Getting the Best Sound
Getting the best sound with your Apple In-Ear Headphones with Remote and Mic
requires using the eartips that provide the best seal. Try all three sizes (S, M, L) in
each ear and choose the ones that fit snugly and comfortably in your ear canal,
like a pair of earplugs. When the fit is right, most outside noises are blocked and
music has a rich bass sound.
Cleaning or Replacing the Mesh Caps
The mesh caps protect the headphone speakers from damage. If the mesh caps
become clogged with earwax or the sound becomes muffled, clean or replace
them (an extra pair is included). To clean the mesh caps, first remove the silicone
eartips, then unscrew the mesh caps from the headphones. Soak the mesh caps in
very hot tap water with a drop of dish soap for 30 minutes. When the wire mesh is
completely unclogged, rinse with cool water and dry thoroughly before screwing
them securely back onto the headphones and replacing the silicone eartips.
WARNING: Do not use the headphones without the silicone eartips.
Before attaching eartips, make sure the mesh caps are securely attached.
Important Safety Information
Avoid Hearing Loss
WARNING: Permanent hearing loss may occur if headphones are used at high
volume. You can adapt over time to a higher volume of sound, which may
sound normal but can be damaging to your hearing. Set the volume to a safe
level before that happens. If you experience ringing in your ears or speech
sounds muffled, reduce the volume or discontinue use of your headphones and
have your hearing checked. The louder the volume, the less time is required
before your hearing could be affected. Hearing experts suggest that to protect
your hearing:
Limit the amount of time you use headphones at high volume.
Â
Avoid turning up the volume to block out noisy surroundings.
Â
Turn the volume down if you can’t hear people speaking near you.
