Wearing the headphones

After removing the headphones from the case and unfolding them (see page 5.) put on

the headphones using the markings on the headband that identify the left (L) and right (R)

earcups.

Using the “enhancement” features of audio devices

Many portable audio devices include features or settings which electronically alter the

audio signal sent to the headphones. These may include “bass boost” or other EQ set-

tings. Other features may serve to limit volume out such as “sound check” or “volume

limit.” Finally, other features add spatialization effects such as “Surround”, “SMS”,

“WOW”, or “3D.”

The Bose®OE audio headphones were designed to deliver high quality, balanced sound

and deep, low notes without the need for any artificial enhancement. Therefore, when

using the headphones we recommend that you first turn off all the enhancement fea-

tures before making any personal adjustments to the audio settings.

Cleaning the headphones

Earcup

port

Should cleaning be necessary, simply wipe the outside

surfaces with a damp cloth. Be sure the earcup ports are

kept clear and that no moisture is allowed to get inside

the earcup.

Troubleshooting

If you experience any trouble using your headphones, try the following troubleshooting

instructions. If you still need help, call for assistance. See the contact information on the

inside back cover.

Problem What to do

No audio Make sure that the headphone plug is securely connected to

the headphone jack (not the line out jack) of the audio device.

Intermittent audio Make sure each cord connection is securely attached.

Excessive bass Turn off any bass boost or other audio enhancement features

on the audio source.

Distorted bass Make sure that the earcup ports are not blocked in any way. If

they are dirty, gently wipe away any debris. Also check to see

that the cushions are completely snapped onto the earcups.

Misshaped

cushions The cushions may appear deformed when removed from the

case or the packaging. However, after a few minutes the

cushions should regain their natural shape.
