HEADSET CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Instructions for continued airworthiness
Bose recommends following the general care and maintenance instructions in this guide. With normal use, items such as windscreens and ear cushions may require periodic replacement. If cleaning or replacement of these items is needed, follow the recommendations on the following pages. All other care and maintenance, in and out of the warranty period, must be performed by Bose or an authorized repair facility.
CAUTION: Do not immerse the headset in water or any other liquid. If the headset is immersed in liquid, do not use it. Contact Bose® Technical Support for assistance.
Cleaning the headset
General cleaning
Gently wipe the outside surfaces of the headband, connectors, plastic parts, and headband cushion, using a soft cloth moistened with water and mild soap. Take special care when cleaning the ear cushions and the outside surfaces of the earcups. Do not immerse ear cushions in water or any other liquid.
Headset earcup openings
The TriPort® headset opening and the microphone opening must remain clean and free of debris. Check to ensure that the openings on each earcup are clean before each flight.

When wiping down the headset earcups, be sure not to force any dirt or debris into the openings. Carefully use tweezers, if necessary, to remove foreign matter that may be lodged in the openings. Do not blow air into or vacuum the openings as this may damage the headset.
