Your QuietComfort

Acoustic

Noise Cancelling

Headset

Thank you for purchasing the Bose

QuietComfort

Acoustic Noise Cancelling headset. Advanced design,

integrated technologies, and high quality materials

enable the headset to provide you with clearer, more lifelike

sound reception, while reducing unwanted noise.

Wearing it comfortably and effectively

Notice the marking L or R on the headband just above

each earcup. They indicate the proper position (L for left

ear, R for right) to ensure a good fit and performance.

Put the headset on and adjust it so the headband rests

gently on your head and the earcushions fit snugly (an

effective seal) and comfortably around your ears (with your

ears completely inside the ear cushions).

Remove any jewelry or earwear that affects the comfort

and fit of the headset.

Using your headset

The headset has two volume settings – Hi and Lo. These

settings are only volume levels for listening to audio and do

not impact the noise reduction technology.

For noise reduction technology only, turn the unit on Hi or

Lo and do not plug the headset into any audio source.

For audio use, begin listening in the Lo setting. Then adjust

the volume on the audio source. For more volume, try the

Hi setting. First turn down the volume on the audio source,

then switch to the Hi setting. Finally, re-adjust the volume

on the audio source.

The headset can be used with a variety of audio sources:

CD, DVD, MP3, laptop computers, and home stereo.

Cleaning

Be sure to keep the ports on the outside of each earcup

free from debris. Do not blow air into or vacuum the ports

or the earcups.

Use a damp, clean cloth to remove dirt or smudges

from the various headset parts. Do not allow moisture to

enter the ports or inner earcup openings.

Avoid use of sprays or chemical cleaning fluids.

Cautions

Long-term exposure to loud music may cause hearing

damage. It is best to avoid extreme volume when using

this headset, especially for extended periods.

Do not use the headset for reproducing sound when

operating a motor vehicle on a public road or where the

inability to hear outside sounds may present a danger to

the user or others.

Sounds that you rely on as reminders or warnings may

have an unfamiliar character when you are using the

headset. Be aware of how those sounds may vary in

character, so you can recognize them as needed.

Do not drop, sit on, or allow the headset to be immersed

in water.

Uses and Reminders

Earcushion reattachment

If the earcushions come off, replace them as follows:

1. Fit the plastic skirting around the rim of the earcup.

2. Make sure it attaches smoothly and uniformly around

the entire earcup. (Do not remove the earcup lining

material).

Earcushions may need to be replaced due to normal

wear and tear. Replacement kits can be purchased by

calling Bose

. See the back cover of this owner’s guide

for a list of phone numbers.

Battery replacement

In this application, battery life averages 80 hours. With

the headset turned on, a flashing light on the control

box indicates a minimum of 8 hours of use remains.

When replacement is indicated, use 2 AAA alkaline

batteries (IEC LR03). Dispose of used batteries properly.

Note:

Rechargable batteries can be used, averaging half

the life of alkaline (NimH are recommended). However, the

low battery indicator light is not calibrated to these

batteries and may not function properly.
