- When using your headset on a regular basis, it's important to treat it with care. Don't shout or yell into the mic; this may damage its delicate internal components. If the mic or earpieces comes with foam protectors, be sure to use them to prevent moisture damage. When plugging and unplugging the headset into its respective computer input jacks, don't apply unnecessary force. Always be gentle to avoid bending the plug.
- Proper storage of your headset is a must to ensure its long life. When the mic isn't in use, always store it in a safe, dry place to prevent accidental damage. For long-term storage, putting your headset in an airtight, secure case is recommended to prevent water damage. If you live in an area with high humidity, this is especially important. Always roll up the cable neatly to prevent it from tangling and potentially pulling on the earpieces.
- Computer headsets contain fragile electronic components, so cleaning them gently is important. Never use harsh chemicals to clean them, and always use a dry cloth, not paper towel. If the headset has removable foam pads, remove them to expose the mic and earpieces. Clean off any debris with a dry cloth. The foam pads can be cleaned and sterilized with water and a mild detergent. Always dry the pads completely before putting them back on. Never use a wet cloth on the earpieces or microphone itself.
