OPERATION

LISTENING SAFELY

To protect your hearing, follow these
guidelines when you use headphones.

• Since the headphones’ receiver

makes a popping noise each time
you turn it on or off, always turn on
the headphones’ receiver before
putting on the headphones.
Always remove them before you
turn the receiver off.

• Set the volume to the lowest set-

ting before you begin listening.
After you begin listening, adjust
the volume to a comfortable level.

• Do not listen at extremely high

volume levels. Extended high-
volume listening can lead to per-
manent hearing loss.

• Once you set the volume, do not

increase it. Over time, your ears
adapt to the volume level, so a
volume level that does not cause
discomfort might still damage your
hearing.

USING THE SYSTEM

1. Turn on your audio source.

2. If you connected the transmitter to

an audio source’s headphone jack
(or a jack that is controlled by the
audio sources volume control), set
the audio source’s volume control
to the desired level first (about
midway), then rotate 

LEVEL

 on

the transmitter until the indicator
at the front of the transmitter
flashes. If the indicator does not
flash, increase the volume of the
source until the indicator flashes.

If you connected the transmitter to
an audio source’s LINE OUTPUT
jack (or a jack that is not con-
trolled by the audio source’s vol-
ume control), rotate 

LEVEL

 until

the indicator flashes.

Note: Some audio sources might
not make the indicator flash. For
such sources, simply rotate

LEVEL

 all the way to the left.
