Set the head tracking function to ON. (Only when an item other than “OFF”
is selected in step 6 on page 19.)
After the head tracking system stabilizes, playback sound can be heard.
After this, even if you turn your head in any directions, the sound will be heard as if from
the front.
Notes
• Always wear the headphones vertically (as shown on page 17) so that the head
tracking system will be stable.
• Whenever the HEAD TRACKING switch is set to ON, and whenever you put on the
headphones with its power on, always wait for 2 seconds without moving your head as
the head tracking system newly stabilizes each time.
• If the sound from the headphones (while facing your TV) seems to be different from the
actual direction of your TV, face forwards and press the RESET button on the
headphones.
The headphones automatically turn off when they are taken off

When not in use, be careful not to hang the
headphones in such a way as to activate the
Auto Power On function, as this will
consume battery power.
To check the remaining battery power
Pull up the self-adjusting band and check
the POWER indicator. The batteries are still
serviceable when the POWER indicator
lights red.
Charge the rechargeable batteries or use
new alkaline batteries if the POWER
indicator flashes and an intermittent beep
sound is heard from the headphones.
Transition time between modes
When pressing buttons on the processor to change to new modes, the transition time
between modes may vary. This is due to differences in system control between
modes.
