1.1 Fitting Your Headset
Wearing your headset properly is paramount to achieving both comfort and noise
attenuation. First slightly loosen the hand adjustable knobs on the headband. The
headset should be placed on your head and slowly pulled down so that each ear cup is
properly positioned over each ear for maximum noise attenuation. Tighten the knurled
knobs when the headset feels correct.
It should apply slight pressure on your head without being snug. You may need to make
your final adjustments in the high noise environment of the cockpit.

1101 is fitted with an individual volume control.

2.3 Taking Care of Your Headset
Treat your headset like you would treat your stereo and computer at home. To insure
the full life of your headset. Keep it clean and free of dirt and you will extend the
headset¶s life giving you many years of extra flying plea
Clean your headsets with non-alcohol wipes or a soft slightly cloth dampened with
water and a mild soap. Never use alcohol . P lastic parts dry out or fray when exposed to
alcohol based products. Headband, ear cups, ear seals and cords can be lightly
cleaned but one should be careful around the microphone and speakers on the
headset.
2.4 Ear Cushions
Ear seals also need periodic replacing. Depending on how much you use your headset,
temperat ure (extreme heat or cold) also influences the life span of your ear seals. We
have several types of ear seals on our headsets. Generally, PVC, foam and silicone gel
style ear seals can be wiped off with mild soap and water.
Do not submerge the ear
seals in water. Three types of our ear seals have vent holes and water would enter the
ear seal¶s vent holes ruining the ear seal.
