Text for video on how to wear the headset
This page uses text to describe the names and shapes of the LinkBuds parts and the contents of the video on how to wear your LinkBuds.
Part name and shape descriptions
With the side of the charging case with the lid open button facing you, open the charging case by holding down the lid open button as you open the top lid away from you.
The headset unit in the right side of the charging case is for the right ear, and the unit in the left side is for the left ear.
Each headset unit consists of a housing part that protrudes outward like a dome and a donut-shaped driver unit part.
When taking out a headset unit, use your fingers to grasp the unit by the housing part.
The housing part is fitted with a ring made of silicone material, and there is a protruding semicircular part on this ring.
This ring is called a fitting supporter.
The left and right units of the headset can also be told apart by touch.
On the left unit, there is a very small tactile dot near the base of the semicircular part of the fitting supporter.

The title of the video is
“LinkBuds Wearing the headset Replacing the fitting supporters”.
The information in the video is explained with only illustrations.
This text will be explained in the same order as the video.
The following is an explanation of how to wear the headset.
Use your fingers to grasp the housing part of a headset unit to pick it up.
Align the doughnut-shaped driver unit part with the opening of your ear canal and insert the headset unit into your ear.
While inserting the unit, make sure the semicircular part of the fitting supporter is pointed upward.
Push the semicircular part into your ear to finish wearing the headset unit.
If the semicircular part is hooked into your ear and the headset unit does not fall off your ear even when you shake your head, it has been worn properly.
If the headset unit does not feel fitted, such as if the semicircular part cannot be inserted into your ear or the fit of the semicircular part is so loose that the headset unit feels like it is falling off your ear, stop using the headset and replace the fitting supporter with one of an appropriate size.
The size that fits your ear may be different for the left and right ear.
To remove the headset unit, use your fingers to grasp the housing part and pull the unit off your ear.
The following is an explanation of the fitting supporters.
The size of the fitting supporter varies with the size of the semicircular part.
M-sized fitting supporters come attached to the headset at the time of purchase.
The fitting supporters in other sizes can be found inside the small, rectangular box.
The fitting supporters are common for both left and right sides.
Touch the semicircular parts to feel the difference between the sizes.
The following is an explanation on how to replace the fitting supporters.
To remove the fitting supporter from the headset unit, grasp the semicircular part and pull it down toward the protruding part of the housing.
After the fitting supporter is removed, look for a thin protrusion located where the fitting supporter was attached.
At the bottom of the semicircular part of the fitting supporter, there is an opening into which the thin protrusion on the housing can be inserted.
When attaching a fitting supporter, pass the protrusion on the housing through this opening to fix the fitting supporter in place.
Ensure the fitting supporter is not attached in a slightly different position.
If the fitting supporter is attached incorrectly, the headset does not fit in the charging case, and it cannot charge or pair with other devices.
Make sure the thin protrusion is properly inserted through the opening.
After replacing the fitting supporter, lightly tug on the semicircular part and check that it does not budge.
Finally, the Sony logo appears, and the video ends.
