Resetting the
Headphones
If you ever want to return the
headphones to their factory presets,
simply reset the headphones by
triggering the reset button on the
right headphone with a paper clip.
Important Note About Audio Outputs
If possible, use a fixed-level (or line-level) audio output from your
audio source. This kind of output provides a consistent level of audio
that doesn’t change when you adjust the source’s volume control.
Fixed-level audio outputs from stereo receivers/amps are typically
designated as tape or VCR audio output connections, sometimes
marked on the component as ‘TAPE OUTPUT,’ ‘TAPE OUT,’ ‘TAPE REC,
or ‘TAPE RECORD or REC OUT.’
Fixed-level outputs from TVs are usually marked as ‘Constant,’ ‘Fixed,’
or ‘Select.’ If they are not marked as such, they are probably variable
outputs (see “About Variable-Level Audio Outputs” below). Outputs
from DVD players are almost always fixed.
Important: Jacks labeled CD, DVD/DVR, PHONO, or tape playback
(PB) are INPUTS and will not work with the transmitter.
Variable‑Level Audio Outputs
A variable-level output, such as a headphone jack or certain RCA-type
outputs, provides an audio signal that changes with the volume level
set on the audio source. As the volume of the audio source is adjusted
up and down, so is the audio signal strength sent to the transmitter.
This can affect the quality of sound generated by the headphones, and
may require an adjustment of the volume level of the audio source to
produce a signal strong enough for the transmitter.
Hints:
• On most bookshelf-type or compact stereo systems, inserting a
headphone plug into the headphone jack results in automatic cutoff of
the regular, or hard-wired speakers.

uS I n G Yo u r He a d p H o n e S
• Most TVs, regardless of age or price, have variable outputs. If you
are unsure which of your TV audio outputs is fixed, refer to the TV
instruction manual. Some TVs have outputs that can switch between
variable and fixed. When given a choice, fixed is always recommended.
Listen safely!
Enjoy your headphones at a safe volume. Avoid or limit the amount of
time you listen at higher volumes—permanent hearing loss may occur if
the headphone is used at too high a volume. If you experience a ringing
in your ears, or your own voice and other sounds seem muffled, stop
using the headphones and consult a hearing professional.
Battery life
Due to the chemistry of the headphones’ rechargeable battery,
required charging time may increase while the actual capacity of
the battery may decrease. If you have any questions regarding
the replacement of the built-in battery, please call toll-free

The following troubleshooting guide takes you through some of the more common

The headphones can be reset as well. If you experience persistent problems with the
headphones, see page 9 for reset instructions.
No sound
•
•
Make sure the transmitter’s power adapter is fully inserted into the wall outlet and
the power cord from the AC adapter is firmly connected to the transmitter power
input jack.
Check that the audio source component (stereo, TV, etc.) is turned on and
transmitting sound as it normally should. If you’re using a PC or DVD player, make
sure you’ve selected the correct audio output and that the sound is not muted.

tr o u B l e S H o o t I n G
•
Confirm that the headphones are turned on (the LED is blue) and tuned to the
transmitter. If the LED on the right headphone is flashing blue, the headphones
are not tuned to the transmitter. Press the link key on the headphones and on the
transmitter’s back panel to tune the headphones.
•
•
Check that the headphone volume is turned up.
If you’re using a variable output audio source (like a headphone jack or variable
output on a TV set), make sure the source component’s volume is set high enough
for the transmitter to detect.
•
If you are using a Tape 2 Monitor output from your receiver/amp as the audio output,
check that you have pressed the Tape Monitor/Tape 2 button on the front of the
receiver. This will turn on the Tape 2 outputs, which may not have been active.
Interrupted sound
•
Move closer to the transmitter with the headphones on. Sending the signal
through certain materials, such as glass, tile, and metal, can decrease the effective
transmitting distance of the system.
LEDs fail to light up
•
Make sure the headphones are charged and that the transmitter is properly
connected to the audio source. Then, move the headphones close to the transmitter
and press the headphone power button again.
Headphones shut off automatically
•
Check the LED on the right headphone. If it’s blinking, you’ve lost the transmitter’s
signal. Move closer to the transmitter. If you don’t see the LED, the headphones’
rechargeable battery needs to be recharged. Use the AC adapter to recharge the
headphones.
