OVERVIEW

Would you like to watch television with crystal-clear sound that won’t disturb others in your family? Do you want to avoid hearing damage that could be caused by wearing normal wireless headphones for a long time? SIMOLIO SM-824D1 / SM-824D2 wireless TV hearing assistance and protecting headset is just made for you.

Apply with the latest 2.4GHz Digital Automatic Frequency-Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS) technology, it gives you crystal-clear sound with the freedom of a wireless connection – up to 100 feet without obstacles. You can customize your listening at a most comfortable volume level, via balance and tone controls. Our voice highlighting and noise cancelling technology dynamically reduce TV background sounds and make TV dialogues stand out. At last you can easily understand the TV dialogues at a healthy volume without worrying about your hearing being damaged.

The SIMOLIO SM-824D1 / SM-824D2 is especially helpful for hearing impaired people. It overcomes the weakness of regular hearing aids, which amplify both speech and environmental background at the same time. Normal wireless headphones for TV watching don’t help either, they also amplify everything together. What’s more, over time you’ll keep turning the volume up and up, and that can make your hearing worse and worse. Our hearing protecting headset solves these problems.

The unique “one-button push” sound amplifier function allows you to hear clearly what people are talking nearby without taking off the headsets. It’s compatible with both digital and analog audio output ports and suitable for almost all TVs and the set-top boxes on the market.

HOW TO USE

1. Check Your TV/Audio Source Output Options before the Set up

SM-824D1 / SM-824D2 is compatible with OPTICAL output, RCA (labeled “AUDIO OUT”) and AUX 3.5mm output

Note:

• Three different audio cables included: digital optical cable, RCA cable and 3.5mm cable. In the end, only one of these cables is needed to complete the installation.
• If your audio source device has an optical audio out port, please connect SIMOLIO to this port preferentially. If not, you can also connect SIMOLIO to the RCA or AUX/3.5mm or other audio out port of the audio source device.

2. Turn on the Transmitter and Headset

2.1 Power the Transmitter (Ref. Fig 2-1)
Plug the supplied AC adapter into a standard electrical outlet, plug the other end of the AC adapter into the port labeled “DC 5V” on the back of the transmitter.

3. Connect the Transmitter to Your TV/ Audio Source

Set the volume of the audio source to a level sufficient for people with normal hearing to clearly listen to the TV to ensure stable audio output. i.e. set the TV box VOL ≥ 30 % (Ref. Fig 3-1) & TV VOL ≥ 40% (Ref. Fig 3-2)

For watching TV quietly without disturbing others, the right way is: Mute your TV by pressing the MUTE button on the remote control or choose any speaker option other than TV Speaker in the TV Sound Output settings.(Ref. Fig 3-3)

• The above settings may differ from various TVs.

• If you cannot get to the back of your TV and you only watch the programs through a fixed TV box (cable/satellite box/DVD etc.), you can also use these instructions to install the system to your TV box.
• Be aware that the base should be placed at least 4 feet away from your Router/ smart WiFi TV/TV sticks/WiFi TV box to avoid interference.

Step 1. Hook up SIMOLIO to the Optical Audio Out Port of the TV/other Audio Device

Step 2. TV Audio Format and Speaker Setting (use TV remote control)
If you can not hear sound from your headsets after connecting:

• Ensure TV Audio Format is set to “PCM” or “Dolby/DTS” is OFF (This is IMPORTANT, Ref. Fig 3-6)

For most TVs, the TV’s internal speakers and an external audio device can work simultaneously. Such as, for some newer LG TVs, when do optical audio connection, you can set the “Sound Out” to “Internal TV Speaker + Audio Out (optical)”. And for some newer Samsung TVs, you can enable this feature by selecting “TV Speaker” from the TV Sound Output lists.
