Safety instructions
Intended use This device is intended to be used for the wireless transmission
of audio signals, particularly voice transmission during guided tours and
events. Any other use or use under other operating conditions is considered to
be improper and may result in personal injury or property damage. No liability
will be assumed for damage resulting from improper use. This product may be
used only by persons with sufficient physical, sensory, and intellectual
abilities and with the relevant knowledge and experience. Other persons may
use this device only if they are supervised or instructed by a person who is
responsible for their safety. Risk of injury and choking hazard for children!
Children can suffocate on packaging material and small parts. Children can
injure themselves when handling the product. Never allow children to play with
the packaging material and the device. Always store packaging material out of
the reach of babies and small children. Always dispose of packaging material
properly when it is not in use. Never allow children to use the device without
supervision. Keep small parts away from children and make sure that the device
does not shed any small parts (such as knobs) that children could play with.
Possible hearing damage due to high volumes on headphones or earphones! The
use of headphones or earphones at high volumes or for an extended period of
time may result in permanent hearing impairment. Set the volume of your audio
device to a medium value. Do not use the headphones or earphones for more than
about an hour a day. Risk of injury due to incorrect handling of lithium
batteries! In the event of a short circuit, overheating or mechanical damage,
lithium batteries can cause severe injuries. Handle lithium batteries in a
correct and professional manner. Store lithium batteries in a cool and dry
place in their original packaging. Keep lithium batteries away from sources of
heat. Never open lithium batteries. Only charge rechargeable lithium batteries
with a suitable charger. Remove the lithium batteries before disposing of the
device. Cover the poles of used lithium batteries with adhesive tape to
prevent short circuits. Electrolyte can escape from damaged lithium batteries.
Put the damaged lithium battery in air-tight packaging. Collect the
electrolyte with absorbent paper. Wear rubber gloves while doing so.
Possible damage to lithium-ion batteries through incorrect storage!
Deep discharge can permanently damage lithium-ion batteries or cause them to
lose some of their capacity. Charge the lithium-ion batteries before longer
breaks in use and before storage. Ensure that the device is switched off for
storage. Store the device at room temperature or cooler in an environment as
dry as possible. Recharge the lithium-ion batteries about every three months
if they are stored for a longer period of time to avoid permanent damage due
to too deep self-discharge. Fully charge the lithium-ion batteries at room
temperature immediately before use.
Radio interference due to electromagnetic signals!
The unit emits electromagnetic radio signals. Overlapping radio waves may
cause interference with the device and other devices. Do not use the device in
locations where the use of wireless devices is prohibited.
Operating location
Never use this product:
in direct sunlight in conditions of extreme temperature or humidity in
extremely dusty or dirty places in locations where the device may get wet in
the vicinity of magnetic fields
General handling
To prevent damage, never exert force while operating the device. Never immerse
the device in water. Wipe only with a clean and dry
cloth. Do not use liquid cleaners such as benzene, thinners or flammable
cleaning agents
Keep the device away from impurities!
Keep the device away containers with liquid. Should liquid enter the device,
this could lead to its destruction or fire. Ensure that no metallic parts
enter the device.
Notes on radio transmission
This equipment uses a frequency range that is free of charge and registration
within the European Union (EU). For more information, please visit: www.
thomann.de. During operation, make sure that transmitter and receiver are set
to the same channel. Never set more than one transmitter to the same channel.
Make sure that no metal objects are located between transmitter and receiver.
Avoid interference by other radio and in-ear systems.
