Changing ear tips
Adjusting for comfort and stability
There are several ways you can adjust your headphones to
provide additional comfort and stability. Using the adjustment
slider and clothing clip you can customize how you wear your
headphones.
Select the type and size of eartip that provides you with the best
comfort and fit.
1. Gently peel the edges of the attached tip away from the
earpiece, using care not to tear the tip.
CAUTION: To prevent damage, do not pull on the
StayHear™ tip wing.
Using the adjustment slider
Move the adjustment slider up or down to reduce
or increase the amount of loose cord between the
left and right earpiece.
2. Position the opening of the new tip over the nozzle and the
small slot over the nozzle hook.
Note: Each tip is marked with either an L or an R to
indicate which earpiece it is for. Be sure to attach the
left StayHear™ tip to the left earpiece and the right
StayHear™ tip to the right earpiece.
3. Ease the base of the tip down around the base
of the earpiece until the tip feels secured.

Using the clothing clip
Use the clothing clip to fasten the cable to
your clothing, for convenience, stability, and
to help manage the cable. This can be helpful
during high-movement activities or when
using the headphones in a single earpiece
configuration.
