tial or no sound, or the microphone is not picking-
up sound, you may be using the wrong adapter.

Wearing the headset
After removing the headset from the case and
unfolding the earcups (see page 4), put on the
headset using the markings on the headband
that identify the left (L) and right (R) earcups.
Using the “enhancement”
features of audio devices
Many portable audio devices include features or
settings which electronically alter the audio sig-
nal sent to the headset. These may include “bass
boost” or other EQ settings. Other features may
serve to limit volume out such as “sound check”
or “volume limit.” Finally, other features add spa-
tialization effects such as “Surround”, “SMS”,
“WOW”, or “3D.”
The Bose®mobile on-ear headset was designed
to deliver high quality, balanced sound and deep,
low notes without the need for any artificial
enhancement. Therefore, when using the head-
set we recommend that you first turn off all the
enhancement features before making any per-
sonal adjustments to the audio settings.
Cleaning the headset
Should cleaning be
necessary, simply
wipe the outside
surfaces with a
damp cloth. Be sure
the earcup ports are
kept clear and that
no moisture is
allowed to get inside the earcup or microphone
opening.
Reattaching earcup
cushions
If an earcup cushion
becomes detached from the
earcup:
1. Align the two holes on the
back of the cushion with
the two posts on the
earcup.
2. Push the cushion onto the earcup.
3. Press in around the outside edge of the
cushion to snap it in place.
Make sure the cushion is flush all the way around
and that there are no gaps between the cushion
and the earcup.
