Basic flow of operations
The unit
RQT8993
This unit uses the 2.4 GHz radio frequency
band (Bluetooth). However other wireless
equipment may use the same frequency. Be
sure to take note of the following to prevent
radio wave interference from other equipment.
10
■ Restriction of use
For use only in your country.
■ Range of use
The range of use is up to approximately 10 m
(30 ft.). The range may be less depending on
the structure of the building, the environment
and any obstacles between the receiver and
the transmitter. Such obstacles as reinforced
concrete walls and metal doors, in particular,
obstruct the transmitter’s signals.
■ Interference from other equipment
Due to radio interference, malfunctions such as
sound distortion may occur if the unit is placed
too close to other equipment. We recommend
keeping the unit as far away as possible from
the following devices:
RQT8993-P(RP-BT10P)0528.indd 10-11
Bluetooth devices other than this unit, wireless
LAN, microwaves, office automation devices,
digital cordless telephones and other electronic
devices
The unit is designed to automatically avoid
radio interference from these household
devices. However the sound will be broken
when radio interference occurs.
■ Using the unit
● Do not drop, hit or otherwise subject the
transmitter or receiver to strong shocks of
any kind. This may cause damage.
● Do not expose the unit to water or other
liquids as it may cause damage.
● Do not use near microwave ovens,
pacemakers or other industrial, chemical or
medical equipment.
● Do not use inside an aircraft, as this may
compromise the safety of the aircraft.
● Keep the ear pads, out of the reach of children
to prevent them from being swallowed.

Possible cause and suggested remedy
I can use the unit only for
a short time even after
charging.
•The unit may be usable just for a short time when its battery is first charged or when
it is charged after the unit has not been used for a prolonged period. The battery’s
charging capability will be restored after a few charges.
•The battery will discharge if the power switch is kept at the “on” setting.
•If the play time available is extremely short even after the battery has been charged,
it means that the rechargeable battery has reached the end of its service life (after
about 300 charges). For more information on replacing the rechargeable nickelhydrogen battery, consult with your dealer.

new one): Go to step 5.
 5, Press the transmitter button twice quickly.
When the pair setting has been re-registered, the transmitter lamp (blue) and

Charging is not terminated
even though the time for
a complete charging has
elapsed.
This process may take approximately 3 hours or so depending on the level of the
battery’s remaining charge.
Charging stops
immediately.
To prevent overcharging, repeated charging is not possible.
Before charging again after fully charging, use the unit for at least 20 to 30 minutes.
(If charging is restarted immediately after fully charging, charging will automatically
stop after about 1 minute.)

Do not play your earphones at a high volume. Hearing
experts advise against continuous extended play.
If you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce
volume or discontinue use.
Pay attention to the surrounding environment
(traffic) when using the earphones while walking.
Do not use while operating a motorized vehicle.
It may create a traffic hazard and is illegal in many
areas.
You should use extreme caution or temporarily
discontinue use in potentially hazardous situations.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing
“comfort level” adapts to higher volumes of sound.
So what sounds “normal” can actually be loud and
harmful to your hearing. Guard against this by
setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE
your hearing adapts.
To establish a safe level:
• Start your volume control at a low setting.
• Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it
comfortably and clearly, and without distortion.
Once you have established a comfortable sound level:
• Leave it there.
