CHANGING THE WHEEL ORIENTATION
When changing volume, the default configuration of the headset is for
it to be worn on the right ear. This means that clicking up on the Wheel
towards the small ‘+’ sign on the headset increases the volume one step
at a time, while clicking down towards the ‘-’ sign on the headset
decreases the volume one step at a time.
If you wear the headset on your left ear, this headset allows you to
change the Wheel orientation from right to left ear, so that pressing the
Wheel up still increases the volume, and pressing down decreases the
volume.

by pressing and holding the Control button while pressing in and holding
the Wheel for 4 seconds. Once you see 3 blue flashes, the headset is
powered on and you may release the buttons.

it is turned off. In order to regularly use the headset in left ear configuration,
always turn on the headset using the Control + Wheel procedure above.
NOTE: If you choose to wear the headset on your left ear but do not
