Powering On/Off (cont.)
Changing Volume
It is suggested that each device be removed from your ear before disengaging battery door to turn power off. The device’s memory is configured to reset each time the battery is disconnected.
Each time the device is turned off the memory resets to the default setting of Program #1 and mid-range volume. Once you’ve become familiar with the settings that work best for you, take note of what program channel and volume settings you prefer and reset when you wear the product the next time. To keep the product in the best possible condition, as well as to avoid moisture problems from occurring, it is best to always open each battery door and place the product back within its case when not in use. This shuts each unit off while allowing any accumulated moisture to evaporate.

Though WildEar life is very long, if the door is left closed it will lead to shortened battery life even when not in use.

Each device has (2) momentary push buttons.
Pressing the Upper button in short, momentary entries increases Volume-Up. Pressing the Lower button in short, momentary entries decreases Volume-Down. Each entry will have an audio tone indicating a volume change. When you’ve repeated this several times, a redundant tone will indicate you’ve reached the max or min volume level where volume will no longer increase or decrease.

How to Place WildEar™ Properly Into Your Ear
Cleaning the Sound Port
Every WildEarTM is unique in shape, though all have common features. While holding the top and bottom of the device between your thumb and index finger, insert the canal portion gently into your ear canal and rotate counter clockwise as you install; the device should gently slide into place within your ear and secure firmly.
It’s very important that each device fits properly to provide maximum protection and to avoid unwanted oscillation or squeali
ng. You will feel a noticeable and firm fit when the
device properly sits within your ear.
The human ear has a natural defense mechanism to create more ear wax when anything is placed within it for a period of time. Hence each device will, over time, accumulate ear wax within the sound port at the end of the canal, which will impact the sound quality if not cleaned. Routine sound port cleaning will be necessary when the sound quality becomes weak/ distorted or when visible wax blockage is evident within the end of the sound tube.
When necessary, gently
clean the sound port with the wax tool provided. Using the small metal loop, gently place within the sound port and scoop out visible wax accumulation until the port is clean and free of all wax.
Note: Only insert the metal loop in the very end of the sound tube. Inserting tool too deep may cause damage to the speaker.

Removal and Placement of Vent Plug
The Vent plug is a flexible, tapered silicone plug. For all gun hunting, firmly insert the plug into the vent channel as shown, placing it securely. Press it in tightly to secure it and the tapered fit will tighten up as you push into the vent channel. When preparing for any non-gun-based hunting simply grab the vent plug firmly and pull outward, storing the plug within the carrying case for later use.
Important note: It’s an absolute must to make sure vent plug is properly in place and secured before any gun-based shooting applications. If vent plug is not properly installed, a portion of the high-pressure sound level from a gun discharge can pass through the channel to your eardrum, offering little or no hearing prot
ection.
Caring For Your Product
TM
WildEar of quality and reliability on the market today. Yet even so, they must be cared for properly to assure they stay in top condition. Doing so will assure each device works at peak performance for all your hunting and sporting events. When not in use, keep the battery door open and place within your customized wooden storage box. This assures any accumulated moisture evaporates when not in use. Wipe units with a clean, dry cloth to remove accumulated wax buildup, which is common.
Though we have taken every measure to assure they work in the toughest environments, direct submersion in water is their worst ene provided and keep devices out of direct rainfall or under the appropriate head gear suitable for your sporting activity.
