The  microphone  can  be  rotated  and  placed  on  the  right  or  left  side  of  the  headset.  To 
adjust  the  microphone  placement  rotate  the  microphone  from  its  base  and  bend  the 
flexible  boom.  For  clear  and  crisp  communication,  the  microphone  should  be  placed 
approximately 3mm from the lips.

Battery Type 
 

 

The SH10X uses two AA batteries (supplied). Always use good quality alkaline batteries 
to  ensure  the  best  performance.  DO  NOT  use  rechargeable  batteries  as  they  provide 
reduced and uneven voltage which can interfere with the correct headset performance. 
 
The  SH10X  has  a  failsafe  mode  and  will  continue  its  basic  operations  of  hearing  and 
transmitting in the event of battery failure or without batteries fitted.  
 
DO NOT mix old and new batteries together. 

 

Battery Life 

 

The  use  of  alkaline  batteries  can  typically  provide  up  to  40  hours  of  use,  the  exact 
duration however depends on the amount of noise reduction required in your cockpit. To 
maximise battery life turn off ANR when headset is not in use.
