FCC and Industry Canada Statements
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any
interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can
radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions,
may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on,
the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver
is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Per FCC Requirements, this transmitter is equipped with a special antenna connector to prevent
the user from using antennas that have not been tested to comply with FCC regulations. Only use
antennas and antenna accessories supplied by Phonic Ear.
The term “IC:” before the radio certification number only signifies that Industry of Canada
technical specifications were met.
Caution: Any changes or modifications to this equipment not expressly approved by Phonic Ear
could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

warning
The antenna is an electrical conductor. Contact with power lines can
result in death or serious injury. Do
not install the antenna, supporting
mast, or tower where there is any
possibility of contact with a highvoltage arc from power cables or
service drops. Outdoor antennas
should be grounded against lightning strikes. Consult the National
Electrical Code for further details.
The large area antenna is only available
with a specially tuned version of the
560T (model # PE560T-LA). This is
done to insure the system meets FCC
and Industry Canada Requirements.
This antenna should only be installed
by a qualified sound contractor or factory trained professional.

troubleshooting
no sound
• If using the 500R, verify the receiver is tuned correctly (see user instructions section 8b )
• If using the 506R, verify the channel selected on the receiver matches the channel selected on
the transmitter (see user instructions section 8c )
• If using 500R, check if the receiver power indicator light is on; if unlit, or flashing, replace or
recharge receiver batteries.
• Check if the transmitter is on (the front panel display window should be lighted).
• Verify the wall transformer is plugged into the transmitter and into a working wall outlet.
flashing light on receiver
• Replace or recharge batteries
sound too low/poor quality sound
• Check the transmitter line level indicators located in the display window. 2-3 bars should peak
with the audio signal. If no bars or only one bar appears, increase the volume on the sound
