Getting the Best Sound
Getting the best sound with your Apple In-Ear Headphones with Remote and Mic requires using the eartips that provide the best seal. Try all three sizes (S, M, L) in each ear and choose the ones that fit snugly and comfortably in your ear canal, like a pair of earplugs. When the fit is right, most outside noises are blocked and music has a rich bass sound.
Cleaning or Replacing the Mesh Caps
The mesh caps protect the headphone speakers from damage. If the mesh caps become clogged with earwax or the sound becomes muffled, clean or replace them (an extra pair is included).To clean the mesh caps, first remove the silicone eartips, then unscrew the mesh caps from the headphones. Soak the mesh caps in very hot tap water with a drop of dish soap for 30 minutes. When the wire mesh is completely unclogged, rinse with cool water and dry thoroughly before screwing them securely back onto the headphones and replacing the silicone eartips.
WARNING: Do not use the headphones without the silicone eartips.
Before attaching eartips, make sure the mesh caps are securely attached.
Important Safety Information
Avoid Hearing Loss
WARNING: Permanent hearing loss may occur if headphones are used at high volume. You can adapt over time to a higher volume of sound, which may sound normal but can be damaging to your hearing. Set the volume to a safe level before that happens. If you experience ringing in your ears or speech sounds muffled, reduce the volume or discontinue use of your headphones and have your hearing checked. The louder the volume, the less time is required before your hearing could be affected. Hearing experts suggest that to protect your hearing:
ÂÂ Limit the amount of time you use headphones at high volume.
ÂÂ Avoid turning up the volume to block out noisy surroundings.
ÂÂ Turn the volume down if you can’t hear people speaking near you.
Keep Out of Reach of Children
WARNING: The small parts included with this product can be a choking hazard. This product is not intended for use by small children and should be kept away from children under 3 years of age.

Do Not Use While Driving
Important: Use of headphones while operating a vehicle is not recommended and is illegal in some areas. Check and obey the applicable laws and regulations on the use of headphones while operating a vehicle. Be careful and attentive while driving. Stop listening to your audio device if you find it disruptive or distracting while operating any type of vehicle or performing another activity that requires your full attention.
Do Not Use When You Need to Hear External Sounds
WARNING: Apple In-Ear Headphones reduce external sounds. You may not hear sounds that you rely on to provide a warning or alert. For your safety, don’t use in-ear headphones where the inability to hear outside sounds may present a danger to you or to others.
In Case of Skin Irritation
Headphones can lead to ear infections if not properly cleaned. Clean your eartips frequently with an antiseptic, such as isopropyl alcohol. Some individuals may also be sensitive to silicone elastomers. If rash or other skin problems develop, discontinue use. If the problem persists, consult a physician.
Avoid Electrostatic Shock
When using headphones in areas where the air is very dry, it is easy to build up static electricity and possible for your ear to receive a small electrostatic discharge from the headphones. To minimize the risks of electrostatic discharge from the headphones, avoid using the headphones in extremely dry environments or touch a grounded unpainted metal object before inserting the headphones.
Disposal and Recycling Information
Your product must be disposed of properly according to local laws and regulations. When your product reaches its end of life, contact Apple or your local authorities to learn about recycling options.
