Troubleshooting
The following troubleshooting guide takes you through some of the more common problems associated with the installation and/or operation of these wireless headphones. If the problem persists, please call
issue | cause and solution |
No Sound | Check that the transmitter AC power adapter (O) is fully inserted into the wall outlet and the power cord from the AC |
| adapter is firmly connected to the transmitter power input jack (N). |
|
|
| Confirm that the headphones are turned ON and tuned to the transmitter — the amber LINK indicator light should be |
| glowing steadily. |
|
|
| Confirm that the mute function is off by pressing the MUTE button (F) on and off. The MUTE indicator light (G) should |
| be turned off. |
|
|
| Check that the AAA batteries are fresh and inserted with correct polarity (+, |
|
|
| Check that the audio source component (stereo, TV, etc.) is turned on and transmitting sound as it normally should. |
|
|
| Check that the headphones volume is turned up (H). |
|
|
| 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. |
|
|
No Sound/ | Check that the audio level indicator light (J) is flickering intermittently. If the light is not intermittent and you know you |
Distortion/Static | are using a fixed level audio source, play music on your audio source while adjusting the input level control on the back |
| of the transmitter. Adjust the level control until the light begins to blink intermittently again. |
| OR |
|
|
| If the transmitter is connected to a variable output, make sure the input level control (L) is turned up (all the way to the |
| right — your right when looking at the front of the transmitter), and adjust the volume on the audio source up or down |
| as necessary to make the light flicker intermittently. |
|
|
| Change the position of the channel select switch (K) to change the operating frequency. The headphones will detect the |
| loss of signal and retune automatically. However, you can also press the ON/OFF/SCAN button once to make the |
| headphones retune. |
|
|
| Change the location of the transmitter. Place it as high and away from obstructions as possible. Avoid placing the |
| transmitter directly on top of or behind a TV. |
|
|
| Move the transmitter and headphones closer together. Sending the signal through certain materials, such as glass, tile, |
| and metal, can decrease the effective transmitting distance of the system. |
