Headset Charging

Even when the Elite 800 operates via wired connection to mobile devices, it can still use the internal amplifier and so requires
power from its rechargeable battery. When charging, both the Headset Power LED and the Transmitter LED will glow Red.

A

B

C

1.Connect the USB end of the USB Transmitter Cable to a USB port on the game console or computer.

2.Connect the micro-USB end of the USB Charging Cable to the Power and Chat USB Port on the Transmitter.

3. Place the Headset on the Transmitter. Align the charging contacts on the right earcup of the Headset with the charging pins
on the right side of the Transmitter.

NOTE: The Status LED on the front of the Transmitter will turn Red when the Headset is properly seated on the Transmitter. If
the Status LED is Blue or Pink, properly align the charging contacts of the Headset. If you are running older headset firmware
you may hear “Powering On, Power Off” prompts when first charging the headset. This is normal.

It is also possible to recharge the Headset during game play, with the use of a third-party USB-A-to-micro-USB cable, sold
separately. We recommend a cable of sufficient length for comfortable game play.

A

1. Connect the USB end of the third-party cable to a USB port on the game console or computer.

2. Connect the micro-USB end of the third-party cable to the USB Charging Port on the Headset.

NOTE: The Power LED on the Headset does not indicate charging status when you recharge via USB cable.

WARNING: Never fully deplete the battery then put the unit in storage, as this may cause irreversible damage to the battery.

Following these simple guidelines will ensure that your Turtle Beach wireless headset will provide many hours of enjoyment.

NOTE: In order to achieve and maintain optimal battery performance for your Turtle Beach wireless headset, proper care is
required when charging and storing. Always charge the battery before storing the unit for more than 3 months! Never store the
unit in temperatures above 113°F/45°C. Store the headset at room temperature (72°F/22.5°C) and at humidity below 75%.

system works by sensing outside noise with the built-in microphones and sending an equal-but-opposite signal into the
headphones. The soft cushions of the Elite 800 also help block external sound, providing an added level of noise reduction.

• To turn on Active Noise Cancellation (ANC), with the headset on, press the Power/ANC Button. A voice prompt in the Headset
will confirm your selection and the Power LED will flash Pink.

• To turn off ANC, with the headset on, press the Power/ANC Button again. A voice prompt in the Headset will confirm your
selection and the Power LED will flash Blue.

NOTE: To comply with safety requirements in airline use, be sure that Elite 800 Bluetooth operation is turned off.

Troubleshooting Tips

No sound

Possible cause Solution

Power is off Confirm that the Headset is on. The Headset Power LED should be illuminated.

Dead/low battery Recharge the Headset. See “Headset Charging,” page 10.

NOTE: The Ear Force Audio Hub app for Android™ phones and tablets enables you
to check battery status.

Game Volume turned down Press the Game Volume Up Button on the Headset.

Loose connection In game console and computer use, confirm that Transmitter is firmly connected.

Check that the USB Transmitter Cable and Digital Optical Cable are completely
seated at both ends.

In mobile use, confirm that the Mobile Cable plugs are firmly seated in the Headset
and the mobile device.

Lost pairing Confirm that the Status LED on the Transmitter stays on. If the LED is slowly pulsing,

it indicates that the Transmitter isn’t communicating with the Headset.

See “Pairing the Headset and Transmitter,” page 24.

Poor Wi-Fi transmission For best performance, stay within 30 feet from the Transmitter.

Confirm that there is no wall or other large object between the Headset
and Transmitter.

Confirm that the location of the Transmitter is clear of obstructions and isolated
from Wi-Fi base stations or other potential sources of interference.

Audio Drops, Popping or Clicking Sounds

Possible cause Solution

Poor Wi-Fi transmission For best performance, stay within 30 feet from the Transmitter.

Confirm that there is no wall or other large object between the Headset
and Transmitter.

Confirm that the location of the Transmitter is clear of obstructions and isolated from
Wi-Fi base stations or other potential sources of interference.

Voice Chat Drops

Most in-game voice chat drops are caused by network congestion or “lag.” They usually subside after a few moments so please
be patient. In extreme cases, you may need to leave the game and return to reset the chat function.
If you use a wireless internet connection, low signal strength from your modem/router can make the voice chat malfunction.
For best results, we recommend a wired connection from your modem/router to your computer.

Important Safety Information

To avoid potential damage to the device, always disconnect all cables before transporting it.

