Attention Plasma Screen TV Owners Plasma screen television sets create a field of disturbance that may interfere with the TV Ears system. We offer a 6 foot Extension Cord which can work with either the Audio Cord or the Multi-Use Power Microphone. This Extension Cord allows you to move the TV Ears Transmitter / Charger away from the plasma screen and outside the field of disturbance. This field of disturbance is usually no more than five feet in front of the plasma screen.

Turn the volume knob to your left until it clicks the headset “on” and continue to rotate the dial to adjust the volume to your liking. The other dial on the headset adjust the tone (base/treble). Turn off the headset by rotating the volume dial to your right until it clicks off.
