Changing ear tips
Select the type and size of eartip that provides you with the best
comfort and fit.
Importance of Proper Fit
When you wear the headset properly, it provides the comfort
and clarity you expect from Bose®.
1. Gently peel the edges of the attached tip away from the
earpiece, using care not to tear the tip.
CAUTION: To prevent damage, do not pull on the
StayHear™ tip wing.
Fitting the headphones to your ear
The headphone earpiece has a soft StayHear™ tip attached,
allowing it to rest comfortably in the bowl of your ear. The wing
part of the tip fits just under your ear ridge.
2. Position the opening of the new tip over the nozzle and the
small slot over the nozzle hook.
Note: Each tip is marked with a either an L or an R to indicate
which earpiece it is for. Be sure to attach the left StayHear™ tip to
the left earpiece and the right StayHear™ tip to the right earpiece.
Note: Each tip is marked with a either an L or an R
to indicate which earpiece it is for. Be sure to attach
the left StayHear™ tip to the left earpiece and the
right StayHear™ tip to the right earpiece.
To determine if the tip is the right size:
3. Ease the base of the tip down around the base of the
earpiece until the tip feels secured.
1. Insert the earpiece into the canal just enough
for the headphone to rest lightly against your ear.
2. Tilt the headphone back and press the tip wing under the ear
ridge until it is secure.
StayHear™ tips
The tips should fit comfortably yet securely in the bowl of the
ear.
