5.

Adjust the volume to a comfortable listening level using the volume control dial. If
the headset is out of the range of the transmitter or the infrared sensors in the
headset are being blocked, no sound will come through the headset.

6.

We recommend turning the transmitter and headset off after each use except

when charging the headset when the headset should be off and the transmitter
should be on.

Regardless of what type of equipment you have and which installation instructions you
follow, when you connect the transmitter the sound will be heard either (1) through
your headset and television speakers, or (2) just through your headset. The following
instructions will apply to all five types of installation.

1. The sound from your television is heard from your headset and your television

speakers. If you want the sound to be heard only from the headset, you will need
to mute the television sound. If you simply turn the volume down all the way, you
may reduce the signal going to the television audio output jacks which will affect
the sound coming through your headset. To mute the television sound, press Mute
on your remote control. Or, if your TV has a speaker switch on the back panel, set
this switch to “OFF”.

If pressing “Mute” on your remote also turns off the sound from your headset, your
TV may have speaker options that you can access with your television's remote
control. Please refer to your television instruction manual to locate this control and
set it to “OFF”.

2. The sound from your television will only be heard through your headset and will

not be heard from the television speakers. If you want the sound to be heard from
the headset and the television speakers, connect the transmitter to your DVD
player, VCR, or cable box or use the microphone adapter (refer to Pg. 8).

NOTE: If you hear static or a radio signal from your headset, it may be due to the elec-
tric current to the transmitter. Unplug the AC adapter from the electrical outlet and
plug it into a surge protector. Then plug the surge protector into the electrical outlet.

If you are using your TV Listener J3 with an LCD or plasma television and are experienc-
ing static, connect the transmitter to your cable box instead of your television. Move
the transmitter as far from your television as possible while making sure it is still in the
line of sight of the headset.

There is no limit to the number of headsets that can be used with a single transmitter.
Please call us at 1-800-430-0222 to find out where you can purchase additional head-
sets.

Operating the System

1.

Place the transmitter at or close to your eye level when you are sitting. There

should be nothing obstructing the transmission of the infrared light rays from the
transmitter to the receiver in your headset (refer to Fig. 8). The transmitter must be
within 33 feet (10 meters) of the headset for the system to work properly.

NOTE: Avoid exposure to direct sunlight. Direct sunlight may interfere with the
reception. It is also subject to interference from treadmills.

2.

Turn the transmitter on by sliding the power switch to the “ON” position. Four red
lights on the front of the transmitter will illuminate.

3.

Turn the headset on by sliding the power switch to the “ON” position on the right

earpiece ( ). The red power indicator light will illuminate. To prevent possible
damage to your ears, be sure to lower the volume on the headset before putting
it on.

4.

Put the headset on making sure the right earpiece ( ) goes over your right ear
and the left earpiece ( ) goes over your left ear. Caution: To prevent possible
damage to your ears, be sure to lower the volume on the headset before putting
it on.
