Correct placement of the headset and
microphone is critical to using your headset
successfully. Make sure the headset goes
over the top of your head, not around the
back of your head. You may rotate the
microphone and earpiece to your right or
left side. Position the microphone about
one inch (2.54 cm) from your mouth and off
to one side. This will ensure that it doesn't
transmit your breathing into a chat session.
As you adjust the microphone, make sure
the microphone opening is pointed toward
your mouth and not rotated on its axis.
Now the headset is ready for a game or
3
chat session. Start your game or chat and
turn the volume up to a comfortable level.

or permanent hearing loss. Some

produce higher sound levels than
approved Xbox 360 Headsets.
