The microphone should be positioned to the side of the mouth, about 20 - 30 mm forward. This will keep it within the direct sound path, but out of the breath stream, therefore minimising any ‘pop’ sounds.

Important

Please note that there have been two versions of ear cup connecting cables used during production. The older DT 100 models have a cable with screw terminal contacts whereas later versions have soldered connections. Please make sure the correct cable version is requested when ordering.

Maintenance

To keep the headband and earpads clean use a damp cloth with a gentle cleansing agent (such as washing-up liquid). Make sure not to allow any water to enter the transducer elements. Do not use any solvent cleaners.

The microphone pop-shield of the DT 108/109 headset can be easily removed and washed in warm water. Please take care that the pop-shield is completely dry before it is replaced.

The fully modular design of the DT 100/102 and the DT 108/109 allows field replacement servicing without the need for specialist tools. The order numbers of the spare parts are listed under “Spares”.

In the unlikely event of equipment failure, the product should be returned to your beyerdynamic dealer.

Safety

We strongly recommend that the headphone or headset is plugged into the drive amplifier before you put them on. This will give the technician the chance to check that the volume levels are not too high.

Be aware that the very low levels of distortion can make listening levels higher than is perceived. Please take into consideration, that too high level hearing may lead, after considerable time, to irrevocable hearing damage.
