AirBorne Wi-5.8GHz Instrument
Safety instructions
Intended use
This device is used for the wireless transmission of audio signals. Any other use or use
under other operating conditions is considered to be improper and may result in per-
sonal injury or property damage. No liability will be assumed for damages resulting
from improper use.
Danger for children
Ensure that plastic bags, packaging, etc. are disposed of properly and are
not within reach of babies and young children. Choking hazard! Ensure
that children do not detach any small parts (e.g. knobs or the like) from
the unit. They could swallow the pieces and choke! Never let unattended
children use electrical devices.
Notes on wireless transmission
The system works in the frequency range 5.729 GHz… 5.820 GHz and is free of
charge and registration worldwide.
This device utilizes frequencies that are not harmonized within the European Union
(EU) and therefore may only be used in certain EU member states. In all European
countries, the frequencies used for the transmission of audio signals are strictly regu-
lated. Before you start, make sure the frequencies are allowed in the respective coun-
try and check whether the operation must be reported to the appropriate authority.

• Make sure that transmitter and receiver are both tuned to the same channel.
• Never set multiple transmitters to the same channel.
• Make sure that there are no metal objects between the transmitter and receiver.
• Avoid interference from other radio or in-ear systems.
Incorrect handling of lithium batteries can result in injury
• In the event of a short circuit, overheating or mechanical damage, lithium batteries
can cause severe injuries.
• When handled correctly and appropriately lithium batteries pose no risk.
• Store lithium batteries in a cool, dry place, ideally in the original packaging.
• Store lithium batteries away from heat sources (e.g. radiators or sunlight). Lithium
batteries are hermetically sealed. Never attempt to open a lithium battery.
• If the battery housing is damaged small amounts of the electrolyte may leak out. If
this should happen, seal the lithium battery in airtight packaging and wipe up the
traces of electrolyte using absorbent paper towels. You must wear protective rub-
ber gloves when doing so. Clean your hands and the aected surface thoroughly
with cold water.
• Never attempt to recharge non-rechargeable lithium batteries.When charging lith-
ium batteries you must use a suitable charging device intended for the purpose.
• Before disposing of the device remove the lithium batteries. Protect used lithium
batteries against potential short circuits, e.g. by covering the poles with adhesive
tape.
• Only use powder extinguishers or other suitable extinguishing agents to extin-
guish a burning lithium battery.
Possible damage to lithium-ion batteries through incorrect storage
By deep discharge, lithium-ion batteries can be permanently damaged or lose
some of their capacity.
Before long breaks, charge the batteries to around 50 % of their capacity and then
switch o the device. Store the device at room temperature or cooler in an envi-
ronment as dry as possible. If the batteries are stored for a longer period, recharge
them to 50 % every three months.
Fully charge the batteries only shortly before use at room temperature.
Where to use the product
Never use the product
• in direct sunlight
• in conditions of extreme temperature or humidity
• in extremely dusty or dirty areas
• at locations where the unit can become wet
• near magnetic elds
General handling
• To prevent damage, never use force when operating the switches and controls.
• Never immerse the appliance in water. Just wipe it with a clean dry cloth. Do not
use liquid cleaners such as benzene, thinners or ammable cleaning agents.
Electromagnetic compatibility other electrical equipment
Using the device near radios or TV sets may cause interference. Then increase the
distance between the devices.
Keep foreign substances from the unit!
Keep the device away from containers with liquids. Should any liquid get into the
unit, this could lead to its destruction or re. Be sure not to let any metal objects
into the unit.

Using the product
1. To avoid interference, do not operate the device near other wireless devices,
such as WiFi routers or the like.
2. Fully charge the batteries in transmitter (black) and receiver (white) prior to
initial use using the Duo-pin USB charging cable. When the device is switched
o, the LEDs indicate the loading progress.
Duo-Pin USB charging cable
Batterie weak approx. 50% charged approx. 75% charged Batterie fully charged
When the device is switched on, the LEDs light up to indicate the charging
process. To maintain the charge capacity, the batteries must be recharged
every 3 months even when not in use. If a low battery is displayed, there will be
approximately 10 minutes left to run. At the latest then the built-in battery must
be charged.
3. To switch on transmitter and receiver, press and hold their on / o switches
(POWER).
4. Each LED on the devices stands for one of the 4 transmission channels. Select
the same transmission channel on the transmitter and receiver by pressing
the ID channel selection button. When the channel LED is solid, that channel
is ready for use. If the channel LED ashes, radio signals are already being de-
tected on this frequency and radio interference is therefore to be expected. To
establish the radio connection (pairing), press and hold the ID buttons of both
devices for 5 - 7 seconds. When the channel LEDs of both devices stop ashing,
the radio set is ready for use.
5. Fold the plug into a suitable position for the desired use. Plug the transmitter
into the 1/4" jack socket of the instrument whose signal is to be transmitted.
6. Plug the receiver into the 1/4" jack input of an amplier, mixer or eects device.
The distance between transmitter and receiver must not exceed 35m. If the
radio transmission proves to be susceptible to interference, reduce the distance.
7. When using several radio sets (max. 4) within the transmission range, each set
must work on a dierent radio channel. However, the transmission signal from
one transmitter can also be received by several receivers. For example, two
ampliers can be fed by one transmitter at the same time to generate a stereo
sound image.
8. To switch o transmitter and receiver, press and hold their ON / OFF switches
(POWER). The receiver switches itself o automatically if it has not received a
signal from the transmitter for 30 minutes.

accordance with local regulations for the disposal of hazardous waste. Use the
existing collection points for this.
Dispose lithium batteries only in discharged condition. Remove replaceable
lithium batteries from the device before disposal. Protect used lithium batter-
ies from short circuits, for example by covering the poles with adhesive tape.
Permanently installed lithium batteries must be disposed of together with the
device. Please inquire about a suitable acceptance point.
