The headset openings must remain clean and free of debris. Check to ensure that the openings on each earcup are clean before each flight. When wiping down the headset earcups, be sure not to force any dirt or debris into the openings. Carefully use tweezers, if necessary, to remove foreign matter that may be lodged in the openings. Do not blow air into or vacuum the openings as this may damage the headset
