10 OPERATION
1. Switch on the headphones with the on/off switch.
The LED operation indicator ashes blue.
2. Operate your device (TV, audio device, ...) which you have connected
to the charging cradle and select a medium volume.
3. First set a low volume on the headphones and put the headphones on.
4. The sound sent via the charging cradle (base station) is transmitted
to the headphones via radio and played back. As soon as the
headphones receive the transmitted sound, the LED operation
indicator lights up constantly blue.
Volume
5. When connected with the audio cable, the volume can be adjusted
either via the connected device (TV, audio device,…) or with the
volume control ›VOLUME‹ on the headphones.
· Make sure that the volume on the connected device is not set too
low, otherwise the audio signal may be too weak for transmission
and the unit will switch o automatically (see ›Power saving mode‹).
· When connected with the optical cable, the volume can only be
adjusted via the volume control ›VOLUME‹ on the headphones.
6. If the battery becomes low, the blue LED power indicator on the
headphones ashes 5 times before the headphones switch o. Slide
the on/off switch to the ›OFF‹ position and charge the battery.
7. If you want to stop using the headphones, switch the on/off switch
on the headphones to the ›OFF‹ position (blue LED goes out) and
place the headphones back in the charging cradle.
8. After approx.11 minutes, the green LED on the charging cradle
ashes and after approx.15minutes the LED goes out.
9. If you do not use the unit for a longer period of time, disconnect the
base station from the mains.

11OPERATION
> Caution
Excessive volume can permanently damage your hearing. The volume of these
headphones can be set particularly high. Therefore, make sure that the volume is set
to a low level before putting on the headphones. Especially for people with healthy
hearing and for children, listening too loudly can cause irreparable hearing damage.
Balance
With the balance control on the headphones, you can adjust the sound
transmission between the left and right earphones as you wish:
· Turn the control to the left ›L‹ – the sound transmission
via the left earphone is amplied.
· Turn the control to the right ›R‹ – the sound transmission
via the right earphone is amplied.
Mute and sound amplifier
Interruption of the sound playback from the sound source
(audio device, TV set, etc.) / connection of the built-in microphone
forconversations:
· If you want to switch o the sound for a short time during the
headphone transmission, e.g. to conduct a conversation, press
the mute button on the headphones. The LED indicator on the
headphones lights up green.
· An acoustic signal ›beep-beep‹ is audible and the reception of
theaudio signal from the transmitter is interrupted.
· At the same time, the ambient noise received via the built-in
microphone on the headphones is amplied. This provides hearing
amplication during communication.
· If you want to end the communication and enjoy the audio
transmission again, press the mute button on the headphones again.
The LED operation indicator on the headphones lights up blue again.

12 OPERATION
Interference during playback
If interference noises occur during playback,
this may be due to thefollowing reasons:
· The battery in the headphones is too weak: Recharge the battery.
· The distance between the headphones and the charging cradle
(base station) is too great: Reduce the distance.
· The volume of the connected device is too low:
Increase the volume of the connected device
(TV set, audio device, MP3 player, etc.).
Synchronising the charging cradle and
headphones
It can happen that the radio connection between the charging
cradle and the headphones is disturbed and therefore
thetransmission fails.
To synchronise the radio connection, proceed as follows:
· Disconnect the charging cradle (base station) from the mains by
unplugging the mains adapter.
· Switch on the headphones with the on/off switch (position ›ON‹).
· Press and hold the mute button for approx. 5 seconds.
· The blue LED indicator ashes quickly.
· Reconnect the charging cradle (base station) to the mains adapter.
· The charging cradle and headphones are automatically
synchronised and the blue LED operating indicator lights up
constantly again.

13OPERATION
Energy-saving mode, automatic switch-off
The unit is equipped with an automatic switch-o function to avoid
unnecessary energy consumption.
> Note:
This function is regulated by an EU standard and switching o does not represent a
technical defect!
If the unit is not used for a longer period of time, it should be completely
disconnected from the mains to save energy.
· The headphones automatically switch to stand-by mode if no audio
signal is received for approx. 5 minutes (or if the audio signal is too
weak for proper reception).
The blue LED operation indicator ashes. If during this time the
audio signal is reactivated or the volume on the connected unit is
increased again and the headphones receive an audio signal again,
the transmission is continued.
The blue LED operation indicator lights up again.
· If no audio signal is sent to the headphones for approx.10minutes or
if the audio signal is too weak for reception, the headphones switch
o automatically.
The blue LED operation indicator goes out.
· If you want to use the headphones again, rst switch them o
(on/off switch to position ›OFF‹), and then switch them on again
(on/o switch to position ›ON‹).
