ENGLISH
Ety8 Earphones sold in Europe comply with European law, which requires that the maximum
output of a portable player be limited to 100 dB (A scale). The maximum output of ety8
earphones sold outside Europe is 110 dB. Which is safer? Neither one. Research indicates that
nearly everyone chooses a safe listening level unless background noise forces them to turn up
the volume. The mission of Etymotic Research is to preserve hearing. Ety8 earphones block out
most background noise, allowing you to listen at lower, safer levels.
To increase output in European ety8 earphones:
1. Connect to iPod via the 8•Mate adapter.
2. Press/release PLAY/PAUSE on Rearphone.
3. Within 2 seconds: (1) Press/hold Volume UP (2) Press/release NEXT/Fast-Forward.
To decrease output:
1. Connect to iPod via the 8•Mate adapter.
2. Press/release the PLAY/PAUSE on the Rearphone.
3. Within 2 seconds: (1) Press/hold Volume DOWN (2) Press/release NEXT/Fast-Forward.
• Consult a medical professional if you have excessive earwax, or if you have
discomfort after prolonged use of the eartips.
• Do not use noise-isolating insert earphones while driving, operating machinery,
bicycling or jogging, because you may not be alerted to potential danger.

Select an eartip
When properly sealed, the earphones are
self-supporting in the ear canal. Sound
quality and noise isolation depend on a
good eartip seal.
Insertion
• Pull ear up and back.
• Twist earphone while inserting until outside
noise is sealed off.
• Position (rotate) earphones in the ear for the
best fit.
• Foam eartips: Roll the foam down, then insert
and hold in the ear for 5 seconds.
Removal
• To avoid discomfort, use a slow twisting
motion to gradually break the seal.
• Open the jaw slightly to equalize pressure, because
suction can occur when the eartip is removed.

Problem: Music does not play through the earphones.
Solution: Check all connections.
• Make sure the green LED is solidly illuminated on both earphones and adapter.
• Make sure the iPod is powered.
• If the iPod is paused, press PLAY.
• If the iPod is playing, press PLAY/PAUSE on the iPod two (2) times.
Problem: The music breaks up.
Solution: Reduce distance between the earphone and music player
Problem: The earphones seem to lack bass.
Solution: Check eartip seal.
A good eartip seal is critical. For the fullest frequency response:
• try inserting the eartips slightly deeper to obtain a better seal; or
• try other flanged or foam eartips for a better seal.
Problem: One earphone sounds weak.
Solution: Weak sound is usually caused by a blocked filter.
• Locate the filter changing tool.
• Remove the filter. See section 8 “Earphone filters.”
• Listen to the sound output to determine if the problem is solved.
• Replace the old filter with a new one. See section 8 “Earphone filters.”
Problem: Earphones connect, then quickly shut off.
Solution: Charge the earphones.
