Safety Notice
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 impor tant 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.
Ear Force PBT Overview
The Turtle Beach Ear Force PBT is a Bluetooth® communicator device for the PlayStation 3. It allows
wireless connectivity to the PS3™ for live chat with others over the PlayStation Network. The PBT is
unique because unlike other Bluetooth communicators, in addition to pairing with your PS3, it can
simultaneously pair with your mobile phone too. The PBT’s dual-pairing feature maximizes
convenience when gaming because you can instantly switch from in-game chatting to take a phone
call—with just a single press of a button. With the PBT’s 2.5mm mic jack you can even use the
wireless Ear Force X31 or X41 headsets on the PlayStation 3. All the innovative features that make
Turtle Beach’s X31 and X41 excellent XBOX 360 headsets can now be enjoyed on the PS3 .
IMPORTANT
Before using your PBT for the rst time, you must fully charge its internal battery and pair it with your
PS3 as described later in this User’s Guide.
