Getting Started

Charge Transmitter and Headphones

Connect Transmitter

Plug the transmitter into USB power. Use any powered USB port, such as a USB wall adapter. You may also use the USB port on your TV. The transmitter should be left plugged in.

Cinema 3D Headphones

Charging can take up to 3 hours. The charging light will pulse green while the headphones are charging and turn solid green once fully charged.

USB-C Cable: Plug the included USB-C cable into any powered USB-C port and into the Cinema 3D headphones.

Charging Pad: Plug the included charging pad into any powered USB port, such as the USB port on your TV. Place the charging pad against the left earcup of the Cinema 3D headphones to charge.

Note: The headphones automatically power off when the charging pad is attached and will power on when it is removed.

Setup With Connect Transmitter

Step 2: Power on Transmitter and Headphones

Connect Transmitter: Slide the switch to the "ON" position.

Cinema 3D Headphones (choose one):

• Remove the Charging Pad, OR
• Press and hold the Power Button for 3 seconds.

To power off: attach the charging pad OR press and hold the Power Button for 3 seconds.

Step 4: Plug Transmitter into TV

Choose only one audio cable supported by your TV:

Choice A: Optical

1. Remove protective caps from both ends of the digital optical S/PDIF audio cable.
2. Plug the digital optical S/PDIF audio cable into the OPTICAL audio input of the Connect.
3. Plug the other end into the TV's DIGITAL AUDIO OUT (OPTICAL) port.
4. All done! Turn on your TV and check the headphones for sound. Make sure your TV is not muted and the volume on your headphones is turned up.

Choice B: 3.5 mm

1. Plug the 3.5 mm audio cable into the 3.5 mm audio input of the Connect.
2. Plug the other end into the TV's headphone jack. The headphone jack may be located on the rear, side, front, or bottom of the TV.
3. All done! Turn on your TV and check the headphones for sound. Make sure the volume on both your TV and headphones is turned up.

Choice C: RCA

1. Plug the red/white ends of the RCA audio cable into the TV's red/white RCA AUDIO OUT port.
2. Plug the 3.5 mm end of the RCA audio cable into the 3.5 mm audio input of the Connect.
3. All done! Turn on your TV and check the headphones for sound. Make sure the volume on both your TV and headphones is turned up.

⚠ RCA jacks on TV must be designated as AUDIO OUT. RCA input jacks, commonly labeled AV IN, INPUT, or COMP IN / COMPONENT will not work.

Note: You should have ONE power cable and ONE audio cable plugged into your Connect transmitter.

Step 5: Subsequent Use

When finished listening, attach the charging pad to the Cinema 3D headphones or press and hold the Power Button for 3 seconds to power off headphones until next use.

The Connect transmitter can be left powered on and plugged into USB power for future use.

When ready to use again, simply power on the headphones as shown in Step 2 and they will reconnect automatically. A solid blue light on the Connect transmitter will indicate that a connection has been re-established.

Note: If the power cable of your Connect transmitter is plugged into your TV's USB port and it has been a week or longer since you used it, power your TV on first and give the Connect transmitter a few minutes to charge. We also recommend charging the Connect transmitter at least once every 30 days.

Pairing Bluetooth Headphones with the Connect Transmitter

This procedure is used to re-pair the Cinema 3D headphones to the Connect transmitter if they do not reconnect automatically, to pair a different headphone with the Connect transmitter, or to pair a second headphone when one is already connected.

Before pairing, perform the following steps:

• Charge Transmitter and Headphones
• Turn Your TV Off
• Power On Transmitter and Headphones

Once both the transmitter and headphones are powered on, perform the following steps:

Step 1: Put Your Bluetooth Headphones in Pairing Mode

Cinema 3D Headphones: Press and hold the VOL+ and VOL− Buttons simultaneously for 3 seconds until the status indicator light begins to flash red and blue and the headphone says "Pairing".

Other Bluetooth Headphones: Consult the user manual of your headphones for the correct pairing procedure.

Step 2: Put Connect Transmitter in Pairing Mode

Once your headphones are in pairing mode, press Pairing Button "B" once to put the Connect transmitter in pairing mode, indicated by a blinking blue light. The blinking blue light will change to solid blue once successfully paired. If two headphones are paired, two solid blue lights will be shown.
