The silicone tips are primarily for listening to media or phone calls. You may need to experiment with each size ear tip to and the most comfortable and secure fit.
2. Select the proper size ear tip to at your ear canal. Use the largest size that fits comfortably for most protection. The ear tip should form a complete seal blocking out sound. This is critical to achieving the highest NRR rating and protecting your hearing.
3. Grip the unit by the ear hooks in both hands. With the controls behind the head, gently extend the cables until the ear hooks are over the ears. Place the tips into the ear with a gentle rocking motion until the tips are fully inserted into the canal.
