Monitor Care and Maintenance
Here are a few simple guidelines that can greatly increase your listening enjoyment and
the lifespan of your UM monitors.
Always store your monitors in the provided case.
In case of poor sound quality due to earwax in the sound bore, use the included wax
removal loop to carefully remove the earwax. Never use any other object to attempt
to remove the earwax as this may result in damage to the monitors and will void the
warranty.
Do not use the cord to remove the monitors from your ears. This may cause damage to
the cord and result in poor performance. Damage of this nature is not covered by the
warranty.
Do not expose your monitors to temperature extremes. Avoid strong impacts to your
monitors.
Wipe down your monitors after each use and never immerse them in water.
Please Note: Moisture in your monitors can cause temporary performance issues. Do not
insert your monitors if your ears are wet. Always dry your ears completely before inserting
your monitors. Should you inadvertently allow water or perspiration into the monitors and
they quit working, allow to dry completely before attempting to use again. Minor moisture
build-up should dry out and not aect long-term performance. Extended exposure to
moisture or submersion will result in permanent damage (not covered by the warranty).
