10. Charge on/off indicator
5. Installation
1. Connect the stereo audio signal to the IR transmitter with
the HiFi cable, as shown in Figure 2.
2. Insert the DC connector of the AC/DC adaptor into the
12V DC input connector on the rear of the IR transmitter,
as shown in figure 2.
3. Ensure that the rated voltage of the AC/DC adaptor is the
same as the mains voltage before plugging it into the mains
power wall outlet.
4. Insert two rechargeable batteries (R6. AA ) into the
battery compartments as shown in figure 3. ensuring that
the polarity is correct.
5. Note : Before using the IR headphone for the first time,

6. Operation
1. Switch on the IR transmitter and place it at the same
height or slightly higher than the reception height of the IR
headphone.
2. Position the LEDs towards the listening area, ensuring that
there are no obstacles in between.
3. Switch the IR headphone on.
4. Set the volume control to maximum on the IR headphone.
5. While listening to your IR headhone. adjust the volume of
the signal source to the headphone’s maximum acceptable
sound level.
6. Adjust volume control of the IR stereo headphone to a
comfortable listening level.
7. Recharging
1. Switch off the power of the headphone before charging.
2. Note : Before using the IR headphone for the first time,
please ensure that the batteries are fully charged (for 16
hours).This will guarantee a longer operating lifetime of
the batteries.
3. Connect the recharge input on the headphone with the
charge output on the transmitter via the recharge cable,
see figure 4.
4. The charge indication LED on the headphone will start
blinking to indicate that the batteries are charging (slow
blinking _ almost fully charged).
5. When the batteries are fully charged, the charge indication
LED will light continuously.
8. Positioning of IR transmitter
1. Place the IR transmitter unit so that the IR window
approximately foces the centre of your listening area, see
figure 5.
2. Because IR light travels in a straight line, place the IR
transmitter at the same height, or slightly higher than the
reception height of the IR headphone.
3. High IR light content such as sunlight and bright
incandescent indoor lighting may degrade the audio signal
and cause interference. If you experience such problems,
simply move the system to a darker area.
