About sending RF signals
The transmitter starts sending RF signals
automatically when it detects an audio signal from
the connected component. Note that;
– Noise may occur depending on the transmitter
position and room conditions. It is recommended
to place the transmitter in a location that
produces the clearest sound.
– If the transmitter is placed on a metallic table,
you may hear noise, or the reception range may
decrease. Do not place on a metallic table.
If no signal or low signal is
input for about 4 minutes
When no signal is input for about 4 minutes, the
transmitter turns off automatically*. The POWER
indicator of the transmitter blinks for 4 minites,
then turns off. The transmitter restarts after
receiving an audio signal again.
The transmitter may also turn off if low signal is
input for about 4 minutes. In this case, raise the
volume of the connected A/V component within
the range where the sound is not distorted, then
lower the volume of the headphones.
* If signal noise is output from the connected A/V
component, the transmitter may not turn off,
even when no audio signal is input.
Start playback of the A/V component.
Wear the headphones.
Before listening
To reduce the risk of hearing damage, first lower the volume.
