Using Vehicle Battery Power
You can power the speakers from
your vehicle’s cigarette-lighter socket
using a DC adapter (not supplied),
such as RadioShack Cat. No. 270-
1562.
Cautions:
• The recommended adapter sup-
plies 12 volts DC power and deliv-
ers at least 600 milliamps. Its
center tip can be set to positive,
and its plug properly fits the right
speaker’s
DC 12V
jack. Using an
adapter that does not meet these
specifications could damage the
speaker or the adapter.
• Always plug the DC adapter into
the speaker before you plug it into
the cigarette-lighter socket.
Always unplug the DC adapter
from the cigarette-lighter socket
before you unplug it from the
speaker.
Follow these steps to use vehicle bat-
tery power.
1. Make sure
POWER OFF/ON
is set
to
OFF
.
2. Put the 5.5 mm outer diameter/2.1
inner diameter barrel plug into the
AC adapter cord, matching TIP to
positive (+).
3. Set the adapter’s voltage switch to
12 volts.
4. Plug the adapter’s barrel plug into
the
DC 12V
jack on the rear of the
right (R) speaker.
5. Plug the other end of the adapter
into the vehicle’s cigarette-lighter
socket.
