Installation guide - Replacing ear pads
General guidance for this part type - always follow your device manual- No tools required
- Fit left and right the same way; some pads are thicker at the back.
- 1Remove the old pad. Depending on the headphones, twist it counterclockwise, unclip it, or peel its lip back off the rim of the ear cup.
- 2Clean the ear cup. Wipe off old foam crumbs and any adhesive residue.
- 3Fit the new pad. Twist or clip types: line up the tabs and press or turn until locked. Lip types: tuck the lip over the rim at the top, then work round with a fingernail or plastic card.
- 4Check the seal. Make sure no part of the lip is left outside the rim; a gap reduces bass and noise blocking.
This is general guidance for the part type, not a model-specific procedure. If the part does not fit without force, stop and recheck compatibility.
