1. Using the latch located just above the Sensaphonics logo, open the 

(F) battery compartment 

and insert a 9V alkaline battery. The battery 

fits

 only one way: negative terminal up, positive terminal down. 

2.  Plug  one  end  of  the  supplied  black, 12-inch  jumper  cable  into

the 

(E) IEM Input jack 

 of the 3D bodypack (labeled “Monitor Input”)

on the left side panel. Plug the other end of the jumper cable into your 
sound source (e.g., wireless IEM bodypack) where conventional 
earphones would plug in. We recommend  looping  the  cable  through 

the 

(H) strain relief 

slot beneath the jack prior to plugging in the cable.

The 3D AARO system is designed to work in concert with a 
conventional wireless personal monitor system. To set up your 
system, you will need a fresh 9V alkaline battery and a working 
sound source, such as a wireless in-ear monitor (IEM) system, DJ 
mixer, or portable music player. Please refer to the photos indicat-
ing the various controls and features of the 3D-AARO bodypack 
mixer. (NOTE: Your system was shipped with a fresh battery 
installed and the earphones connected.)
