4Powering the TransmitterThe 2.4GHz wireless transmitter runs on regular AC power or on 3 AAA batteries (included), so you can plug it in or install the batteries and take it with you. The choice is yours.To install batteries in the transmitter:1. Locate the battery compartment on the bottom of the transmitter. Push the compartment door in the direction of the arrow to open the compartment.2. Insert the three AAA batteries provided. The compartment is marked to show how the batteries should be oriented. Make sure to follow these markings, with the + and – ends in the correct positions.3. Replace the battery compartment cover.Important: Do not mix batteries with different chemistry types (for example, a zinc battery with an alkaline battery). Do not mix new and used batteries. Do not leave batteries installed in the product when not in use for long periods. Always remove old, weak or worn-out batteries promptly and recycle or dispose of them in accordance with Local and National Regulations.Note: The transmitter does not recharge batteries.To plug in the transmitter:1. Connect the AC power adapter to the DC IN power supply jack on the transmitter's back panel.2. Plug the adapter into an electrical outlet.Important: This power unit is intended to be correctly oriented in a vertical or floor mount position.Transmitter (back panel)LINK ON/OFFDC INLINE INAC power adapterTransmitter (bottom)

7Important Note About Audio OutputsIf 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.About Variable-Level Audio OutputsA 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.• 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 lifeDue 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 1-800-732-6866 or visit www.araccessories.com.
8The following troubleshooting guide takes you through some of the more common problems associated with the installation and/or operation of a wireless system. If the problem persists, please call toll-free 1-800-732-6866 or visit www.araccessories.com.Issue: Cause and solution:No sound • If you’re using the transmitter with the AC power adapter, make sure it is fully inserted into the wall outlet and the power cord from the AC adapter is firmly connected to the transmitter power input jack.• If you’re using the transmitter with batteries, check to see that the batteries are fresh and inserted with correct polarity (+, –). Try replacing the batteries if you think they’ve run out of power.• 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.• Confirm that the headphones are turned on (the LED is blue) and tuned to the transmitter. If the LED on the left 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.• When using battery power in the transmitter, make sure the batteries are fresh and replace if necessary. Plug in the transmitter using the AC power adapter if there’s an outlet available.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 left 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. TroubleshootingThe headphones can be reset as well. If you experience persistent problems with the headphones, see page 6 for reset instructions.
