3. Introduction  
5. Installing the shuffle into the Shuffle Case  
6. Important Seal Information  
The H2O Audio iSH2 Headset allows for an all-in-one waterproof solution (up to 10ft. /  
3m) for the iPod shuffle (2nd Gen). Allowing you to listen to digital audio during active  
watersports, like swimming. The Shuffle Case allows for functional control of the player  
while in the water with the Button Pad Control. NOTE: The Case has no access to the  
Shuffle Switch or On / Off Switch on the iPod shuffle.  
The most important feature of iSH2 Headset Case is the Seal that forms a waterproof  
barrier between the base and lid of the case. The Seal is not removable and should  
never come out of alignment. If the Seal shows any signs of wear or is coming out of  
alignment it is extremely important that you contact H2O Audio Customer Service  
immediately. It is up to you to check that the Seal is not damaged or out of alignment  
every time you install your iPod shuffle (2nd Gen) in the case.  
The headset includes Waterproof Speakers, made for complete submersion up to  
10ft.(3m) and designed with Removable Earbuds which can be used with the included  
Goggle Clips to stay secure when wearing swim goggles.  
Note: The iPod shuffle (2nd Gen) is NOT waterproof without the iSH2 Headset and is NOT  
covered under the product warranty. Any attempt to use the iSH2 Headset with an audio  
player other then the Apple iPod shuffle (2nd Gen) will void the warranty.  
If the Seal is dirty, or damaged in any way it will compromise the  
integrity of the case and should not be used.

Discontinue use at the first sign of pain or discomfort.

4. Audio / Leak Test  
Before using the iSH2 Headset it is recommended you perform an Audio Test.  
1. Install the shuffle player into the Shuffle Case and verify that audio is audible through  
both speakers. If speakers are working remove the shuffle player and perform the leak  
test.  
2. If your earbuds are operating at very low audio levels, it is possible that a vacuum has  
formed in the speaker chamber due to exposure to low pressure, such as in air travel.  
3. Playing the headset at 90% volume for an hour typically solves this problem. If not,  
please contact H2O Audio Customer Support.

8. Creating a Custom Fit  
10. Removing Earbuds and using Goggle Clips  
11. Fitting the Earplugs  
The H2O Audio iSH2 Headset includes removable Aquatic Silencer Earplugs  
designed to keep water from freely flowing in and out of the ear canal during use. For  
the best performance, the earplug needs to seal completely with the walls of the inner  
ear. These earplugs are very pliable, and can fit in most peoples ears. Typically rotating  
the speaker so it plays into the ear, will help to clarify sound during watersports.  
The main adjustments in the headset are made in the Ear-Clip portion of the headphones.  
In some situations, the Neckwrap is not desired, such as under a swim cap. For these  
situations, we have designed Goggle Clips that hold the Removable Earbuds in place  
using the goggle strap. To remove the Earbuds and use the Goggle Clips, perform the  
following steps:  
1. Pull the earbud straight

2. The sound quality seems muffled, what can I do to fix this problem?  
1. Purchase some wax earplugs (they cost about $0.99) from your  
local drug store.  
2. Rip a piece of the wax and roll it into a cylinder long enough to go  
around the circumference of the largest barb of the earplug.  
3. Wrap the cylinder of wax around the largest barb of the earplug.  
This creates a custom mold to you ear and will help prevent  
water from entering the ear and muffling the sound.  
ALWAYS MAKE SURE TO HAVE THE AUDIO PLAYER VOLUME TURNED TO ZERO AND  
THE SPEAKERS AWAY FROM THE EARS WHEN TURNING ON THE H2O AUDIO UNIT. IF  
THE VOLUME LEVEL IS NOT ZERO WHEN THE H2O AUDIO IS TURNED ON, IT MAY  
CAUSE EAR INJURY DUE TO A SUDDEN BURST OF VOLUME. THE VOLUME SHOULD BE  
SLOWLY INCREASED WITH AN AUDIO FILE PLAYING TO SET THE SPEAKER VOLUME TO  
COMFORTABLE OUTPUT LEVELS PRIOR TO POSITIONING THE SPEAKERS NEXT TO THE  
EARS.  
3. The Neckwrap is uncomfortable and moves around when swimming,  
what can I do?  
We recommended removing the Neckwrap and using the Goggle Clips.
