Just remove the scew from the battery compartment, open the case & remove silver ring.

You'll need a small screw driver. 1. Open up your current plastic cover. 2. The wires are marked to show where each wire connects to your ringer. 3. Loosen the screw and slide the proper connector under the screw and tighten the screw. 4. I only had to use two wires. 5. The third wire can be tucked within your old case. 6. Place the small transmitter on the top of your old case. The wires will fit under your old case. I didn't use the tape that came with the unit. I found it sat on top of my old case without taping to the wall. 7. The larger movable unit will probably need batteries. 8. The movable unit has three volume settings. I found it came at it's loudest setting. The only problem I encountered, was the volume on my current ringer was reduced. I couldn't hear my door bell from my patio until I installed this unit. Problem solved.

The receiver has a place for a headset jack, but I don't remember one coming in the package. If it did, we never used it. better check with the manufacturer.

If its just the foam cover, turn the ear side of the right headphone 1/8" to the right (the opposite of how you installed the batteries on the left side), this should remove the ear piece cover, you can then stretch the foam cover back over and reinstall the entire ear piece cover. Hope this helps.

Just pull them off and press the new ones in the inside of the ear piece on the headset.

I think you need headset with a mini-jack. I suspect you can trade in the one you bought for one that features a mini-jack. I also think you can get a converter that takes the larger jack in one end and has a mini-jack on the other. Radio Shack may have one of these and it shouldn't cost more than an couple of bucks if they do. Good luck.

That would be a nice feature but sadly isn't possible. The ear buds are permanently wired to the little box. The wire from the box to your music player is replaceable at least.

Yes, there are better ear buds, but you have to make them yourself.I took a piece of 1/2'' foam rubber, cut out a small circle, just large enough to extend beyond the ear phones. Remove the original ear bud, But not the plastic part. Poke a small hole in your foam piece and force it down over the ear phone. If you use a soft foam this should be more comfortable.

There should be a small removable piece in the cradle just under where the earpiece of the headset would be. Remove this piece, turn it over or around and re-insert it. It should now stand up far enough to hold the handset in place when the phone is wall-mounted.

all my technology queries of the net revert back to answers the opposite of the solution you seek, i.e. tech-flow is forward, converting earphones-to-earbuds. As you cannot get around the control unit in which the buds are wired, you gotta work with it and think outside the box. As many older lightweight headphones essentially were bud-type devices mounted in simple foam rubber cut-outs, perhaps all you have to do is get some 1" to 1 1/2" thick foam, cut some circular pieces large enough to create the cushions you desire, then take a razor blade or X-Acto and cut a small 'x' in the center (but not all the way through), then push toe bud of the TV ear into your homemade earcushion. The Frame of the TV Ear should provide enough pressure on the cushions to hold them over your mom's ears, provided she doesn't boogie too hard while watching Lawrence Welk.

Get a an over-headset w/ mouthpiece from Staples, Amazon, etc & plug it into the hole in the side. Then you're hands-free to multi-task AND not cricking your neck! :)

You take it off "speaker" by pressing either the "talk" or "speaker" button. This will toggle the speaker phone function between earpiece and speaker.

If you do not have the "handset lifter" you have to pick the receiver up everytime. When I answer my phone at work, I have to turn on the headset and then lift the receiver. Hope this helps

There is a plastic piece under the earpiece. Remove this piece, turn it over or around and reinsert it. It will stand up high enough to hold the receiver in place when the phone is mounted on the wall. This instruction will appear in the phone's user manual.

You remove the rubber ear gasket when connecting to the headset. You use one or the other. Not both at the same time.

Don't think so. The padding over the speaker part that goes over ur ear is kinda build into the headphone. If u really wanted to remove it I'm sure u can but I don't know about replacing it

Try the TV Ears web site. I believe they offer replacement/extra headsets without the need to buy the base station.
