(for headphone) Quick Guide
QUICK GUIDE for SM-823D, SM-824D & SM-825D IMPORTANT:
1. The unit will not work with the optical audio if the optical cable is carrying a
Dolby Digital or DTS signal.
In this case, set the Audio Out Format of your TV and TV related AV devices (e.g., cable box/DVD etc) to
PCM to get the unit to work.
2. Three different audio cords: digital optical cord, RCA cord and 3.5mm cord. In the end, only one of these cords is needed to complete the installation.
3. This device is a wireless TV headset as well as a personal sound amplifier. You can find a
MIC ON/OFF
button at the rear of headset. It is designed for hearing impaired people to clearly hear what people’s
talking to him/her nearby when watching TV. Just press MIC ON/OFF button , you can turn this headset to
a personal sound amplifier which could amplify the people’s voice around. When you want to back to
watching TV, just press the MIC button again. When use it as a wireless TV headset, the green working
indicator is on. As a personal sound amplifier, the red MIC indicator is on.
4. We suggest to hook up the transmitter base to the Optical Audio Out port of your TV/Smart TV box/ Cable TV box/Set-top box/DVD/other audio device in priority, for enjoying the super sound quality.
For streaming media watching (Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, etc.), place the transmitter base at least 4 feet away from your smart WiFi TV/WiFi TV box/TV sticks to avoid interference.

SEVEN FREQUENCY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQ) from marketing statistical analysis:
1.Outside noise overpowers the TV voice.
It is possible that the MIC ON/OFF button at the rear of headset is pressed on inadvertently, in this case the
MIC
indicator is solid red . To back to watching TV, just press the MIC ON/OFF button again or switch off the headset
and then restart with the red MIC indicator off and the green TV receiving indicator on.
2.The connections are correct and in place, but no TV sound is heard or sound cuts in and out.
1) It is possible that the volume of the audio source is set too low. If you connect
STB/Cable box/DVD etc to the
TV to watch programs, then the audio source is the STB/Cable box/DVD etc. Please use the audio source’s
remote control to set its volume to a sufficient level to ensure a steady sound signal. If you want to mute the TV
sound and only hear from this headset, please use your TV remote control to click
MUTE menu. (For most TVs,
the TV’s speakers are separately controlled from the TV’s audio out).
2) When do connection with the optical cable, set the Audio Out Format of your TV and TV related AV devices
(e.g., cable box/DVD etc ) to PCM to get the unit to work. ( Settings > Sound > Digital Audio Out Format >

Notes: The charging time is approx. 3 hours. Before using the spare rechargeable battery for the first time, charge it for at least 3 hours. The headphone battery will last around 10 hours on a full charge, but will last a lesser or greater amount of time depending on the average volume level of the headphone.
6. Customizing your SM-826D
1) Please make sure the headphones are being worn properly. Each side of the headphone has a letter to guide the wearer: “L” for left and “R” for right. You can adjust the retractable headband to fit you better.
