The entire HM-10 assembly has been moisture-proofed to guard against deterioration
during use. After use in a high moisture application such as aerobics or a stage
performance, remove the foam screen, wipe the headset with a dry soft cloth and permit it
to air-dry. Do not store the unit in a closed space (e.g., a plastic bag) until all moisture has
evaporated, and avoid conditions of extremely high humidity. This will help maintain the
HM-10’s excellent performance. While the HM-10 is not unusually sensitive to the outside
environment, extremes in temperature can be harmful. Avoid, for example, leaving the
microphone in direct sunlight for long periods of time.