WARNING: Permanent hearing damage can occur if a headset is used at high volumes for extended periods of time, so
it is important to keep the volume at a safe level. Over time, your ears adapt to loud volume levels, so a level that may
not cause initial discomfort can still damage your hearing. If you experience ringing in your ears after listening with the
headset, it means the volume is set too loud.

The louder the volume is set, the less time it takes to affect your hearing. So, please take care to listen at moderate
levels.

• Before placing a headset on your ears, turn the volume down completely, then slowly increase it to a comfortable level.

• Turn down the volume if you can’t hear people speaking near you.

• Avoid turning up the volume to block out noisy surroundings.

(“Product”) will be free of defects in materials and workmanship for a period of one year from the date of purchase by the Purchaser (“Warranty
Period”). Any Extended Warranty or Service Plans purchased through a Retail store are not honored by VTB. The Warranty refers to the repair/replace­ment of a defective product during this period and not a refund.

This limited warranty is extended only to the original Purchaser of a new product, which was not sold “AS IS”. It is not transferable or assignable to any
subsequent purchaser. This limited warranty is applicable only in the country or territory where the Product was purchased from an authorized VTB
retailer and does not apply to a Product that has been purchased as used or refurbished or was included as part of a non-VTB product.

WARRANTY SERVICE:
In the USA and CANADA Warranty Service is provided by our Turtle Beach USA offices and in all other Countries it is provided by our local International
Distributors when available. Refurbished/Recertified products are sold on an AS IS basis with a 90-day Warranty or less in accordance with each ven­dor’s policy.

VTB does not warrant uninterrupted or error-free operation of the Product and is under no obligation to support the Product for all computer operating
systems or future versions of such operating systems.

If a defect should occur during the Warranty Period, Purchaser must contact VTB to obtain a Return Merchandise Authorization (“RMA”) number on the
basis of the dated purchase receipt. Purchaser will be responsible for shipping costs incurred in returning the defective Product to an authorized VTB
service center, or to the repair facility located at VTB’s corporate headquarters. VTB will not be responsible for other products or accessories included
with the defective Product sent to VTB. The RMA number must be clearly indicated on the outside of the package. Packages without an RMA number
will be refused by VTB or its representatives and returned to sender at the sender’s expense.

In the event of a defect, Purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedy, and VTB’s sole liability, is expressly limited to the correction of the defect by adjust­ment, repair, or replacement of the Product at VTB’s sole option and expense. VTB owns all Products it has replaced and all parts removed from
repaired Products. VTB uses new and reconditioned parts made by various manufacturers in performing warranty repairs and building replacement
products. If VTB repairs or replaces a product, the original Warranty Period is not extended, however, VTB warrants that repaired or replacement parts
will be free from defects in material and workmanship for a period of thirty (30) days from the date of repair or replacement, or for the remainder of
the Warranty Period, whichever is greater.

This warranty does not apply to any Product that has had its serial number altered, removed or defaced, or any Product damage caused by shipping,
improper storage, accident, problems with electrical power, abuse, misuse, neglect, ordinary wear, acts of God (e.g. flood), failure to follow directions,
improper maintenance, use not in accordance with product instructions, unauthorized modification or service of the Product or damage resulting from
the use of the Product with hardware, software or other products not provided by or specifically recommended by VTB.

month Warranty.

THIS LIMITED WARRANTY IS PURCHASER’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY AND IS IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. TO THE
EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, VTB HEREBY DISCLAIMS THE APPLICABILITY OF ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS
FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR USE FOR THE PRODUCT. IF SUCH A DISCLAIMER IS PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE IMPLIED WARRANTY IS
LIMITED TO THE DURATION OF THE FOREGOING LIMITED WRITTEN WARRANTY.

IN NO EVENT SHALL VTB BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, OR DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT
NOT LIMITED TO ANY LOST PROFITS, DATA, OR LOSS OF USE, ANY THIRD PARTY CLAIMS, AND ANY INJURY TO PROPERTY OR BODILY INJURY (INCLUD­ING DEATH) TO ANY PERSON, ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO THE USE OF THIS PRODUCT OR ARISING FROM BREACH OF THE WARRANTY, BREACH OF
CONTRACT, NEGLIGENCE, TORT, OR STRICT LIABILITY, EVEN IF VTB HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

This warranty supersedes all prior agreements or understandings, oral or written, relating to the Product, and no representation, promise or condi­tion not contained herein will modify these terms. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the
above exclusion or limitation may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights. You may also have other rights, which vary from state
to state. Any action or lawsuit for breach of warranty must be commenced within eighteen (18) months following the purchase of the Product.
