D Connectors
The QD-connector is used to connect the Phonak FreeCom headset to the FreeCom Adapter.
It can be easily connected and disconnected, allowing a pilot to leave his/her seat without
needing to remove the headset or disconnect the FreeCom adapter from the aircraft's main
panel (e.g. for getting out of the plane while keeping a hearing protection).
u To open: pull apart the connector housing (never pull on the cables!)
u To close: the white markings on both connector housings must be aligned and then pushed
together (Fig 18).
u Do not turn on the cable screw jonts.
u Do not fold the cable (Fig 19).
u Never pull any connector by the cable! This may damage the cable and the connector and
cause communication problems.
