E. HOW TO SETUP
STEP 1 - Place and Connect Power to the Transmitter
Connect and plug the power adapter into a nearby electrical outlet and plug the other end of the power adapter into the “DC 12V” slot of the transmitter.
STEP 2 - Use Analog Cables to Connect Transmitter to TV
Connect the single-plug end of the audio cables (3.5mm plug) into the “Audio In” slot of the transmitter. Next, connect the dual-plug ends (red & white male
ends) into the “Audio Out” ports located on the back or side of your television, cable or satellite box.
Note: Check all sides of your television, cable or satellite box if you are unable to locate the Audio Out ports on your device. Not all televisions have audio out ports. If your television does not have audio out ports, please go to www.TrueDioEars.com and purchase the TrueDio® Ears Digital to Analog Converter (Item # TD-DAC) or call (800) 991-6207 to speak with a TrueDio® Representative.

STEP 3 - Charge Headset Prior to Use
Verify that all plugs are securely in place and that the transmitter is located in open space and free of obstructions blocking it from sending its signal to your headset (example: behind television, entertainment unit, etc.). Next, turn and power on your transmitter by sliding power switch on the back of the transmitter to the “ON” position. The red power indicator will light up confirming power is on. Next, place your headset in the transmitter charging dock for 3-5 hours to fully charge the battery prior to use.
Note: To receive optimal reception, ideal setup and placement for the transmitter is 3-5 feet above the ground with the transmitter pointed directly towards the area the headset will be worn and used.
STEP 4 – Power On and Use Headset
Turn and power on your headset by sliding the power switch to the “ON” position. The red power indicator will light up confirming power is on. To receive optimal reception, direct and point the transmitter’s infrared transmitting window toward the area you will be wearing the headset. You are now ready to use your TrueDio® Ears! Simply adjust the volume and tone to your preferred levels and enjoy!
Note: Always wear the headset with the TrueDio® Ears logo facing
outward so that the infrared receiving window can properly receive the signal from the transmitter.
STEP 5 – Power Off Headset
Turn and power off your headset by sliding the power switch to “OFF” position. The red power indicator light will turn off confirming the power is off.

G. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS - FAQ
Q1. Why am I hearing silence or no sound at all out of my headset?
First, check and confirm that all power and cable connections are securely in place. Next, confirm that the power switch on both the headset and transmitter are turned to the “ON” position and that the power indicator lights on both the headset and transmitter are showing solid red.
If the transmitter power indicator light is off when powered “ON”, then the
transmitter is likely not plugged in securely. Check connections and try again.
If the transmitter power indicator light is on and showing red when powered
“ON” and you still hear silence, then there may be an object blocking the transmitter from properly sending its signal to the headset. Remove all obstructions and confirm that the transmitter is facing and pointed towards the area you are wearing the headset. Relocate the positioning of the transmitter if necessary.
If the headset power indicator light is off when powered “ON”, then the
headset battery is dead and will need to be recharged or replaced.
