Wearing the Earphones
Exchanging the Ear Pieces
* The CS-10EM’s microphones use plug-in power. They cannot be used with a
device that does not provide plug-in power. You must make sure that the mic
input jack of the device to which the CS-10EM is connected is a 3.5 mm stereo
mini, plug-in powered jack.
* If you’re using an EDIROL R-09 series or Roland R-09/R-05 series unit, turn on
the plug-in power of the R-05/R-09 series unit.
* You must minimize the volume before making connections. If the volume of
the connected device is raised when you make connections, you might
damage the earphones, cause acoustic feedback, or cause some other
problem with your playback system.
* To prevent cable breakage, grasp the base of the plug when connecting or
disconnecting it.
Slide tube
The earphones will stay in your ears more securely if
you adjust the slide tube to the appropriate position.
The CS-10EM will sound dierently depending on
how tightly the ear piece is inserted in your ear.
In order to enjoy the best possible sound, insert
the ear piece so that it ts snugly and is
suciently inside your ear.
When shipped from the factory, the M-size ear
pieces are attached. If the ear pieces do not t
your ears, try exchanging them with the included
L-size or S-size ear pieces.
To remove the ear piece, grasp the main body of
the earphone, and gently pull the tip of the ear
piece.
* Make sure to turn the volume control for the headphones all the way down
before you put them on. Otherwise, if the volume is at a raised level when you
put on the headphones, you risk harming your ears due to unexpected
acoustical feedback or contact noise produced when putting on the
headphones.

Caution when recording
• Since this device contains a microphone and earphone in a single unit, acoustic feedback
may occur if you turn on a recording monitoring function and raise the recording level or
headphone volume. Acoustic feedback is also more likely to occur if you cover the unit
with the palm of your hand.
High-volume acoustic feedback may damage your hearing, so please adjust the volume to
an appropriate level.
• If you use this device near a computer or other electronic device, or connect it to a
recorder that is connected to an AC adaptor, noise might be heard in the recording. In this
case, move away from the electronic device, or operate your recorder on battery power.
• The microphone section is designed to minimize contact noise from the cable, but contact
noise might be heard if the cable is subjected to excessively rough handling.
• The microphone section is designed to minimize wind noise, but wind noise might be
heard in conditions of strong wind.
