For the optimal functionality of QuietOn Dental earplugs, it is very important to follow the instructions for use, cleaning and maintenance.
QuietOn active noise cancelling earplugs are delivered in a practical charging case. They are ready to use and fully charged for 50 hours when you take them out of the case. It is important to position the earplugs correctly in the ear to make the most out of this smart hearing protector device.

Pay attention to place earplug marked R to your right ear, and earplug marked L to your left ear. In the same way, match the earplugs correctly when returning them to the case after use.
Take the earplug out of the charging case. QuietOn earplug turns on automatically when removed from the charging case and it turns off when returned into the case.
Test the functionality by covering the earplug hole with your finger. A faint beep sound indicates that the active noise cancelling technology is functioning and that the earplug is charged and ready to use.
Turn the round and wider part of the earplug upwards. Push it firmly inside your ear.
Twist backwards. The beep stops when the earplug is placed airtight and correctly in the ear.

There are three options included in the sales package. The default pre-set tips are black Comply Memory foam tips. Use these or switch to different size silicone eartips (blue M or green S). There are 8 additional pairs of silicone tips in QuietOn dental package.
Ensure that the chosen eartip is small enough to penetrate the ear canal and fits securely. It is equally important to check that the tip is also large enough to ensure an airtight fit.
The eartips are changed by pulling them off and pushing new ones firmly against the earplugs. Avoid touching the delicate mesh as well as the inner components of the earplugs.

QuietOn earplugs will last a very long time as long as you keep your ears clean and follow the recommended cleaning and maintenance instructions.

Avoid letting any moisture or liquid penetrate these inner parts of the earplug.
Clean the tips regularly to avoid any dirt or ear wax becoming attached to them. Gathering dirt may impact functionality over time and the first indication of this will be a constant beeping sound. It can be an indication that there is some dirt or ear wax on the mesh, preventing the correct operation of the earplug. If this should happen, see the instructions below for cleaning the mesh.

The plastic body can be gently cleaned with alcohol-free disinfection wipes. Avoid touching the delicate mesh under the tip. The earplug body is not waterproof, but it has an IP54 rating.
The charging case can be cleaned by a dry or damp cloth or alcohol-free disinfection wipes. The charging case has no IP rating. Be very careful with the USB port. The interior of the charging case should be kept free of dust and debris. In case you need to clean the interior of the charging case, use only a dry cotton stick or microfibre cloth. Be careful never to bend the charging contacts.
The mesh located under the tip protects the delicate audio canal of the earplug. It is made of thin woven polyester cloth. Any removal or misplacement of the mesh will result in the earplug malfunctioning. Avoid touching it.
If ears and earplugs are not cleaned regularly, dirt may gather on the mesh thereby blocking the proper operation of the earplug. This will damage the optimal flow of sound waves and will result in a continuous beep sound, indicating a functional error.
Please inspect the surface of the mesh and clean it only when needed. Repeated unnecessary cleaning may cause the mesh to detach.
During cleaning, keep the earplug’s audio canal in a downwards position all the times to avoid any water flowing through the mesh into the device’s electronic parts. Do not use soap, alcohol or any other detergents. Hard objects like toothpicks will also damage the delicate mesh.
Use only warm clean water and cotton sticks for cleaning the mesh.
Dip the cotton stick in the water and wipe the mesh gently with cotton sticks, avoid using sticks which are overly moist. Do not push into the mesh too much.
Dry the mesh with a dry paper towel. Repeat wiping and drying process for 5 times until there is no more wax on the mesh.
