Failure to do so could result in the batteries leaking or exploding. Only use batteries (or rechargeable batteries) that match the specified type. Before you insert the batteries, clean the battery contacts and the polarity contacts. Do not allow children to change batteries without supervision. Do not mix old and new batteries, or batteries of different types or from different manufacturers. Remove the batteries from products that are not being used for an extended period (unless these are being kept ready for an emergency). Do not short-circuit batteries. Do not charge batteries. Do not burn batteries. Keep batteries out of the reach of children. Never open, damage or swallow batteries or allow them to enter the environment.

Avoid storing, charging and using in extreme temperatures and at extremely low atmospheric pressures (such as at high altitudes).
	Warning – high volume High sound pressure! There isarisk of hearing damage. To prevent any loss of hearing, avoid listening at loud volumes for prolonged periods. Always keep the volume at a sensible level. Loud volumes, even over short periods, can cause hearing loss. Using this product limits your perception of ambient noise . You should therefore not use any vehicles or machinery while using it.

Installation of the transmitter / charging station Pic 3

Warning Only operate the product from a socket that has been approved for the device. The socket must be installed close to the product and must be easily accessible. Disconnect the product from the power supply using the On/Off switch – if this is not available, unplug the power cord from the socket. If using a multi-socket power strip, make sure that the total power consumption of all connected devices does not exceed the power strip’s maximum throughput rating. If you will not be using the product for a prolonged period, disconnect it from mains power

• Connect the power supply unit to the connection socket or to the DC input socket (8) on the back of the transmitter.
• Connect the plug-in power supply to a socket.
• Connect one of the included audio cables (RCA or optical) to the audio inputs / ANA- LOGUE / (10) or / OPTIC / (11) on the back of the transmitter and to the corresponding audio output on your playback device (TV or audio source).
• Push the input selector switch (12) on the back of the transmitter towards the connected audio input cable (Audio IN – optical)

Installation of the receiver / headphones Pic 2

• Carefully remove the ear pad on the right-hand side.
• Insert the two supplied batteries and check the correct polarity.
• Reattach the ear pad until it clicks audibly into place.

Getting started

• Switch on the audio source connected to the transmitter.
• Switch the headphones on by moving the Power button (6) to ON. The LED (5) on the headphones lights up red.
• Ensure that the LED indicator on the bar on the charging station (1) is red.
• Put on the headphones and adjust the volume as required.
• Before using them for the first time, ensure that the battery is fully charged. Please charge the battery for at least 24 hours before first use
• Switch the headphones off when not in use and place them back on the transmitter’s charging contacts.

Note If you are unable to find an ideal reception frequency, press the Auto-tune button (3) on the headphones. If you are unable to find an adequate frequency, change the frequency channel on the back of the transmitter. Then confirm the corresponding channel on the headphones by pressing the Auto-tune button. To achieve the best possible sound from your headphones, you should set the volume of the sound source (TV, stereo system, etc.) as loud as possible and then reduce the volume on the headphones yourself

The transmitter transfer is switched off automatically if no audio signal is detected for a period of around 4 minutes or if the audio source signal becomes too weak for error-free reception. As soon as the signal strength is sufficient again, the transmitter switches itself back on. The headphones do not switch themselves off automatically.

Charging process Pic. 3

• Switch the headphones off.
• Switch the headphones as shown in the charging station. As you do so, ensure that the charging contacts touch both devices.
• The green LED (1) now lights up. The charging process begins automatically.

Note To avoid damage to the batteries, always switch the headphones off when they are not in use. The batteries must be fully charged before first use. A 24-hour initial charge is required to guarantee an acceptable service life for the batteries. Subsequent charging processes then take around 10 hours. The batteries are not charged when the transmitter is switched off.

Troubleshooting

No sound

• Check whether the audio settings on your TV set are set to “Format of the digital audio signal”. Then switch the audio source from Digital Dolby to PCM.
• Check that the plug-in power supply unit is fully connected to the socket and that, at the other end, it is correctly connected to the power supply unit’s input socket on the transmitter.
• Ensure that the headphones are switched on.
• The batteries in the headphones may have an inadequate residual charge. Charge the batteries. Check whether your TV set, HiFi system or audio component is switched on and that one channel is set to transfer audio signals.
• Increase the volume using the control on the headphones.
• Is it possible that the connected audio / video device is not in playback mode? Please switch this on accordingly.
• The output level of the audio source may be set too low. Adjust the volume accordingly

Distortion

• Press the Auto-tune button.
• Select a different frequency channel (1, 2 or 3).
  Then press the Auto-tune button again.
• The batteries in the headphones may have an inadequate residual charge. Charge the batteries.
• Increase the volume using the control on the headphones.
• The distance between the headphones and the transmitter may be too great. Bring the two devices closer together and rotate the headphones towards the transmitter.
• The input level of the audio signal may be too low. Increase the volume on the audio source.
