are going to ride a bicycle you should choose a single flange ear gel and wear
it very loose in the ear so that you do not block ambient noise, such as other
cyclists, cars, or other hazards.
Double Flange Ear Gels
The double flange ear gels can assist those with harder to fit
ears because of their shape. They can also offer a tighter seal
(more isolation) for even better acoustic quality, and are more
secure in the ear, and may be better suited to physical activity
(other than the kind that occurs in traffic). For example, you
might choose double flange ear gels if you are a passenger
on an airplane and want to block out as much ambient noise
as possible.
Changing the Contour Ear Gels
Start by removing the medium-sized gels currently on your headphones. With
your thumb and index finger, squeeze the ear gel and pull it off the ear nozzle
with a slight twisting action. Select your ear gel. There is an indicator line on the
fitting inside the gel which lines up with an indicator line on the headphone's ear
nozzle. Press the ear gel onto the headphone nozzle. The gel locks into place
over the nozzle, but still rotates so you can further customize the fit to your ears.
Using the steps in the last section, take them for a test listen. Repeat the whole
process until you find the gels that fit best.
Care and Cleaning
The ear gels and nozzle must be kept clean to prevent wax buildup which will
have an adverse effect on your listening experience. Simply clean the surface of
the ear gels with an alcohol wipe and use the included cleaning tool to remove
wax from the ear gels and nozzle.
