Putting the batteries into the headphone

The batteries must be fully charged before first use. An initial 24 hour charge is required to guarantee an acceptable service life for the rechargeable batteries. Always ensure that the headphones are switched to the position OFF while the batteries are charging.

1. Remove the small cover on the battery compartment on left side of the receiver headphone.
2. Install two AAA sized, rechargeable NiMH batteries (type HR03) according to the correct polarity (marked in the battery compartment).
3. Close the battery compartment.
4. Switch off the receiver headphones and place it into the transmitter to charge the batteries for 24 hours before the initial use.

Using the headphones 6

Using this appliance at full volume for extended periods of time may cause damage to the hearing capacity of the listener. In the first instance set the volume of the audio device to a value at the lowest end of the scale before you put on the headphones. Then select a comfortable volume. Excessive volume can damage your hearing.

Switch on

1. Turn on the audio source (TV set or any audio devices) which the transmitter has connected.
2. Switch on the headphones.
3. Place the headphones on your head and adjust the volume to obtain the desired sound level.
4. If you cannot find the best reception frequency, press the "Auto Scan" button on the headphones to get the fine scanned channel.

You should then be able to move around freely from one room to another without any interference. If interference does occur (interruptions in the signal), press the "Auto Scan" button once to find a better reception channel.

B If it is impossible to find a satisfactory frequency, change the channel setting on your transmitter, then press the "Auto Scan" button on the headphones to find the corresponding channel.

To protect the transmitter and to save power, the transmitter will automatically switch off after approximately four minutes if there is no audio signal, or the signal that it receives from the audio source is too weak for proper reception. If the signal returns to an acceptable level, then the transmitter will automatically switch back on.

Charging the batteries

1. Switch OFF the receiver headphone.
2. To recharge the headphone batteries, place the headphones on the transmitter, taking care to ensure that the charge contacts touch the transmitter's charge pins and the green charging indicator is ON.
