ference from these devices could affect
your system’s performance.
• Position the transmitter away from large
metal objects, as these could block your
transmitter’s signals.
• Try several locations for the transmitter.
Select the location that provides the best
performance.
Your system’s overall performance depends
on your home’s construction method, the oth-
er devices near the system, and other radio
frequency sources in your home (such as
cordless telephones).
Using AC Power
Use the supplied 12V, 250mA AC adapter to
connect the transmitter to AC power.
Cautions:
• You must use a Class 2 power source
that supplies 12 volts DC and delivers at
least 250mA. Its center tip must be set to
positive and its plug must fit the transmit-
ter's
DC 12V
jack. The supplied adapter
meets these specifications. Using an
adapter that does not meet these specifi-
cations could damage the transmitter or
the adapter.
• Always connect the AC adapter to the
transmitter before you connect it to AC
power. When you finish, disconnect the
adapter from AC power before you dis-
connect it from the transmitter.
Plug the supplied AC adapter’s barrel plug
into the transmitter’s
DC 12V
jack, then plug
the adapter into a standard AC outlet.
Charging the Rechargeable Battery
Packs
To power the headphones, use the supplied
nickel-metal-hydride rechargeable battery
packs. There are two batteries supplied, so
you can alternately charge one and use the
other.
Your transmitter has a built-in charger to
charge the rechargeable battery pack. When
the headphones are not in use, the battery
pack can be continuously charged over sever-
al days.
Before using your headphones for the first
time, you must charge the battery pack for at
least 24 hours. If the headphones’ range de-
creases, you do not hear sound from the au-
dio source, or the headphones’ POWER
indicator is blinking, recharge the batteries. It
takes 12 to 14 hours to completely recharge
the batteries.
To charge the
battery pack,
plug it into the
transmitter’s
charging portal.
The battery pack
automatically be-
gins charging
and the
CHARGE indica-
tor lights.
When charging is complete, unplug the bat-
tery pack. The indicator turns off.
Note:
You can charge the battery pack with
the transmitter set to on or off.

partment
