Configuring the Boom Microphone (Figure 7) The boom microphone is commonly worn on the left side but can be installed on either the left or right ear cup. To move the mic from one side to the other: Identify and pull out the two-pin plug that attaches the boom mic to the ear cup.
Powering Up and Using the Talk-through SA Function (Figure 10) Place the headset on your head. Power up active talk-through by pressing and holding either the + or – button on the left side of the headset until a long tone sounds to indicate that talk-through SA is active.

At approximately 30 minutes of battery life remaining, the headset will present an audible tone to the user indicating that there is low battery life. This will repeat every 2 minutes until the batteries are depleted.
