is optional. Push the earloop through the earloop holder and adjust for a
secure fit.

cancellation of the talker's voice compared to the internal mic.

Twist the earpiece while inserting until outside noise is blocked out.

Position the earpiece for best fit and comfort.
-
Flanged eartip: Moistening eases insertion.

Foam eartip: Roll down or compress foam eartip before inserting. Hold the
eartip in place for about 5 seconds while the foam expands to create a tight
seal in the ear canal.
