How to install the earbuds correctly

(see fig. )
If the earbuds do not fit your ears correctly, low-bass sound may not
be heard. To enjoy better sound quality, change the earbuds to
another size or type, or adjust the earbuds position to sit on your ears
comfortably and fit your ears snugly. If the earbuds do not fit your
ears, try another size or type. Confirm the size of the earbuds by
R
checking the color inside (see fig. - for hybrid silicone rubber
earbuds and - for noise isolation earbuds).
When you change the earbuds, install them firmly on the headphones
to prevent the earbud from detaching and remaining in your ear.

Notes
 Prolonged use of the noise isolation earbuds may strain your ears
due to their snug fit. If you have experience discomfort or pain in
your ears, discontinue use.
 The pressure-relieving urethane cushion is extremely soft.
Therefore, do not pinch or pull the urethane cushion. If the
urethane cushion is broken or detached from the earbuds, it will
not take its correct position and the earbuds will lose their noise
isolation function.
 The pressure-relieving urethane cushion may deteriorate due to
long-term storage or use. If the pressure-relieving power is lost and
the urethane cushion becomes hard, the earbuds may lose their
noise isolation function.
 Do not wash the noise isolation earbuds. Keep them dry, and avoid
accumulation of water in the pressure-relieving urethane-cushions.
Not doing so may cause early deterioration.
To detach an earbud (see fig. –)
While holding the headphone, twist the parts inside of the earbud and
pull the earbud off.
Tip
If the earbud slips and cannot be detached, wrap it in a dry soft cloth.
To attach an earbud (see fig. –)
Push the parts inside of the earbud into the headphone until the
projecting part of the headphone is fully covered.
How to attach the clip to the cord
(see fig. )
1
Hold the clip closed, and pull up the lever on the clip just a
little.
2
Put the cord into the groove under the lever.
Notes
 If you pull up the lever on the clip without holding the clip closed,
or holding the clip closed but opening the lever too much, you
cannot put the cord into the groove under the lever.
 Do not catch the cord on the projection of the clip or do not wedge
it into the groove. It may damage the wires of the cord.
 Do not move the clip position with the cord attached. It may
damage the wires of the cord.

Precautions
 Please keep your headphones clean at all times especially inside the
rubber earbud. (see fig. )
If any dust or ear wax is inside the earbud, you may experience
some listening difficulties.
 Listening with headphones at high volume may affect your hearing.
For traffic safety, do not use while driving or cycling.
 Handle the driver units carefully.
 Do not put weight or pressure on the headphones as it may cause
the headphones to deform during long storage.
 The earbuds may deteriorate due to long-term storage or use.
 Install the earbuds firmly onto the headphones. If an earbud
accidentally detaches and is left in your ear, it may cause injury.
 Store the earbuds where children cannot reach in order to prevent
from accidental ingestion or choking.
 Do not leave the stereo headphones in a location subject to direct
sunlight, heat or moisture.
Note on static electricity
In particularly dry air conditions, mild tingling may be felt on your
ears. This is a result of static electricity accumulated in the body, and
not a malfunction of the headphones.
The effect can be minimized by wearing clothes made from natural
materials.

earbuds.
EP-EX10A offers 4 types of the earbuds: SS, S, M and L.
