Proper Insertion
Important: Sound quality, full bass
response and noise isolation all depend
on a good eartip seal in the ear canal.
See a video demonstration at
www.etymotic.com.
•
Carefully insert the earphone
while pulling up and out on the back of the ear.
•
Twist the earphone up into the ear canal while inserting,
until outside noise is blocked out.
•
3-flange 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.
Removal
Remove earphones
slowly with a twisting motion to gradually
break the seal. Do not pull on the cable to remove the earphones.
