Customise your headset

Customise the headset by changing the ear tip, wearing it on the right or left

and optimising the position of the microphone

Change the ear tip

1 The headset comes with a pre-installed ear tip. To install a different ear tip see the following:

Remove the pre-installed ear tip by pushing in and turning the ear tip CLOCKwise, then pull
firmly.

2 Choose the size and style of ear tip that fits most comfortably. Align ear tip tabs with notches

in headset. Push in firmly and twist COUNTER clockwise.

NOTE When installing a gel tip ensure the raised part of the ear tip is pointed toward the curved

section of the headset as shown.

Position your headset

When you wear the headset, the microphone should rest as close to your cheek as possible
without touching. The microphone can be adjusted inward by the pivoting earpiece to optimize
the position of the headset.

1 Slide the headset over and behind your ear, then press gently toward your ear.
