Our headphones will allow you to hear more details at lower volume levels than ever before. Use Responsibly Do not use headphones when it’s unsafe to do so – while operating a vehicle, crossing streets, or during any activity or in an environment where your full attention to your surroundings is required. It is dangerous to drive while wearing headphones, and in many places illegal because it decreases your chances of hearing life-saving sounds outside of your vehicle, such as another car’s horn and emergency vehicle sirens. Learn how to establish a safe listening level and review other important safety guidelines from the Consumer Electronics Association at www.ce.org and the Deafness Research Foundation at www.drf.org.6 Eartips and Maintenance Eartip Selection The tips on the ends of urBeats

headphones make the difference between good sound and great sound. With the right t, you’ll receive better isolation from unwanted outside noise, increased bass response, better tonal balance and the headphones will stay in your ears better. Of course, the right t will also feel more comfortable. Because everyone’s ears are unique, Beats

supplies several sizes and designs of eartips. Finding the perfect t with the correct tip is a matter of experimentation. Try out all the eartips included with your urBeats

headphones to nd the best t for the size and shape of your ear canal. We recommend that you try the smallest tip rst and work upwards in size until you nd a comfortable t which has a good seal and also stays in your ears without falling out. Also try different style tips to see which works best for you. UK English7 Eartip Fit Testing A good way to gauge whether or not the eartip is sealing properly in your ear canal is by snapping your ngers right next to your ear. If the seal is correct, your ear will not feel “plugged”, yet the snapping of your ngers will sound dull and distant. If you hear your nger snaps distinctly, the seal is probably not adequate. If the sound of your nger snapping is dull and distant, but your ear feels plugged up, like you’re on an airplane preparing to land, then you’ve over-inserted the eartip. UK English8 UK English Proper Insertion and Removal of Eartips

1. You may wish to lightly moisten your eartips for easier insertion.

2. Using your right hand, grasp the right headphone.

3. With your left hand, pull up and back on your right ear to straighten your

4. Carefully insert your right headphone,

rubber eartip rst, so that it seals completely and comfortably in your ear. DO NOT insert the eartip so deeply that your ear canal feels completely “plugged”.

5. Repeat this procedure for your left ear.

6. When you’ve nished your listening

session, remove your in-ear headphones slowly with a twisting motion to gradually break the seal.9 UK English Eartip Cleaning Keeping urBeats
