Installing the Batteries
Connecting the Power Adapter
The X2 base unit is
powered by a DC power
adapter, (included).
Insert the power
adapter into the
power jack on the
back of the base unit.
When the adapter is
inserted into the base
unit and plugged into
a wall socket, a red light on the
front of the base unit will light up
to indicate that power is active.
PLEASE NOTE: To conserve battery power,
the X2 headphones automatically power off
after 2 minutes without a signal. To use the
headphones after they have auto-shut down,
turn the power switch to the "off" position,
then "on" again.
CAUTION: Use only the supplied power
adapter. Failure to use the correct adapter
can result in fire, damage to the unit or other
hazards.
Important Information
1. Be careful when turning on the
master volume control on the
headphones. Before placing the
headphones over your ears, set the
volume control to minimum, then
slowly increase until you reach a
comfortable level.
2. CAUTION: Use only the supplied
power adapter. Failure to use the
correct power adapter can result in
fire and permanent damage to the
base transmitter unit.
3. Like any speakers, overdriving
headphones may cause damage to
both the headphones and your ears.
Please listen at moderate levels.
4. WARNING: Long term exposure to
loud music or other sounds in
headphones may cause hearing
damage. It is best to avoid extreme
volume levels when using
headphones, especially for extended
periods. Over time, your ears adapt to
the volume level, so a level that may
not cause initial discomfort might still
damage your hearing.
About the X2 Headphones
Ear Force X2 wireless headphones
use infrared (IR) technology to
transmit sound from the base unit to
the headphones. The IR light beam is
received by sensors in each earpiece,
so the headphones must be within
sight of the base unit in order to
operate properly.
The X2 is perfect for listening to game
audio on an Xbox or other game
console, and may also be used as a
high-fidelity wireless headphone for
home theater sound, PC audio, MP3
players, etc. Please refer to the other
side of this guide for instructions
on how to connect the X2 to these
systems.
Infrared light beam
sensors are located
in each ear cup
