15CautionConsult an audiologist or physician if you have excessive earwax,difficulty inserting the eartips,or discomfort after prolonged use.The etyBLU dual-mode headset excludes mostexternal sounds.Always use extreme caution while using anyheadset when operating a motorized vehicle.Do not use the headset at excessively loud levels.Research confirms that earphones that seal the ear canal allow listenersto listen at safer levels.Noise-induced hearing loss is a functionof exposure time,the average sound level and the peak of veryloud sounds.A sealed eartip and lower listening levels allow forlonger periods of safe listening time.14Earpiece FilterThe earpiece in the etyBLU headset has a special filter thatsmoothes the frequency response and prevents earwax fromentering the earphone.The filter is located at the end of the earphone and is visible when the eartip is removed.Change the filter if loudness decreases or the sound qualitydeclines. Note: Filters are not reusable.Filter RemovalFilter Replacement1. Removeeartip. 2.Insert tool intothe filter.3. Removefilter.1.Insertanewfilter and press gently against a hard surface to secure it in place.2. Re-attach eartip.
