Note

  • The headset cannot fully perform the noise canceling function unless the supplied earbud tips are used.
  • If the headset is not being worn properly in your ears, the noise canceling function may not work correctly. Twist the headset to put it into your ears properly.
  • Do not cover the microphone part on the left or right headset unit with your hand, etc. The effect of the noise canceling function or Ambient Sound Mode may not work properly or a beeping sound (feedback) may occur. If any of this is the case, remove your hand, etc. from the left or right microphone part.
