Instructions for Use
Changing Frequencies Using the
Tunable Diaphragm
Your Littmann Master Classic II Stethoscope is
equipped with a patented tunable diaphragm that
enables you to listen to both low and high frequency
sounds without turning over the chestpiece.
Low frequencies: To listen
to low frequency sounds
(traditional bell mode) use
very light skin contact.
High frequencies: To listen
to higher frequency
sounds (traditional
diaphragm mode), press
firmly on the chestpiece.
To listen to low and high frequency sounds without
removing and repositioning the chestpiece simply
alternate between light and firm pressure on the
chestpiece.
Headset Adjustment
Your new Littmann stethoscope
is designed to provide a
comfortable, acoustically sealed
ear fit. Notice that the eartubes
are set to accommodate the
typical anatomy of the ear canal.
The eartips should point in a
forward direction as you insert
them into your ear canals.
To reduce spring tension in
the headset, hold each eartube
at the bend near the eartip and
gradually pull apart until fully
extended.
To increase spring tension,
grasp the headset with one
hand where the eartubes enter
the tubing and squeeze until
the tubing on one eartube
touches the other. Repeat as
necessary.
For maximum acoustic
performance, comfortable
patented 3M™ Littmann®
Soft-sealing Eartips are
provided with your
stethoscope. This stethoscope
utilizes a unique design for
attaching the eartip to the
eartube. The eartips are pushed on to the end of the
eartube and snapped firmly into place. To remove, pull
firmly on the eartip.
Removing the Diaphragm and
Cleaning the Chestpiece
With the diaphragm side up,
grasp the rim with the
thumbs and index fingers of
both hands and roll the rim
off the edge of the
chestpiece. Remove the
diaphragm from the rim and
clean the parts in soapy water or wipe with alcohol.
Chestpiece surfaces can be wiped with alcohol or soapy

water. Dry all parts and surfaces thoroughly before
reassembly.
Assembly and Replacement of the
Tunable Diaphragm
Using your fingertip, apply a
small amount of talcum powder
to the inside surface of the
flexible edge of the diaphragm.
This will facilitate assembly
and maintain smooth and quiet
low/high frequency alternation.
Snap the diaphragm with your
fingers to remove excess talc.
Insert the flexible edge of the
diaphragm into the groove of
the rim. This is best
accomplished by starting with
the rim positioned above the
legible side of the diaphragm.
Visually examine the ring to
ensure that the flexible edge is
smoothly engaged inside the
rim. If necessary, flex the
assembly by pinching the outer
rim edge between the thumb
and fingers. Repeat this flexing
procedure after rotating the
assembly one quarter.
To attach the rim/diaphragm
assembly to the chestpiece,
engage the groove of the rim
(with the diaphragm attached)
around the chestpiece at one
point and hold it in place with
your thumbs.
Slowly roll the rim around and
over the chestpiece edge using
both thumbs, moving in
opposite directions around the
chestpiece.
Visually inspect the edge
where the diaphragm engages
the rim for uniform
containment. Minor
adjustments may be made by
slightly pulling and rolling the
rim away from the diaphragm,
allowing the diaphragm to slip into position.
General Use and Maintenance
• Avoid extreme heat, cold, solvents, and oils.
• The entire stethoscope can be wiped clean with
alcohol or soapy water.
• Eartips can be removed from the eartubes for
thorough cleaning.
NOTE: Do not immerse your stethoscope in any liquid
or subject it to steam sterilization. If disinfection is
required, the stethoscope may be wiped with a 70%
isopropyl alcohol solution.
