Important safety instructions

왘Read this instruction manual carefully and completely before

using the product.

왘Always include this instruction manual when passing the prod-

uct on to third parties.

왘Do not use an obviously defective product.

왘Only use the product in environments where wireless 2.4 GHz

transmission is permitted.

Preventing damage to health and accidents

왘These headphones allow you to set higher volumes than conven-

tional headphones. Protect your hearing from high volume lev-

els.

Permanent hearing damage may occur when headphones are

used at high volume levels for long periods of time. Sennheiser

headphones sound exceptionally good and provide clear speech

intelligibility at low and medium volume levels.

왘To prevent hearing damage, set the volume to a low level before

passing the product on to third parties.

왘Do not use the product in an environment that requires your spe-

cial attention (e.g. in traffic or when performing skilled jobs).

왘Always keep the headphones/MCA 800 charging adapter at

least 3.94" (10 cm) from cardiac pacemakers or implanted

defibrillators. The headphones/MCA 800 charging adapter con-

tain/s magnets that generate a magnetic field which could cause

interference with cardiac pacemakers and implanted defibrilla-

tors.

왘Do not use the product near water. To reduce the risk of fire or

electric shock, do not expose the product to rain or moisture.

왘Keep the product, accessories and packaging parts out of reach

of children and pets to prevent accidents and choking hazards.

왘Only use the power supply units supplied by Sennheiser.

Preventing damage to the product and malfunctions

왘Always keep the product dry and do not expose it to extreme

temperatures to avoid corrosion or deformation. The normal

operating temperature is from 5 to 40 °C/41 to 104 °F.

왘Use the product with care and store it in a clean, dust-free envi-

ronment.

왘Switch off the product after use to conserve battery power.

왘Unplug the power supply unit from the wall socket

– to completely disconnect the product from the power source,

– during lightning storms or

– when not using the product for long periods of time.

Important safety instructions

4 | RS 5000

왘Always ensure that the power supply unit is

– in a safe operating condition and easily accessible,

– properly plugged into the wall socket,

– only operated within the permissible temperature range,

– not exposed to direct sunlight for longer periods of time in

order to prevent heat accumulation.

왘Varnish or furniture polish may degrade the feet of the transmit-

ter, which could stain your furniture. You should therefore place

the transmitter on a non-slip pad to avoid potential staining of

furniture.

왘Do not operate the product near heat sources.

왘Clean the product only with a soft, dry cloth.

왘Use only attachments/accessories/spare parts supplied or rec-

ommended by Sennheiser.
