CAUTION
You are cautioned that any changes or modications not expressly approved in this
manual could void your authority to operate this equipment.
Note:
is equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class
B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. ese limits are designed
to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential
installation. is equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause
harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined
by turning the equipment o and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit dierent from that to which the
receiver is connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
is device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules, the Canadian ICES-003 and
RSS-Gen of IC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) This device must accept any interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired operation.
IMPORTANT NOTE
To comply with FCC/IC RF exposure requirements, the following antenna
installation and device operating congurations must be satised: the antenna has
been installed by the manufacturer and no change can be made.
is device and its antenna must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with
any other antenna or transmitter.
is equipment complies with FCC/IC radiation exposure limits set forth for
uncontrolled equipment and meets the FCC/IC radio frequency (RF) Exposure
Guidelines in Supplement C of OET65. is equipment generates low level RF
energy sucient to be deemed to comply without testing of specic absorption ratio
(SAR).
For Customers in Europe

Features
is wireless microphone is designed for use with a recoding device such as video
camera or IC recorder with a microphone input jack for recording sound clearly
in monaural even when the sound source is far from the recording device.
Microphone units and earphone jacks are provided in both the microphone
(transmitter, referred to below as “microphone”) and the receiver connected to
the recording device. When earphones are connected to both the microphone and
the recording device, a person on the microphone side and another person on
the receiver side can hear the other side’s sound or voice even when far from each
other. e sound picked up by the microphone can be recorded on the recording
device. (Receiver sound cannot be recorded. If the recording device has no
headphone or earphone jack, the person on the receiver side cannot hear the other
side’s voice during recording.)
is wireless microphone can be used as a transceiver so that the sound at either
end can be monitored from the other end through earphones directly connected
to the earphone jacks of both the microphone and receiver.
is wireless microphone uses the Bluetooth wireless communication technology.
Bluetooth® Wireless Communication Technology
Bluetooth wireless communication technology allows communication between
various Bluetooth devices without using cables. Devices that can use this
technology include PCs, computer peripheral devices and mobile phones.
e microphone and the receiver are factory-set to communicate between
each other, therefore, operations usually needed for Bluetooth devices, such
as authentication, pairing and passkey input, are not necessary. However,
communication with a microphone or receiver not sold as a pair, or any other
Bluetooth devices such as mobile phones, PCs, etc., is not possible.
Notes
is wireless microphone may be aected under the following conditions.
When there are obstacles such as people, metallic objects, walls, or reective
surfaces between the microphone and the receiver.
When used in a location where a wireless LAN system environment exists, near
multiple Bluetooth devices that are operating, near a working microwave oven,
or where there are electromagnetic waves.
If the microphone is placed in close proximity to a recording device such as a
video camera or IC recorder, RF interference may result in noise in the recorded
sound. Keep the microphone at least 1 m (3 .) from the video camera during use.
If there is noise or there is no sound because of deteriorating communication, the
communication lamps on the microphone and receiver will blink rapidly. Ensure
that the distance between the devices is not too far, and no obstacles are between
them. Continue use when the communication lamp is lit constantly.
Notes on Use
Do not let any liquid or foreign objects get inside the casing.
Do not disassemble or modify the wireless microphone.
Do not use this wireless microphone in a medical institution such as a hospital,
near a medical electrical device, in an aircra, or if radio interference with another
device(s) occurs. RF energy emitted from this wireless microphone may interfere
with other devices, resulting in an accident.
e wireless communication device can be used in only the countries or regions
where obtain the authentication.
is wireless microphone is a precision instrument. Do not drop, strike or apply a
strong impact.
Keep the wireless microphone away from high temperature and humidity.
If the earphone is placed near the microphone (sound pickup unit) during
recording, a howling eect (acoustic feedback) may occur. If this happens, place
the earphone farther away from the microphone (sound pickup unit), or lower the
volume of the earphone.
If you touch the microphone during recording, noise will be recorded. Be careful
not to touch the microphone with your hands, etc.
When used at low temperature, the battery performance drops compared to use at
normal temperature (25 ºC (77 ºF)) and operating time becomes shorter.
Do not expose the batteries to excessive heat such as sunshine, re or the like.
