HOW TO WEAR
PUT ON THE EARBUDS
-
Slide the ear hook behind your ear and rotate it back until it feels stable and comfortable. The earbud should rest gently over the top of your ear.
If you feel any discomfort, slightly rotate the earbud forward.
NOTE : Make sure you wear the correct earbud on the correct ear. Look for the L (left) and R (right) markings on the inside surface of each earbud. -

earbud doesn’t fall off when you move around, it’s a proper fit.
