Welcome

Thank you for purchasing the Bose
in-ear headphones. Bose® in-ear head­phones offer a combination of lifelike audio
performance and comfortable fit not available
from most conventional earbuds. Proprietary
Bose technologies provide a new level of lis­tening pleasure with performance that's faith­ful and realistic. Three sizes of ear tips allow
them to rest gently and softly in the outer
bowl of the ear (not your ear canal). A carry­ing case is included, small enough to fit in
your pocket.

Your headphones include:

• Small, medium, and large ear tips.
Medium tips already attached.

• Compact carrying case

Ear tips:

Large (Black)

Medium (Gray)
(installed)

Small (White)

Using your headphones

Bose® in-ear headphones are packaged with
medium-sized silicone ear tips installed;
small- and large-sized ear tips are also
included in the package. Locate the left (L)
and right (R) markings on the headphones.
With your selected ear tips on the head­phones, gently insert the headphones into
your ears so that the tips rest comfortably in
the concha, the bowl of the ear just outside
the ear canal. The headphones should be
pushed into the ear far enough to establish a
secure fit but not so far that they become
uncomfortable. Do not attempt to wear the
headphones without the ear tips.

Correct Incorrect

Unlike some products that need to be
pushed into the ear canal to perform as
intended, Bose in-ear headphones are
designed to rest comfortably in the bowl of
the ear. Because of this, they may feel differ­ent at first from what listeners are accus­tomed to. The soft silicone ear tip barely
contacts the opening to the ear conal; it pro­vides just enough contact to secure the
headphones in place comfortably without
forming a tight, isolating seal.

Choosing the correct size ear tip
to ensure proper fit

Some users may find that the small or large
sized tips provide a more appropriate fit. It is
also possible that some users may prefer
different sizes of ear tips for each ear.

Larger sizes may be preferable if users plan
to use them during certain activities such as
exercise. One size larger ear tip may offer a
little more contact with the ear, enhancing
stability.

We encourage each user to experiment with
the different ear-tip sizes until finding the
combination that works best for them.

Changing ear tips

1. Gently remove the
existing ear tip by
peeling up from its
large rounded side.

2. Align the triangle on
the replacement ear
tip with the triangle
on the headphone.

3. Press the ear tip
securely into place
until you feel it latch.
The large rounded
side of the ear tip
should completely
cover the triangle on
the headphone.

Connecting to an audio device

You can connect the headphones to any
device that has a 3.5 mm stereo plug.

1. Turn down the volume of the audio device.

2. Plug the headphones into the audio
output jack on the device.

3. Put on the headphones.

4. Slowly tur n up the volume on the device.

Using the “enhancement” features
of audio devices

Many portable audio devices include features
or settings which electronically alter t he audio
signal sent to the headphones. These may
include “bass boost” or other EQ settings.
Other features may serve to limit volume out
such as “sound check” or “volume limit.”
Finally, other features add spatialization
effects such as “Surround”, “SMS”, “WOW”,
or “3D.”

The Bose® in-ear headphones were designed
to deliver high quality, balanced sound and
deep, low notes without the need for any arti­ficial enhancement. Therefore, when using
the headphones we recommend that you first
turn off all the enhancemen t features before
making any personal adjustments to the
audio settings.
