The PRO EARS Silver 22 use two 'AAA' size 1.5 volt batteries.
Alkaline batteries provide the best service. To install, turn the
volume controls to the OFF position. Carefully slide the battery
cover on the exterior of the cup without the on/off roller up to
reveal the battery holder. Remove the old batteries; insert the new
batteries with negative to negative and positive to positive side.
The correct polarity is marked in the battery holder. Once batteries
are installed, carefully replace the battery compartment cover on
the ear cup. We recommend the volume controls be turned to the
'Off' position when not in use.
Adjust Volume
Before putting on your PRO EARS turn the Volume Control roller to
the 'Off' position. Turn on the Volume Control and adjust as needed
for comfort. Turn on the volume control and adjust the volume so
that you can hear your external environment as if you were not
wearing a hearing protector. To increase the Gain, slowly increase
the Volume Control.

Changing the Ear Seals
The high performance ear seal should be replaced if the outer
surface becomes stiff, cracked or damaged. Depending on use,
storage and wear conditions we recommend the ear seals be
replaced every 6 to 18 months. New ear seals can be obtained at
www.proears.com. To replace the ear seal simply insert a at head
screw driver inside the cup, between the hard plastic ange of the
ear seal and the cup and give a slight twist. The ear seal should
separate from the cup with a gentle motion. Be careful not to
damage the electronics or the speaker.
IMPORTANT!

PRO EARS are extremely durable however it is not advisable to
expose them to extreme heat or cold or direct moisture as this
can damage the electronics.

Check to ensure batteries are in good condition. Even though
alkaline batteries have long life it is advisable to always carry a
