Changing Sleeves
• Twist and pull to remove the
sleeve from the nozzle.
• Slide on a new sleeve so that it
completely covers the barb and
the nozzle.
Caution: If the barb or any of the nozzle is exposed, the sleeve is not
properly installed. Replace sleeves if they do not tightly grip the nozzle.
To ensure proper fit and performance, use only sleeves supplied by
Shure (unless using custom molded sleeves).
Removing the Earphones
Grasp the body of earphone and gently twist to remove.
Note: Do not pull on cable to remove earphone.
Maintenance and Cleaning
Careful maintenance ensures a tight seal between the sleeve
and nozzle, improving sound quality and product safety.
• Keep the earphones and sleeves as clean and dry as possible.
• To clean sleeves, remove them from earphones, gently rinse in
warm water and air dry. Foam sleeves require a longer drying
time. Inspect for damage and replace if necessary. Ear sleeves
must be completely dry before reusing.
• Wipe the earphones and sleeves with mild antiseptic to avoid
infections. Do not use alcohol-based disinfectants.
• Do not expose earphones to extreme temperatures.
• Replace sleeves if they do not fit properly.
• Do not attempt to modify this product. Doing so will void the
warranty and could result in personal injury and/or product
failure.
Cleaning the Earphone Nozzle
If you notice a change in sound quality, remove the sleeve and
check the nozzle of your earphone. If nozzle is blocked, clear
obstruction by using wire loop end of cleaning tool.
If no obstruction is found or if sound quality does not improve,
replace the sleeve with a new sleeve.
Cleaning Tool
Caution: When cleaning, do not force any object through the earphone
nozzle! This will damage the earphone sound filter.
Warning: The cleaning tool is only to be used to clean the earphones.
Any other use, such as using the tool to clean ears or foam sleeve,
could result in injury.
The cable connectors to the earphones may collect debris or other
deposits that can affect audio quality. If this happens, disconnect the
cables and clean them using a dry cotton swab.
