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.
