Battery Option

The CA-492 can also be powered by batteries making it a perfect portable solution. Simply install 4 AA batteries in the battery compartment located at the back. Make sure to follow the battery indicators for correct installation.

AA + VV - AA - Voltage 0.5A 10kW 0.5A 10kW

Using The System

Turn the power switch on.

Rear panel Turn standby switch to the on position. The LED indicator is red when in stand by mode and is blue in on mode.

Your iPod / iPhone can be on or off when you place it into the dock connector. If your iPod / iPhone is on and a music track is playing you should hear sound immediately. If you don't hear anything recheck that the track is playing and the volume on the system is turned up slightly. The volume can be turned up or down using the volume + / - buttons on the front of the speaker.

NOTE: When using the speaker with batteries be sure and turn off the main power switch when you are not listening to the speaker. Stand by mode will put a slight drain on the batteries if the main power switch is not turned off.

Charging your iPod / iPhone

This docking speaker will charge most iPod / iPhone models when the AC adapter is in use. It will not charge the iPod / iPhone when used in the battery mode as this puts an additional drain on the speaker batteries.

This unit will not charge the "iPod with dock connector" (otherwise known as 3rd generation) as this iPod model requires higher voltage. It also does not charge iPod shuffle.

Connecting to iPod shuffle or other source

Your speaker system has a 3.5mm input jack located on the back. Just connect the 3.5mm plug cable that comes with the system to the headphone output jack on your iPod shuffle or other music source.
