Power supply preparations: Headphones

If the OPR/CHARGE lamp does not glow red

Check that the left and right sides of the headphones are correctly placed on the left and right sides of the transmitter.

Check that the charging terminals on the headphones and transmitter are touching each other. Adjust them if they are not touching.

●When there is dirt on the charging terminals of the headphones or the transmitter, remove it gently with a cotton bud, etc.

To charge the battery after using the headphones

Put the headphones back on the transmitter. The OPR/CHARGE lamp glows red and charging begins.

To check the remaining battery power

Pull the free-adjusting band i and check if the OPR lamp j on the right housing

Connections

●Before connecting, turn off the digital or analog equipment.

●After connecting the digital or analog equipment to the transmitter, connect the AC adaptor (supplied)

( page 6 [Charging] step 1)

●Refer/Read to the operating instructions of the connected equipment.

kis dim or off. This means that the battery has run down and should be charged

or replaced.

If the sound is distorted, intermittent or there is excessive background noise while using the headphones, the battery should be charged or replaced.

The service life for the supplied rechargeable battery

The supplied nickel-metal hydride rechargeable battery can be recharged approximately 300 times. If the operation time of the battery becomes extremely short after charging, the battery’s service life has reached the end. Be sure to

To DIGITAL IN 1 or DIGITAL IN 2 terminal

Optical digital cable (supplied) Remove the plug caps and insert the cable ﬁrmly into the correct terminals.

Optical digital cable (optical mini plug) (not included)

Equipment with an optical DIGITAL AUDIO OUT terminal e.g. a DVD player

Equipment with an optical mini DIGITAL AUDIO OUT terminal e.g. a portable DVD player

replace it with the dedicated rechargeable battery RP-BP6000 (optional).

The power turns off automatically when you remove the headphones.

(Auto power on/off function)

Do not pull up the free-adjusting band i when not using the headphones. This may cause the auto power on/off function to switch the headphones back on and battery power to run down.

Using alkaline dry cell batteries (not included)

Use “LR6, AA” alkaline dry cell batteries. Put the 2 alkaline dry cell batteries into the headphones in the same way

as described in [Inserting the supplied nickel-metal hydride rechargeable battery] ( page 6). You cannot charge dry cell batteries even if you put the headphones on the transmitter.

Operating time for the dry cell battery

Battery type	Operating time ※1
Panasonic Alkaline batteries	Approx. 6 hours ※2

※1At 1 kHz, 1 mW + 1 mW output.

※2Operating times may differ depending on the temperature of the surrounding environment and operating conditions.

Optical digital cable (optical mini plug) (not included)

When connecting the optical DIGITAL AUDIO OUT terminal of, for example, a portable DVD player or portable CD player to the transmitter’s DIGITAL IN 1 or 2 terminal, use the optional digital cable (mini plug to angular plug) or similar.

For your reference

※1Operation is not guaranteed when connecting to a computer’s optical DIGITAL AUDIO OUT terminal.

※2When the connected equipment supports PCM output only, the surround sound will become DOLBY PRO LOGIC II.

Connecting an amplifier etc.

If you connect optical digital output equipment to the DIGITAL IN 1 and DIGITAL IN 2 terminals and an AV ampliﬁer (not included) to the DIGITAL OUT terminal, you can switch the input without changing the optical digital cable.

●You can select the signal input to this unit and the signal output to the connected equipment at the same time with the INPUT SELECT control. When ANALOG is selected, the signal input to DIGITAL 2 is output to the

connected equipment (AV ampliﬁer, etc.). ( page 4)

●The input signal cannot be switched if the AC adaptor is not connected to the transmitter. Likewise, no signal will come out to the DIGITAL OUT terminal.

Using an optical digital cable

●Do not let falling objects subject the optical digital cable to vibration or shock.

●Hold the plugs in your hands and carefully connect or disconnect the optical digital cable.

●If the ends of the optical digital cable become dirty or dusty, efﬁciency will decrease. Keep them clean.

●For safety reasons, attach plug caps and do not bend the optical digital cable too much.

The optical digital cable’s minimum bending radius is 25 mm (1 in.).
