Place the headphones in the cradle on top of the transmitter. The indicator light on top of the transmitter fl ashes green when the headphones are charging. Charging the HeadsetIf you use the rechargeable batteries provided with the headphones, you should charge them before you use the headphones for the fi rst time. The batteries charge when the headphones are placed in the charging cradle on the transmitter as shown below. WARNING: To avoid risk of fi re or injury, DO NOT place the headphones in the charging cradle if you installed alkaline or other non-rechargeable batteries – this could cause the batteries to leak, which would damage the headphones.To charge the headphones: 1. Connect the AC adapter to the power jack on the back of the transmitter. Then plug the AC adapter into a standard wall outlet or surge protector. Note: This power adapter should be plugged in so that it stays vertical or lies fl at. Before using your headphones for the fi rst time, let them charge continuously for 16 hours.Notes about charging:• When the batteries are charged, remember to remove the headphone from charging cradle of the transmitter.• Never leave the batteries charging for more than 48 hours.Left headphone, side viewCharging contactTransmitter, top viewCharging pins
GETTING STARTED62. Plug the white and red connectors of the stereo audio cable included into the red and white AUDIO IN jacks on the back of the transmitter. Make sure you match the red connector to the red jack and the white to the white.3. Plug the other end of the stereo audio cable into the audio output or headphone jack on your MP3 player or other audio device.If your audio source has stereo RCA outputs: Connect the red and white plugs of the included stereo (R/L) RCA jack adapter to the audio source’s line out jacks. Then plug the 3.5mm jack of the included stereo audio cable into the adapter, and connect the stereo cable to the transmitter.Setting Up the TransmitterThe 2.4GHz digital wireless transmitter works with a wide variety of audio sources, from portable MP3 players to A/V receivers to DVD players or gaming systems. The way you set it up depends on the kind of output you want to use on your audio source.To connect the transmitter to your audio source: 1. Before you start, unplug the transmitter.4. Plug the transmitter back in.Note: High-output sources, such as DVD players or audio receivers/amplifi ers, may cause distortion if used at full volume with the transmitter. Try setting them at 1/2 or 2/3 volume.Transmitter (back panel)DC IN 6VPA I RR AUDIO IN L

The indicator light on the top of the transmitter turns blue when a signal is transmitting.2. Press the On/Off button on the right headphone. The headphones and transmitter should tune automatically in a matter of seconds—you should hear sound from the headphones. Use the volume controls on the bottom of the right headphone to adjust the headphone volume. If you don’t hear sound from the headphones: Make sure the indicator light on top of the transmitter is blue. If it is and you still don’t hear sound from the headphones, press the pair button on the back of the transmitter and the pair button on the right headphone simultaneously for three seconds. If the indicator light on top of the transmitter is not blue:Make sure the transmitter is plugged in and your audio source is connected to the transmitter and playing audio. If you’re using a variable-level audio output (something you can set the volume on), adjust the volume on your audio source. Then adjust the volume using the Volume wheel on the right earphone.Turning the Headphones OffWhile you hear sound coming from the headphones, press the On/Off button. Don’t forget to unplug the transmitter too!Right headphone, side viewOn/Off buttonVolume controls

USING YOUR HEADPHONES9PAIR allows you to link manually to the transmitter if they do not automatically link.Power button turns the headphones on and offVol controls increase or decrease the headphone volumeImportant Note About Audio OutputsIf possible, use a fi xed-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 fi xed.Important: Jacks labeled CD, DVD/DVR, PHONO, or tape playback (PB) are INPUTS and will not work with the transmitter.Right headphone, side view
USING YOUR HEADPHONES10Variable-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 fi xed, refer to the TV instruction manual. Some TVs have outputs that can switch between variable and fi xed. When given a choice, fi xed 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 muffl ed, stop using the headphones and consult a hearing professional.
TROUBLESHOOTING11The 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.• Make sure the transmitter’s power adapter is fully inserted into the wall outlet and the power cord from the AC adapter is fi rmly connected to the transmitter power input jack.• 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.• Confi rm that the headphones are turned on and that the transmitter is receiving audio—the transmitter’s indicator light should be blue. If the transmitter’s indicator light is blue and you still don’t hear sound from the headphones, press the pair button on the back of the transmitter and the pair button on the right headphone simultaneously for three seconds. • 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. No soundInterrupted 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.Distorted sound• High-output sources, such as DVD players or audio receivers/amplifi ers, may cause distortion if used at full volume with the transmitter. Try setting them at 1/2 or 2/3 volume.
