Care and Maintenance
Cleaning
Scheduled cleaning is not required. However, you can simply wipe the outside surface
of the headphones with a dry cloth, as needed. Also, be sure that the earcup ports are
clear and that no moisture is allowed into the earcups. Use only a dry cloth to clean
the electrical contacts on the battery, in the charger, or in the battery compartment of
the headphones.
CAUTIONS:
• Be sure to unplug the battery charger before cleaning it.
• DO NOT use a moist cloth to clean the electrical contacts on the battery, in the char-
ger, or in the battery compartment of the headphones.
