How to install the earbuds correctly
If the earbuds do not fit your ears
correctly, low bass sound may not be
heard or the Noise Canceling function
(NW-S703F/S705F/S706F only) may not
work. To enjoy better sound quality,
adjust the earbuds position to sit on your
ears comfortably or push them into the
inside of your ears so that they fit your
ears snugly. At purchase, M size earbuds
are installed. If the earbuds do not fit
