Warning: This product is designed to work with line level outputs or
headphone outputs only. DO NOT connect it directly to speaker outputs, as
it will permanently damage the transmitter.

Important:
If you are using NiMH or NiCd batteries, the batteries will charge when the
headphones are powered with the AC power adapter. Do not power the head-
phones with the AC power adapter if you installed alkaline or other non-re-
chargeable batteries—this could cause the batteries to leak. Do not mix batter-
ies with different chemistry types (for example, a zinc battery with an alkaline
battery). Do not mix new and used batteries. Do not leave batteries installed in
the product when not in use for long periods.
