Using the System
Step 1 Using the Headset
1. Remove the headset from the charging cradle 8 of the transmitter.
2.The BALANCE control is located on the back of the headset. The balance comes set equal to both ears. To change the balance of volume to the right and left ears, insert the balance control tool into the opening and turn the tool towards the ear you want to increase the volume to.
3.The writing on the front of the headset should face away from your body. The infrared signal is received on the front of the headset.
4.Using both hands, gently separate the bow arms and place earpieces into each ear (similar to placing a stethoscope).
5.The VOLUME control 1 will be located on the RIGHT side. Rotate the dial to turn ON the headset and set the volume to your comfort level.
6. The TONE control 2 (bass and treble) will be located on the LEFT side. Rotate the dial to adjust the tone to your preference.
The TV Ears headset receives an invisible infrared signal from the stack that is connected to the television. Be certain that the infrared diodes 6 located on the front of the stack are in direct sight with the front of the headset to receive the signal. The infrared signal from the stack to the headset should be clear of any obstruction (plants, books, furniture, etc.). The infrared signal cannot pass through walls or solid objects. The headset can only pick up the infrared signal in the same room as the stack.
Step 2 Removing the Headset after use
Always use two hands to place and remove your headset from your ears. Using one hand may loosen or tug on the bow arms and damage your headset.
1.Turn the headset OFF by rotating the VOLUME dial 1 , reducing the volume until you feel or hear a click.
2.Using both hands, gently separate the bow arms from your ears.
3.Remove the headset by lowering it under your chin.
4.Place the headset into the charging cradle of the transmitter.
