POSITIONING THE BOOM
If you have the Voice Tube version of the product, pull out,
push-in, rotate, or swivel the Voice Boom into a position

Attach the Clothing Clip at about chest level. The clip keeps
the headset properly seated and free of the weight of the
Headset Cable . This is particularly important in the Ear
Hook configuration.

hold and move away from the phone without removing the
headset.
