Setup
Follow these steps to properly connect the detachable cable to your CCA CRA earphones:
- Identify Left and Right: Distinguish the cable PIN connector for the right (R) and left (L) earphone. The cable will have 'R' and 'L' marks on the connector jacket. To identify the earphone unit itself, place it on a flat surface with the logo facing you. If the eartip is tilted to the left, it is the left earphone; if tilted to the right, it is the right earphone. The earphone units also have 'R' and 'L' marks.
- Align Connectors: Ensure the 'R' mark on the cable connector aligns with the 'R' earphone unit, and similarly for the 'L' side. The earphone cover with the logo side should face you, and the cable's 'L' or 'R' marks should also face you during connection.
- Insert Connector: Carefully insert the 0.75mm standard gold-plated PIN connector into the corresponding earphone socket.
- Secure Connection: The cable connector is designed for a secure fit and may require a little force to fully insert. Push firmly until it clicks into place.

Maintenance
Proper care will extend the life and maintain the performance of your CCA CRA headset:
- Keep Dry: Avoid exposing the earphones to moisture, sweat, or extreme temperatures.
- Clean Eartips: Regularly remove and clean the silicone eartips with a soft, damp cloth. Ensure they are completely dry before reattaching.
- Clean Earphone Nozzles: Gently wipe the earphone nozzles with a dry cotton swab to remove any earwax or debris. Be careful not to push debris further into the earphone.
- Store Properly: When not in use, store the earphones in a protective case to prevent tangling, kinks in the cable, and physical damage.
- Handle Cable with Care: The oxygen-free copper flat cable is designed for durability, but avoid excessive pulling or sharp bends.
