Wearing Instructions
The left and right earbuds can be worn interchangeably. Pinch the JointArc with your thumb and forefinger and raise it toward your ear. Place the ball-shaped speaker against the inner ridge of your ear (not inside the ear canal) and the cylindrical battery compartment behind your ear. Adjust the earbuds for a secure and comfortable fit. For the best fit, the recommended angle between the JointArc and the horizontal line is 0° to 30°, but you can adjust it based on your personal preference.
