Limited Lifetime Warranty Information
iB18-072116-B
Printed in China
Using Your iHome Earbuds
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.
Connect the earbud 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 Volume Control of your music player or
game player set to a low level and gradually increase the volume to a comfortable listening level.
NOTE: Your iB18 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.
In-Line Control with Microphone
Model iB18 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 headphone 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 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 restart the current track or go to the
previous track (depending on how close you are to the start of the track).
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, voice memo recording, 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 iB18 earbuds.
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 noise isolation
type earbuds such as the iB18 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.
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 Managment
The hang tag at the top of the package also functions as a convenient cord management device.
Pass the earbud plug through the opening in the hang tag as shown and then wind the earbud
cord around the hang tag. This will keep your earbud cord tangle free and always ready to use.
