Important
Safety
Information
1)
If
you
hear
ringing
or
experience
pain
or
discomfort
in
your
ears
during
or
after
using
any
in-ear
audio
product,
that
is
a
sign
you
are
listening
too
loud.
When
your
ears
are
exposed
to
high
volumes
(in
excess
of
85dB)
for
over
an
hour,
you
may
be
permanently
damaging
your
hearing.
2)
Turn
down
your
listening
device's
volume
to
zero
before
you
insert
the
Klipsch
headphones
and
turn
on
the
device
.
Once
you
have
the
headphones
in,
gradually
increase
the
volume
to
a
comfortable,
moderate
volume.
3)
Clean
your
headphones
with
an
antiseptic
wipe
frequently
to
avoid
wax
buildup.
This
improves
the
acoustic
quality
of
your
headphones.
4)
NEVER
operate
a
motor
vehicle
while
listening
to
or
wearing
your
headphones
.
Not
only
dangerous,
it
is
illegal
in
many
places.
5)
NEVER
operate
heavy
machinery
while
listening
to
or
wearing
your
headphones.
6)
We
don't
recommend
you
use
the
headphones
while
riding
a
bicycle,
running,
or
walking
in
heavy
traffic
areas.
If
you
do,
do
not
fully
insert
the
headphones
into
your
ear
and
listen
at
a
lower
volume
so
you
can
hear
ambient
noise.
Listen
Responsibly
The
Occupational
Safety
Health
Administration
(OSHA)
has
issued
headphone
usage
recommendations
for
maximum
daily
exposure
and
sound
pressure
levels
(measured
in
decibels
(dB)).
A
decibel
is
a
unit
of
measure
of
sound,
and
decibels
increase
exponentially
as
sound
gets
louder.
For
example,
conversational
speech
is
typically
around
60dB,
and
a
rock
concert
in
a
stadium
is
often
about
11
OdB.

Using t he Klipsch Headphones
Out of the box, the Klipsch headphones are fitted with the
medium-sized gels . You can make adjustments later if the
fit isn't perfect.
Ensure that the indicator marks in the ear gel and n ozzle
li ne up.
Importan t: Securely press the ear gel onto the
headphone nozzle. The ear gel locks into pl ace ove r the
nozzle and should seat firmly against the nozzle's edge .
The left headphone is inscribed with an "L" and the right
headphone is inscribed with an "R ".
Now slide the ova l gel into the ear to create a seal in your
ear canal. You should hear very muff l ed ambient noise
and your own vo i ce should sound louder to you. A good
seal ensu r es good bass response.
If you do not feel that the Klipsch headphones are fi tting
comfortably inside your ear canals at this point, sk ip
ahead to the next section "Selecting the Right Contour
Ear Gels."
Locate the 3. 5mm stereo plug at the end of the a ud io
cord and insert it in to your audio device .Wi th the volume
turned low, start pl aying music on your player and slowly
increase the volume to a comfor t ab le setting.
Selecting the Right Contour Ear Gels
Headphone
Noz zl e's
E dge
Your new Klipsch Headphone package contains five sets of our patent-pending
Contour ear ge ls. Our research has indicated that almost 60% of users
will prefer the si ngle-flange, medium-sized gel, so that set is affixed to the
headphones in the box. There are thr ee si zes of si ngle flange ea r ge ls (small,
medium , and large) and two sizes of double fl ange ear gels (small and large ).
Beyond fitting t he headphone in your ear, the ear gel channe ls sound and fo r ms
a seal in your ear canal th at allows the headphone to delive ra full range of
audio frequencies. The fla n ges affect not only fita nd comfort , but sound quality
as well.
Single Flange Ear Gel s o!Q)'
The single flange ear gels are general purpose ge l s. Most people \
will probably pr efer these for everyday use. For examp l e, if you
Singl e Flange
4

are going to ride a bicycle you should choose a single flange ear gel and wear
it very loose in the ear so that you do not block ambient noise, such as other
cyclists, cars, or other hazards.
Double Flange Ear Gels
The double flange ear gels can assist t hose with harder to fit
ears because of their shape. They can also offer a tighter seal
(more isolation) for even better acoustic quality, and are more
secure in the ear, and may be better suited to physical activity
(other than the kind that occurs in traffic). For example, you
might choose double flange ear gels if you are a passenge r Double Flange
on an airplane and want to block out as much ambient noise
as possible.
Changing the Contour Ear Gels
Start by removing the medium-sized gels currently on your headphones. With
your thumb and index finge r, squeeze the ear gel and pu ll it off the ear nozzle
with a slight twisting action. Select your ear gel. There is an indicator line on the
fitting ins ide the gel which lines up with an indicato r line on the headphone's ear
nozzle. Press the ear gel onto the headphone nozzle. The gel locks into place
over the nozzle, but still rotates so you can further customize the fit to your ears.
Using the steps in the last section, take them for a test listen. Repeat the whole
process until you find the gels that fit best.
Care and Cleaning
The ear gels and nozzle must be kept clean to prevent wax buildup which will
have an adverse effect on your l isten ing experience. Simply clean the surface of
the ear gels with an ~lcohol wipe and use the included cleaning tool to remove
wax from the ear gels and nozzle.
