Fitting Your Headset
Fitting your headset properly is the key to
comfortable use and superior Active Noise
Reduction (ANR) capabilities. To gain peak
performance from the ANR feature it is necessary to
have a solid seal around your entire ear combined
with a symmetrical t on your head.
The following tips will assist you in achieving the
proper t.
A. Fit your ears entirely within the ear cups
providing a solid seal.
B. Rest the headband on top of your head with the
sliders extended fully. With your thumbs on the
ear cups, place your remaining ngers on the
headband and squeeze until you have a snug,

but not overly tight, t. Your ears should be
centered inside the ear cups.
C. Position the microphone inch from your mouth,
with the gain adjustment cap facing away from
you (visible when you remove the mic mu).
This side of the microphone
should face away from you.
Tall head pad
If you feel that your ears are not centered within the
ear cups, even after collapsing the sliders completely,
a taller head pad might be the solution. This will move
the ear cups further up the side of your head and
should allow you to center your ears within the cups.
To order a complimentary tall head pad (part
number A484), please call Customer Service at
and mention promo code FTHP. You will be asked to
provide your headset serial number. See page 17 to
locate the serial number.
Battery Installation
The standard Zulu 3 battery–powered headsets
require two AA batteries (included). Use alkaline
batteries for best performance.
A. Open the controller battery/DIP switch door
by either pressing down on the circle icon or
by pulling open the door along the notched
edges. Insert two AA batteries with the correct
polarity positioning.
B. The LED ashes GREEN when charged batteries
are in use and the power is on.
C. When batteries begin to run low the power LED
ashes RED. If the LED ashes RED during ight
the headset will continue to operate. Install new
batteries as soon as possible at any indication of
low batteries.

Battery Types
Use two AA alkaline or lithium batteries. Lithium
batteries may provide improved battery life in
colder temperatures. We do not recommend using
rechargeable batteries or mixing battery types
and brands.
Battery Life
A set of batteries can provide up to 40 hours
of power. However, heavy Bluetooth® wireless
technology usage can signicantly reduce battery
life. Under quiet conditions Zulu 3 will auto shut
o approximately ve minutes after the headset is
removed from your head.

Matching Stereo/Mono Setting to an Audio Panel
The Stereo/Mono DIP switch setting should match
the signal from your audio panel. OFF (the setting
for stereo) should be used for a stereo panel and
MONO for a mono panel. Incorrect settings result in
communications being heard in only one ear. The
Stereo/Mono DIP switch does not aect auxiliary
devices, so you can enjoy auxiliary audio in stereo
regardless of how the Stereo/Mono DIP switch is set.
Front Row Center™
Front Row Center is a built-in feature that gives you
a theater-like experience, enhancing stereo sound
reproduction so that audio seems to come from all
around you, not just from your right and left.
