Operation
The product must only be connected to suitable microphone inputs in order to
avoid distortions or mismatches that could cause damage to the microphone or the
connected audio device. Pay attention to the connection values in the "Technical
data".
Never direct the microphone at the sound outlet of loudspeakers, as this can result in
feedback which may damage the loudspeakers and the connected amplifier.
a) Securing the microphone
• Place the earset microphone on an ear and secure it with the ear hook. Adjust the microphone
to the desired speaking position. Ensure that the product sits in a secure position. You can place
the microphone on the left or right side of your head as required.
• If you do not wish to place the microphone on your ear, click the clip with the half-open side
onto the microphone's ear hook, ensuring that the plastic tubing does not cover the ear hook.
You can then attach the microphone to your tie, collar or other parts of your clothing using the
clamp on the clip.
• You can feed the microphone cable through clothing or holes in accessories in order to conceal it.
b) Using the microphone
• Turn off the audio device to which the microphone will be connected. Turn the sensitivity of
your audio device to zero using the corresponding input level control (refer to the operating
instructions of the audio device you are using).
• Insert the 3.5 mm jack plug on the microphone cable into the corresponding adapter. Then
connect it to the microphone connection on your audio device.
There are three connection adapters available. Choose the one that matches your
device.
• Turn on your audio device with the connected sound source (loudspeakers).
• Test the microphone by speaking a few words (e.g. counting whole numbers) whilst slowly
moving the input level control on the audio device upwards until the desired output volume is
reached.
Air movements such as wind, moving the microphone or breathing create deep
frequencies in the sound spectrum. The attached windscreen made of sponge
prevents such sounds from being recorded.
Maintenance and cleaning
• The product does not require maintenance except for occasional cleaning.
•
Under no circumstances should you service any of the components in the interior of the device,
therefore never open it.
• Before cleaning, remove the 3.5 mm jack plug from the connected audio device.
•
Use a soft, antistatic and lint-free cloth to clean the device. Dust can be removed easily using a
soft and clean long-haired brush and a vacuum cleaner.
•
Do not use any abrasive or chemical cleaning materials.
Disposal
Electronic devices are recyclable waste and must not be disposed of in the household
waste.
At the end of its service life, dispose of the product according to the relevant statutory
regulations.
