CONNECTORS DEFINED
MEDIA DEVICE INPUT CONNECTOR:
THIS CONNECTOR ALLOWS THE ADAPTER TO ACCEPT INDUSTRY STANDARD INPUT FROM A MEDIA
PLAYBACK DEVICE OR OTHER PHONO JACK / RCA STYLE AUDIO OUTPUT. SOME EXAMPLES OF
COMPATIBLE MEDIA DEVICES ARE IPODS OR LIKE MP3 PLAYERS, MINI-DISC AND CD PLAYERS, EVEN
AFTERMARKET SOURCE UNITS USING AN RCA TO PHONO JACK ADAPTER.
NOTE: ALTHOUGH WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND USING THE LOW LEVEL INPUT CABLES WE SUPPLY WITH THE KIT,
TECHNICALLY YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO UTILIZE ANY STANDARD PHONO JACK ADAPTER CABLE FOUND AT YOUR
LOCAL ELECTRONIC STORE TO MAKE THIS CONNECTION. IT’S OUR GOAL TO KEEP THINGS SIMPLE AND STANDARD IF
AT ALL POSSIBLE.
USB CHARGING CONNECTOR(S):
THIS CONNECTOR ALLOWS FOR DEVICE CHARGING THOUGH AN INDUSTRY STANDARD USB
CONECTION CABLE. SOME EXAMPLES OF COMPATIBLE DEVICES TO BE CHARGED ARE IPODS OR
LIKE MP3 PLAYERS, MINI-DISC AND CD PLAYERS, CELL PHONES, PDA OR OTHER COMPUTING
DEVICES, DIGITAL CAMERAS, ETC. A +5VDC CHARGING CIRCUIT PROVIDES POWER AS LONG AS THE
BIKES CHARGING SYSTEM PROVIDES AT LEAST +12VDC. IF THE BIKES CHARGING SYSTEM DROPS
BELOW +12VDC, THE CHARGING CIRCUIT IS SHUT DOWN TO AVOID A DEAD BATTERY SITUATION.
TIP: THE USB CHARGING CONNECTOR CAN BE ADAPTED FROM DIFFERENT STYLE USB CONNECTORS USING INDUSTRY
STANDARD USB ADAPTERS. IF YOU CAN CONNECT YOUR DEVICE TO A USB CONNECTOR ON YOUR COMPUTER, THEN
YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO CHARGE IT WITH THIS ADAPTER.

VOLUME ADJUSTMENT:
THIS CONTROLS THE OVERALL VOLUME OF THE AUDIO SYSTEM. KEEP IN MIND THAT MOST MEDIA
PLAYERS WILL HAVE THEIR OWN VOLUME SETTING, AND SHOULD BE ADJUSTED SO THAT MAXIMUM
VOLUME CAN BE ACHIEVED WITHOUT CAUSING SPEAKER DISTORTION.
BASS / TREBLE ADJUSTMENT:
THESE CONTROLS ADJUST THE TONAL CHARACHTERISTICS OF THE AUDIO PLAYBACK. ALWAYS
ADJUST THEM WITHIN A RANGE THAT DOES NOT CAUSE SPEAKER DISTORTION.
