When the headphones stop operating
properly, replace or recharge the batter-
ies.
Warnings:
• Do not dispose of the batteries in a
fire because they can explode.
• Do not open or mutilate a battery.
Swallowing a battery can be fatal.
• Be careful not to short the batteries
with conducting materials, such as
rings, bracelets, and keys. The bat-
teries or the conductor might over-
heat and burn.
• Do not attempt to charge alkaline
batteries.
Caution: When you replace the batter-
ies, use replacement batteries of the re-
quired type (AAA), available through
your local RadioShack store.
Important: This product
can use nickel-cadmium
rechargeable batteries.
At the end of a nickel-
cadmium battery's useful
life, it must be recycled or
disposed of properly. Contact your local,
county, or state hazardous waste man-
agement authorities for information on
recycling or disposal programs in your
area or call 1-800-843-7422. Some op-
tions that might be available are: munici-
pal curbside collection, drop-off boxes at
retailers such as your local RadioShack
store, recycling collection centers, and
mail-back programs.
Charging Rechargeable
Batteries
Before using your headphones for the
first time, you must charge the head-
phones’ batteries for at least 24 hours. If
the headphones' range decreases or
you hear no sound from the audio
source, recharge the batteries. It takes
12 to 14 hours to completely recharge
the batteries.
Follow these steps to charge the batter-
ies.
1. If necessary, press the headphones'
POWER ON/OFF button to turn off
the headphones.
Note: You cannot charge the batter-
ies with the headphones turned on.
2. Plug the supplied charging cable
into the headphones' CHARGE jack
on the left earpiece.
3. Plug the other end of the charging
cable into the transmitter base's
CHARGE jack. The indicator beside
the jack lights.
4. When charging is complete, unplug
the charging cable. The indicator
turns off.
