3. Setup

Follow these steps to connect your headphones to an audio source:

  1. Identify the Audio Output: Locate the audio output port on your TV, HiFi system, or other audio device. This is typically a 3.5mm (headphone) jack or a 6.35mm (quarter-inch) jack.
  2. Connect the Cable:
    • If your device has a 3.5mm jack, plug the 3.5mm connector of the headphone cable directly into the port.
    • If your device has a 6.35mm jack, screw the provided 6.35mm adapter onto the 3.5mm connector of the headphone cable, then plug the adapter into the 6.35mm port.
  3. Adjust Volume: Once connected, adjust the volume on your audio source to a comfortable listening level.

4. Operating Instructions

These headphones are designed for straightforward use:

  • Wearing the Headphones: Place the headphones over your ears, ensuring the earcups fully cover them for optimal sound and comfort. The headband is adjustable to fit various head sizes.
  • Volume Control: The headphones do not feature integrated volume control. Adjust the audio volume directly from your connected device (TV, HiFi system, etc.).
  • Cable Management: The 6-meter cable provides ample length for movement. It is recommended to fully extend the cable during use to prevent kinks or damage.
