Attaching the cable guides to the headset band
To use your own headphones with VIVE Cosmos Elite, you'll need the replacement kit for
headphones. For details on how to get the kit, contact Customer Care.
Before plugging in your earphones, attach the audio cable guide and headset cable guide to the
headset band.
The cable guides are included in the replacement kit for earphones. Before you attach the
cable guides, make sure to remove the on-ear headphones from the headset band, including
the front pad and side cushions. For details, see Detaching the on-ear headphones from the
headset band on page 28.
Use a cross-shaped screwdriver (PH00) to attach the screws.
1. Audio cable guide
2. Rubber pad
3. Screws
4. Side cushions
5. Headset cable guide
6. Cable stopper
1. On the right side of the band, place the audio connector between the rubber pad and audio
cable guide. Align the holes on the band, rubber pad, and audio cable guide, and then
screw in place.
2. On the left side of the band, align the headset cable guide holes with the holes on the
band, then screw in place. Make sure that the headset cable passes through the headset
cable guide. The stopper on the headset cable must also be placed on the visor side of the
cable guide.
3. Reattach the front pad and side cushions to the headset band. Make sure that each side
cushion is aligned with the curvature on the band.
