outside of the headband.
(B:3) Adjust the height of the cups by sliding them up or down while holding the head-
band in place.
(B:4) The headband should be positioned across the top of your head.
2:2 Neckband (Fig. C)
(C:1) Place the cups in position over the ears.

The bone conduction microphone (A:13) should be positioned between your jaw bone and 
chin bone for best performance.
3. USAGE/FUNCTIONS
3:1 Inserting batteries
Remove the battery compartment lids and insert the batteries (2xAAA). The battery polarity 
must correspond to the marking in the battery compartment. The lids must be pressed all 
the way down to ensure good seal. Low battery level is indicated by a ghost voice message 
“low battery”, repeatedly.
3:2 Switching the headset on and off
Press and hold the [+] or [-] button for two seconds to switch the headset on or off. The 
current setting is always saved when the headset is switched off, except when in ear-plug 
mode. The headset is automatically powered off after two hours of inactivity. This is indi-
cated by a ghost voice message during the last minute before the headset switches off.
