Sleep Timer
Turning On
MINI
with the Power Button results in continuous play, until the
Sleep Timer is turned on. In Internal Audio mode the Sleep Timer sets
MINI
to
play for some number of minutes and then gradually shut Off.
External Audio Mode
When no Audio Cable is plugged in to
MINI
it is in Internal Audio Mode. When an
Audio Cable is plugged in, the unit automatically switches to External Audio
Mode and
MINI
can be used to listen to an external audio source. This allows
you to listen to an MP3 player, PC audio, movie soundtrack, or any other audio
source from any device with a standard headphone or line-out connector.
The standard 3.5 mm Audio Input Jack is located on the upper
right side of
MINI
(Audio Cable supplied). Simply connect the
headphone jack, or line-out jack, of the audio source to the Audio
Input Jack on the
MINI
with the supplied Audio Cable and adjust
the volume to your liking. When you remove the Audio Cable,
MINI
switches back to Internal Audio Mode and plays the selected
Sound. Please note that volume and other settings are maintained
and saved separately for External Audio Mode and the Internal
Audio Modes (Adaptive and Manual Modes).
In External Audio Mode the Adaptive Button can be used to increase the audio
input level 6 dB. If you turn the Boost on (Adaptive light green), and the audio
material sounds distorted, you should turn the Boost off. The Boost may be
automatically disabled if operating
MINI
with weak batteries.
CAUTION:
It is best to connect the audio source with care: 1) Turn
MINI
volume down 2) Connect one end of Audio Cable to sound source 3) Connect
other end of the Audio Cable to the
MINI
Audio Input Jack 4) Turn on 6 dB
Boost if desired 5) Adjust the
MINI
volume to the desired listening level.
