8. Transmitter installation, fig. 4 + 5 + 6
Warning
• Only connect the product to a socket that has been
approved for the device. The socket must be installed
close to the product and easily accessible.
• Disconnect the product from the network using the power
button – if this is not available, unplug the power cord
from the socket.
• When using a multi-socket power strip, make sure that
the sum power draw of all the connected devices does not
exceed its maximum throughput rating.
• If you will not be using the product for a long period of
time, disconnect it from mains power.
• Connect the power supply to the power socket on the rear
side of the transmitter (fig. 5). To aid in finding the correct
socket on the charging station, it is coloured yellow to
match. It is connected to the power supply in a later step.
You now have 3 options for connecting:
A) Analogue audio connection, e.g. of a TV/hi-fi via 3.5-mm
stereo minijack or an RCA adapter cable
B) Optical digital connection of e.g. a TV/hi-fi/soundbar via
Toslink cable
C) Direct Bluetooth connection of a TV/hi-fi/soundbar to the
stethoset headphones
Attach cables according to the type of connection you wish to use.
8.1 Wired connection options
8.1.1 Analogue audio connection via stereo minijack or
RCA connector (fig. 4 + 6)
• The stereo minijack is often used to connect the headphones
to a TV/hi-fi set. Simply connect one end of the stereo mini-
jack cable to the headphone output of the TV set and the
other end to the socket on the transmitter/charging station.
To aid in finding the correct socket on the charging station
(labelled no. 5 in fig. 4), it is coloured blue to match.
• RCA cables are often used for external audio outputs of
e.g. set-top boxes, hi-fi or TV sets to provide a direct audio
signal (usually indicated by sockets coloured white and red).
Connect the stereo minijack cable (blue plug) and the RCA
adapter cable (red/white plugs): Insert the RCA plugs into
the corresponding audio source (e.g. hi-fi, set-top box or TV).
The colours indicate the right and left channels. Red always
indicates the right channel. Connect the other end (blue ste-
reo minijack cable) to the socket of the transmitter/charging
station. To aid in finding the correct socket on the charging
station, it is coloured blue to match (socket no. 5 in fig. 4).
8.1.2 Digital audio connection via Toslink/ODT cable:
Connection by digital optical audio cable provides the highest
sound quality of any cable connection (with no delay between
the image and the sound). Remove the dust protector caps
from both ends of the cable. Then connect one end to the TV/
hi-fi/soundbar and the other end to the transmitter/charging
station. Please note that the plugs have guides. To aid in
4
finding the correct socket on the charging station (labelled no.
7 in fig. 4), it is coloured black to match.
If using a wired connection (section 8.1.1 or 8.1.2) to the
transmitter/charging station, please now select your desired
input source (switch no. 6 in fig. 4).
8.1.3 First-time setup of headphones with the trans-
mitter/charging station
Warning – Battery (Akku)
• Only use suitable charging devices or USB connections for
charging.
• As a rule, do not charge devices or USB connections that
are defective and do not try to repair them yourself.
• Do not overcharge the product or allow the battery to
completely discharge.
• Avoid storing, charging or using the device in extreme
temperatures and extremely low atmospheric pressure (for
example, at high altitudes).
• When stored over a long period of time, batteries should
be charged regularly (at least every three months).
Note
Depending on your TV set, it may be muted
when using the 3.5-mm audio headphone jack.
You may need to adjust the headphone output
volume in the configuration menu of the TV (for
use with the wireless headphone system, we
recommend setting the headphone volume to
approx. 80 to 90 percent). The speaker volume
of the TV usually remains unaffected by this
setting. If not, it may need to be adjusted.
Note
Before using the headphones for the first time, make sure
that the battery is fully charged. Charge the battery for
at least 3 hours before the first use. Make sure that the
headphones are switched off during charging.
8.1.3.1 Enabling and connecting paired devices (trans-
mitter/charging station to stethoset headphones)
Ensure that when using the headphones for the first time, they
are not connected to the charging station!
Both the transmitter/charging station and the headphones
are already paired/synchronised when delivered. Now switch
the stethoset headphones ON (switch labelled no. 1 in fig.
1). The LED on the stethoset headphones (fig. 1, no. 2) starts
flashing blue slowly. Now connect the mains adapter to the
mains socket (fig. 5). The transmitter/charging station first
flashes quickly (fig. 3, LED no. 2). Then the flashing slows and
eventually remains steadily lit once the connection has been
successfully established.
Before putting on the headphones for the first time, first turn
the volume down. Now you can enjoy your analogue audio
source (TV/hi-fi or other).
