Your headset is backed by an amazing warranty. Please feel free to reach out to Faro for any questions, and we always appreciate your feedback. Thank you for choosing Faro as your aviation headset.
When listening to an audio source via your Faro AIR headset, please limit the volume to safe levels to ensure you are able to hear communication and warning alarms from your aircraft.
Support. Your FARO® headset is covered by a Three-Year Replacement Warranty and is eligible for the Life-time Tear and Wear Protection Plan. In the unlikely event that you experience any issues with your headset, please contact FARO® priority customer service to promptly receive troubleshooting tips or replacement.
Getting Started. Watch the Video. If you prefer to watch a short video on using your Faro AIR headset, visit: www.FaroAviation.com/AIR Attaching Ear Tips. Provide each new user with a new pair of ear tips, and change them whenever they appear soiled.
Correct Orientation. AIR offers maximum comfort due to its lightweight and simple design. The headset band should be placed behind your head, not over the head. This will position the microphone in front of your lips.
Using Position Clips. Use the clips provided to affix the AIR headset to your apparel. This will maintain the headset in a consistent position and offer strain relief.
Inserting Ear Tips. Give each new user a new pair of ear tips, and replace them when they are dirty or appear soiled. Compress the ear tip by pinching or squeezing them with your fingers. Use your opposite hand to pull your ear firmly back and upward to open the ear canal.
Using AIR. Adjusting Volume. On your controller, you will find a volume slide for each ear. It is recommended to start at the lowest setting and gradually increase the volume until the desired level is found. The overall headset volume is set based on controller's settings, as well as the aircraft’s intercom or...
Microphone Placement. For clear and crisp communication, the microphone should be placed approximately 1/8” from the lips. To adjust the microphone placement, bend the flexible boom to the desired location. If your speech is "broken" over the intercom or you find that you need to speak loudly to activate the microphone, you need to adjust the squelch setting on your aircraft avionics to the proper level.
Using AIR. Auxiliary Audio. Your AIR headset can be connected to an external audio source, such as a portable audio device or a GPS via the provided 3.5 mm cable. You will find the auxiliary input on the side of your audio controller.
Stereo / Mono Setting. Whether you should use Mono or Stereo setting depends on your aircraft’s avionics. An incorrect setting will result in communication being heard in only one side. You will find the Mono / Stereo switch on your controller under the volume slides.
Wash the ear tips with water and mild soap if desired. • Ensure AIR is fitting you properly by reviewing the adjustments on pages 6-8. The ear tip should be inserted all the way to provide an all-around seal in the ear canal.
Common Questions. Why can I hear in only one ear? Your AIR headset is compatible with both Stereo and Mono aircraft avionics. If your headset is incorrectly set, audio will be lost in one ear. Refer to page 13 for additional information.
