How do I set up the TV Wireless Headphones?

Plug the included AC adapter into the DC 5V jack on the back of the transmitter base, and then plug the other end into an AC outlet. Slide the Audio Signal switch on the back of the transmitter base to the ON position. If the blue power lower light illuminates, the unit is receiving power.

How do I charge the headphones?

Make sure the transmitter base is plugged in. Slide the Audio Signal switch on the back of the transmitter base to the OFF position. Turn off the power on the TV Wireless Headphones, and place them on the transmitter base. The power light on the transmitter base will turn RED while the headphones are charging. The power light on the transmitter base will turn BLUE when the headphones are fully charged or in use. Store your TV Wireless Headphones on the base when not in use. For optimum performance, the TV Wireless Headphones must be fully charged before the first use, which can take 5 hours.

How can I connect the TV Wireless Headphones to my TV?

The TV Wireless Headphones can be connected to the TV three different ways:

• Headphone Jack: Use the included 3.5mm audio cable. Plug one end into the TV headphone jack, and plug the other end into the Audio In jack on the back of the transmitter base.
• Audio Out: If your TV has red and white Audio Out jacks (also called RCA jacks), connect the included RCA to 3.5mm adapter cable to the Audio Out jacks on your TV. Then connect the included 3.5mm cable to the adapter, and plug the other end of the 3.5mm cable into the Audio In jack on the back of the transmitter base.
• Digital Optical Cable: If your TV does not have a headphone jack or Audio Out jacks, use the optical output on your TV. This jack is also called “optical audio,” “TOSLINK” or “Digital Audio Out (Optical).” Plug the included fiber optic cable into this jack on your TV, and then plug the other end into the Optical input on the back of the transmitter base. Make sure the shape of the Digital Optical Cable aligns with the shape of the jack.

After connecting the transmitter base to the TV, what do I do next?

Turn on the power on both the transmitter base and your TV. Then turn on the TV. The Audio light on the transmitter base will turn BLUE. Make sure your TV is not on mute.

How do I use the TV Wireless Headphones?

Press the Power button on the TV Wireless Headphones. If the headphones are receiving a signal from the transmitter base, the Audio light on the headphones will be BLUE. If there is no signal, the Audio light will be RED. Place the headphones on your head. Adjust the volume using the Vol+ and Vol- buttons on the left earcup.

Can I use more than one pair of headphones at the same time?

Yes, you can use more than 1 pair of headphones (maximum of 8 headphones) connected with the 2.4 G transmitter base at the same time. To connect with more than one pair of headphones, press and hold the scan button on the transmitter base and the headphones at the same time.

What is the auto shutoff feature?

To conserve power, your TV Wireless Headphones will power off automatically if they do not detect an audio signal after 15 minutes. If this happens, simply press the Power button on the headphones to reactivate them. To protect the battery, the TV Wireless Headphones will turn off automatically when the lithium battery power level drops below 2.7V. If this happens, return the headphones to the charging base to recharge.

How can I use the TV Wireless Headphones as wired headphones?

For wired use, connect the included 3.5mm audio cable to the Audio In jack on the headphones. Plug the other end into your mobile device. Be sure headphones are powered off when using them as wired headphones to conserve battery power. TV Wireless Headphones will not pick up wireless audio signals while the audio cable is plugged into the Audio In jack. When you want to watch TV again, make sure you unplug the 3.5mm audio cable.
