urn the headset o if it emits any loud noise.
As with any complex electronic device, it is possible for this headset to fail during operation. Symptoms of failure, which may include loud tones, distortion, feedback squeals and loss of communications signal in the headset, can occur in either the Acoustic Noise Cancelling emits any loud noise and the related loss of communications in the Acoustic Noise Cancelling™ mode, turn o the power switch. The headset will continue to provide communications in the passive noise-reducing mode. If the problem persists, see “Troubleshooting” on page 44.
Be aware of sound dierences while wearing the headset. With the headset’s active and passive noise reduction, typical aircraft sounds (such as engines, propellers, warning
alarms, and other sound sources) may not sound familiar. Make sure you can hear and recognize these sounds when using the headset while operating any aircraft.
Do NOT make phone calls while piloting. Do not use the headset for telephone calls during flight operations.

NOTE: To test the fit, try speaking aloud with the headset o. Your voice should
sound mued in both ears; if not, select another tip size.
Each StayHear+ tip and earbud is marked with either an L or an R. Be sure to attach the left tip to the left earbud and the right tip to the right earbud.

FIT THE EARBUDS TO YOUR EAR

The StayHear+ tip allows the earbud to rest comfortably and securely in your ear. The tip wing fits just under your ear ridge.

CONDITIONS RELATED TO FIT

In very loud conditions, such as during takeo, you may experience a brief reduction in noise cancellation as the headset compensates for a momentary pressure change. If this continues when the sound level returns to normal, see “Acoustic Noise Cancellation” on page 19. If it persists, see “Troubleshooting” on page 44.
A low rumbling sound or frequent, brief losses of noise cancellation may indicate an improper fit or blocked earbud ports. See “Choose the correct StayHear®+ tips” on page 14 for information on proper fit or “Clean the headset” on page 40 for instructions on removing blockages.
During a long flight, you may feel a slight pressure point, which can be relieved by adjusting the headband position.

SECURE CLOTHING CLIP AND CONTROL MODULE HOLDER

The cable clips and control module holder enable you to secure the cable and control module to your clothing, a safety harness, sun visor rail, or aircraft headset hook for quick and easy access.
Press the side button to release and reposition the clip along the cable.
