CHANGING SLEEVES
The sleeves at the end of the earphones can be replaced by sliding them off and on. A com-
bination of twisting and pulling is recommended for sleeve removal.
NOTE: On each foam sleeve there is a rough side and a smooth side. For greater com-
fort, Shure recommends that you place the smooth side facing out, away from the ear-
phone. On the E2 model earphones, the sleeve will only fit the earphone properly with
the smooth side facing out.
Foam Sleeves. These disposable foam sleeves compress to fit in the ear
canal. Once in the ear, the foam expands to form a tight seal. Once tightly
sealed, the sleeves hold the earphones firmly in place. The E3 and E5 come
with yellow foam sleeves. The E2 earphones come with three sizes of orange foam
sleeves to choose from—small, medium or large—for the best fit.
Flex Sleeves. These reusable sleeves, made of a clear pliable plastic
(PA756) or a soft, gray silicone rubber (PA758), fit comfortably in the ear and
allow for ease of insertion. Choose from 3 sizes—small, medium or large—
for the best fit. These should be cleaned regularly, using alcohol wipes or
an antiseptic.
Triple-Flange Sleeves (optional accessory for E3 and E5 only). These
reusable sleeves form a tighter seal than flex sleeves while holding the
earphones firmly in place. These should be cleaned regularly, using
alcohol wipes or an antiseptic.

IMPORTANT: Make sure that the sleeve complete-
ly covers the nozzle. If the nozzle is exposed, the
sleeve is not properly installed.
