CHANGING FILTERS
Etymotic earphones have special lters that smooth the frequency response
and prevent earwax from entering the earphones. A lter is located
at the end of the earphone and is visible when the eartip is removed.
If a lter becomes clogged, it should be replaced. A dirty lter will reduce
earphone output. The lter should be changed if loudness decreases or the
sound quality declines. Note: Filters are not reusable.

1. Remove eartip. 2. Insert lter tool into
the lter.
3. Remove lter.
2. Press gently
against a hard
surface to secure
it in place.
3. Re-attach eartip.1. Insert a new lter.
Filter Replacement Do not use the tool to replace the lter.
