When you remove the headphones,
the power turns off automatically
(Auto power on/off function).
Do not pull up the free-adjusting band when not
using the headphones. This may cause the auto
power on/off function to switch the headphones
back on and battery power to run down.
If no audio signal is received at the transmitter for more than 5 minutes
(approximately)
The infra-red rays being emitted from the transmitter automatically stop and the transmitter’s
POWER/CHARGE lamp goes out. These infra-red rays start being emitted again when an audio
signal is received. When the input audio (analog only) continues to be very low for more than 5
minutes (approximately), the infra-red rays being emitted from the transmitter may stop. If this
happens, increase the volume level on the connected equipment and decrease the volume level on
the headphones.
If a noise signal is input from equipment connected by the LINE IN terminal, the output of infra-red
rays may be stopped.
• The brightness of the transmitter’s infra-red signal transmission window may not be uniform. This will not effect, for
example, the range of the infra-red rays.
• Use the headphones within the range of the infra-red rays (
page 11 [Placement of transmitter and
headphones]).
• The actual location of the sound may be difficult to recognize with music and audio only sources such as music CDs.
• This unit simulates an average person’s HRTF*. However individual differences in human’s HRTF means that the
effect of this system will vary between individuals.
*An abbreviation for Head Related Transfer Function.
