Setup
- Identify Radio Connector: Ensure your two-way radio has a K-head 2-pin connector port. The Retevis EEK022 earpiece is designed specifically for this type of connection.
- Connect Earpiece: Carefully align the 2-pin connector of the earpiece with the corresponding ports on your walkie-talkie. The larger pin (3.5mm) goes into the larger jack, and the smaller pin (2.5mm) into the smaller jack. Push firmly until both pins are fully inserted.
- Position Earpiece: Place the in-ear earpiece comfortably into your ear. It can be worn in either the left or right ear.
- Secure PTT Unit: Use the rotatable stainless steel clip on the PTT (Push-to-Talk) unit to attach it securely to your collar, lapel, or other convenient location on your clothing. Ensure the microphone is positioned close enough to your mouth for clear voice transmission.
- Adjust Cable Length: The coil tube allows for some flexibility. Adjust the cable length as needed for comfort and to minimize snagging.
