HEADSET

Charge the Headset

Whether you purchased our Original or Digital version, all 5.0 headsets should be charged for 14 hours BEFORE first use. This step will instruct you on how to appropriately charge the headset to make sure you’re getting the best use possible.

• Turn the volume knob of the headset to the “off” position. You should hear and feel a ‘click’ when the knob has been turned all the way off.
• Place the headset into the transmitter’s charging cradle and be sure the front of the headset is facing towards you. The TV.Ears logo should be visible on both the front of the headset as well as the front of the transmitter. Press down on the headset when it is in the cradle until it is secure. The headset should slightly stick in the cradle when you try to remove it. The charging light will illuminate when the headset is in the correct position. When fully charged, the headset should last about 4-6 hours.
• NOTE:  To prevent the battery from wearing down prematurely, charge the headset for 14 hours upon arrival and do not store it unused for long periods of time.
