Wearing the headset
After removing the headset from the case and unfolding the earcups, see page 7. 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 signal 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 spatialization 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 headset we recommend that you first turn off all the enhancement features
before making any personal 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.
