Volume control
Control of the volume level of the Bose Aviation Headset X requires
adjustments at both the aircraft intercom or radio and at the headset
installed control module.
Note:
Avoid setting the volume levels too high. Exposure to loud
sounds may cause hearing damage. The headset volume control
cannot completely turn off the volume.
Turn on the power switch located on the control module.
Set the aircraft communication system to a safe
operating level.
Set the volume levels for the left and right earcups
by rotating the thumb wheels as needed.
Note:
The microphone and cable assembly can be attached to either
earcup. Thumb wheel #1 will always control the volume level of the
earcup with the microphone and cable assembly attached. Thumb
wheel #2 will always control the volume level of the earcup without the
microphone and cable assembly attached.
Note:
If you are connecting the headset to your aircraft for the first
time, turn down the master output level of your radio/intercom system
to avoid exposure to high volume levels.
