Turtle Beach X4 X4 Volume Settings, Safety Notice

X4 Volume Settings

The X4 system has three volume control settings that interact in the following manner:

Transmitter Volume Control for analog inputs (located on the back of the transmitter)

This controls only the volume of the stereo analog inputs and has no effect on the transmitter digital input volume. That means, if the Xbox is connected to the transmitter’s digital input, the game volume will not be affected by this volume control. This volume control is only used when the analog inputs are being used (for example if you’ve connected your TV set to the transmitter) and in most cases it would be set to maximum. If you’re using the transmitter analog inputs and hear distortion in the headphones, it could be caused by the input signal overloading the X4 transmitter. If that happens, turn down the transmitter volume control to reduce the analog input level until the distortion is corrected.

Headphone Game Volume Control (located on the headphones)

This volume control sets the volume of the game sound transmitted to the headphones. It has no effect on the Xbox Live chat volume, which is set independently as described below. If you’re listening to an analog signal connected to the X4 transmitter (for example, if you’ve connected your TV to the transmitter), set the transmitter analog volume control as loud as possible for distortion-free sound and adjust the headphone volume to a comfortable level.

XBOX Live Chat Volume Control (located on the Xbox controller puck)

This controls the chat level heard in the headphones during an Xbox Live gaming session. Adjust the chat level with this control and adjust the game sound level with the volume control on the headphones. The volume control on the headphones has no effect on the chat volume level, so even if you turn the game volume control all the way down, you’ll still hear the chat signal if the puck volume control is turned up.

Safety Notice

Be careful when turning up the headphones volume control. Before placing the headphones over your ears, set the volume control to minimum, then slowly increase until you reach a comfortable level.

Use only the supplied power adapter. Failure to use the correct power adapter can result in fire and permanent damage to the transmitter unit.

Do not over-drive the headphones. Like any speakers, playing the sound too loud on the headphones may cause damage to both the headphones and your ears. Please take care to listen at moderate levels.

To avoid potential damage while transporting the headphones, always disconnect the “puck” from the XBOX controller.

WARNING: Long term exposure to loud music or other sounds in headphones may cause hearing damage. Avoid extreme volume levels when using headphones, especially for extended periods. Over time, your ears adapt to the volume level, so a level that may not cause initial discomfort might still damage your hearing.

To avoid risk of electrical shock, do not remove the transmitter cover. There are no user- serviceable parts inside. Refer servicing to qualified service personnel.
