Safety instructions

y Please read these instructions carefully and completely

before using the system.

y Make these instructions easily accessible to all users at all

times. Always include these instructions when passing the
system on to third parties.

y Do not wear the headphones in situations which require

special attention (e.g. when performing skilled jobs).

y Always keep the system dry and do not expose it to extreme

temperatures (ideally 10-35°C).

y Use the system with care and set it up in a clean, dust-free

environment.

y Varnish or furniture polish may degrade the feet of the

transmitter, which could stain your furniture. You should
therefore place the transmitter on a non-slip pad to avoid
potential staining of furniture.

y This system allows you to set higher volumes than

conventional stethoset systems. This can cause hearing
damage in persons with healthy hearing and especially in
children.

y Please observe the safety instructions for Lithium-Ion

rechargeable batteries on the enclosed leaflet.

Intended use of the system

Intended use includes that:
y you have read these instructions, especially the chapter

y you are using the system within the operating conditions as

described in these instructions.

The RS 4200 stethoset receiver system

The RS 4200 is a wireless radio frequency stethoset receiver
system with which you can adjust the volume of your TV, radio,
personal stereo and other hi-fi equipment to suit your
individual needs. The transmitter has a range of up to 100 m
(depending on outer conditions) which allows you to move
around freely – without the constrictions of cables.

The RS 4200 is particularly easy and intuitive to operate. The
stethoset receiver automatically switches on when you pull the
earbows apart. The volume can be adjusted directly on the
receiver. The speech intelligibility can be enhanced at the press
of a button on the transmitter.

The transmitter has an integrated charging compartment for
storing the receiver and simultaneously charging the receiver’s
rechargeable battery. In addition, a spare rechargeable battery
can be charged in the small charging compartment at the side
of the transmitter.
