INSERTING THE EARPHONES

the tightness of the seal between the earphone and your ear, or try one of the
other sleeve options.

Warning:

Do not push the earphone sleeve beyond the ear canal opening.

CHOOSING AN EARPHONE SLEEVE

Your earphones come with a selection of sleeves. Make sure the sleeve you
use is easy to insert into your ear, fits comfortably, and is easy to remove from
your ear.

Flex Sleeves

In small, medium, and large sizes. Made from translucent
PVC.

Soft Flex Sleeves

In small, medium, and large sizes. Made from pliable rubber.

Foam Sleeves

When using the foam sleeves, compress the sleeve between
your fingers before inserting it into the ear canal. Hold the
earphone in place for about ten seconds while the foam
expands and creates a tight seal.

WAX GUARD

You should place wax guards on the nozzle of your E2g earphones before using
them. These protective rings are found on an adhesive strip in the fit kit that
comes with your earphones.
To place a wax guard on one of your E2g earphones:

Remove the sleeve from the earphone nozzle.

1.

2.

If there is a dirty wax guard on the earphone, peel it off.
Clean the tip of the E2g nozzle with an antiseptic or alcohol wipe.

3.
Make sure that the tip of the nozzle is dry, then remove a wax guard from the

4.
supplied strip and place it on the tip of the nozzle, adhesive side down.
Replace the sleeve on the earphone.

IMPORTANT: Do not place wax guards on sleeves! Wax guards are intended for use on

Use a slow twisting motion to remove the earphones. Never pull
on the earphone cord.

Warning: If a sleeve becomes lodged in your ear, seek skilled
medical assistance to remove the sleeve. Damage to the ear

may be caused by non-professionals attempting to remove the
sleeve.

Prior to inserting the earphone, always recheck the sleeve to
make sure it is firmly attached to the nozzle.

Turn up the volume control only far enough to hear properly.

Ringing in the ears may indicate that the volume level is too high.
Try lowering the volume.

If you connect these earphones to an airplane’s sound system,
listen at low levels so that loud messages from the pilot do not
cause discomfort.

Have your ears checked by an audiologist on a regular basis. If
you experience wax buildup, discontinue use until an audiologist
has examined your ears.

Stop using the earphones if they are causing great discomfort or
infection.
