2.0 Volume Controls
The PA-1161 is fitted with individual volume controls, located on both ear cups of the
headset. When adjusting the volume controls, the pilot-in-command should adjust their
volume control first with the audio system turned on. Please remember that you may be
dealing with three volume controls: radio, intercom, and headset.
2.1 Mono/Stereo Selector
Your headset comes standard with a Mono/Stereo selector switch which is located on
the com-cord splitter. "M" indicates the mono position while "S" indicates the stereo
position. It should be noted that if you are using a monaural intercom and your
headset is set in the stereo position, you will only hear through one speaker of
your headset. With a stereo intercom you will hear true stereo in both ears.

Your headset is fitted with foam ear seals. The ear seals are light weight and great for
noise cancelling.

The PA-1161 has a multi-cushioned foam headpad that will distribute the weight of the
headset over the entire head thus eliminating hot spots.
