Optional replacement earbuds can be ordered from

You are cautioned that any changes or modifications 

not expressly approved in this manual could void your 

authority to operate this equipment.

About noise isolation earbuds

Supplied noise isolation earbuds provide a snug fit for 

effective attenuation of ambient noise.

Notes

  Prolonged use of snugly fitting earbuds may strain 

your ears. If you experience discomfort, discontinue 

use.

  The pressure-relieving urethane cushion is extremely 

soft. If it breaks or detaches from the earbuds, it will 

not take its correct position and the earbuds will lose 

their noise isolation function.

  The urethane cushion may deteriorate over time. If 

the pressure-relieving power is lost and the urethane 

cushion hardens, the earbuds may lose their noise 

isolation function.

  Do not wash the earbuds. Keep them dry, otherwise 

they may deteriorate quickly.

About hybrid silicone rubber earbuds

Keep earbuds clean. To clean the earbuds, wash them 

with a mild detergent solution.

Removing the headphones

After use, remove the headphones slowly.

Note

Headphones are designed to fit closely in your ears. If the 

headphones are pressed hard while in use or taken off too 

quickly, they may cause injury.

Wearing headphones may produce a diaphragm click 

sound. This is not a malfunction.

Precautions

High volume may affect your hearing. 

For traffic safety, do not use while 

driving or cycling.

Install the earbuds firmly. If an earbud 

accidentally detaches and is left in 

your ear, it may cause injury.

  Do not leave the stereo headphones in a location 

subject to direct sunlight, heat or moisture.

Compatible products

Use this unit with smartphones.

Notes

  If the microphone of the unit does not function, or 

you feel the volume level is not enough, connect the 

unit to your smartphone via the supplied conversion 

cord.

  This unit is not guaranteed to operate digital music 

players.
