Panther uses bone conduction microphone (BCM) technology for voice transmissions through the
system. This means that contact between the ear cartlage toward the front of the ear (called the
tragus) and the BCM should be maximized to ensure the clearest transmission. To assist with this,
three sizes of SureFitTM Contact Rings that compress are provided to assist contact with the tragus
(Fig 1). Size for the typical user is small. If clear audio is not achieved with the small size, replace
with medium or large by removing the ring from the earbud and simply snapping another size into the
slotted fitment. (Fig 1a)

When properly fit, Panther ear bud should be positioned in the outer ear horizontally such that the
center axis of the earbud is parallel with the ground. Cable should be routed around the ear and back
behind the head. (Fig. 2)

Ensure the microphone blister is in contact with the ear’s tragus (Fig 3).
