How to install the earbuds 
correctly (see fig. )
If the earbuds do not fit your ears
correctly, low-bass sound may not be
heard. To enjoy better sound quality,
change the earbuds to another size, or
adjust the earbuds position to sit on
your ears comfortably and fit your ears
snugly.
If the earbuds do not fit your ears, try
another size. Confirm the size of the
earbuds by checking color inside (see

When you change the earbuds, turn to
install them firmly on the headphones
to prevent the earbud from detaching

Precautions
  Please keep your headphones clean
at all times especially inside the
rubber earbud. (see fig. )
If any dust or ear wax inside the
earbud, you may experience some
listening difficulties.
  Because the headphones are of a
high density enclosure, forcing them
against your ears may result in
eardrum damage. Avoid using the
headphones where they are liable to
be struck by people or other objects,
such as a ball, etc.
Pressing the headphones against
your ears may produce a diaphragm
click sound. This is not a
malfunction.
  Listening with headphones at high
volume may affect your hearing. For
traffic safety, do not use while
driving or cycling.
  The earbuds may deteriorate due to
long-term storage or use.
  Install the earbuds firmly onto the
headphones. If an earbud
accidentally detaches and is left in
your ear, it may cause injury.
Note on static electricity 
In particularly dry air conditions, mild
tingling may be felt on your ears. This
is a result of static electricity
accumulated in the body, and not a
malfunction of the headphones.
The effect can be minimized by
wearing clothes made from natural
materials.
On carrying case with speaker
  Although this system is magnetically
shielded, do not leave recorded
tapes, watches, personal credit cards,
or floppy disks with magnetic
coding in front of the system for an
extended period of time.
  Do not use alcohol, benzine, or
thinner to clean the cabinet.
EP-EX10A is available (sold
separately) as optional replacement
earbuds.
EP-EX10A offers 4 types of the
earbuds: SS, S, M and L.
