INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing the Total PA™ Apex. At ION, your entertainment is as important to us as it is to you. That's why we design our products with one thing in mind—to make your life more fun and more convenient.

Note: Before you first use the product, please fully charge the batteries. Your unit was purposely shipped with a reduced battery charge to ensure safe transit. For optimal charging, power off the speaker while charging.

Use the included power cable to connect the unit to a power outlet and let it charge for up to 5 hours. This helps ensure the longest life for your battery.

Charging and Battery Information

Pure electrical circuit lines without any symbols

For the quickest charging time, power off Total PA ^™ Apex and use the included power cable to connect the speaker to a power outlet. A full charge can take up to 5 hours.

The lightning bolt icon on the display will light up when Total PA™ Apex is connected to a power source and charging. The battery icon will fill to display the battery life percentage. When charging is complete, the lightning bolt icon will disappear, and the battery icon will be completely filled.

If no audio is played through Total PA™ Apex for 20 minutes, the unit will enter a standby mode to conserve battery life. This may mean the Bluetooth signal is paused, no audio is coming through a device connected to the aux port, or the volume is set to 0. To wake the unit, simply resume audio signal or press any button.

Here are some other recommendations for getting the longest life from the internal battery.

General Usage

Fully charge the battery before using it.

Avoid full discharge of the battery if possible. Li-Ion batteries are maintenance-free, and the battery will last longest when operating between 30 and 80 percent charged.

Do not use the product while charging the battery.

Do not charge the battery in exceedingly hot (greater than 90^ F/ 32^ C) or exceedingly cold (less than 32^ F/ 0^ C) temperatures.

Storage For best product longevity, do not store at exceedingly hot (greater than 90^ F/ 32^ C) or exceedingly cold (less than 32^ F/ 0^ C) temperatures.

For best product longevity, store product with a 50% battery charge.

If you leave the battery level low and do not charge it for 6 months, it may permanently lose capacity.

Repair

If the battery fails to charge, contact ION Audio at ionaudio.com.

Disposal

Bring the unit to a recycling center or dispose of in accordance with local ordinances.

Quick Start

1. Make sure all items listed in the Box Contents are included in the box. Look in the box under the foam sheet for the power cable and microphone.
2. Study the Connection Diagram.
3. Make sure all input devices (such as microphones, CD players, or digital media players) are turned off with their volume settings set to "zero."

4. Connect all devices as shown in the Connection Diagram.

5. Switch everything on in the following order:

a. Audio input devices (e.g. microphones, instruments, CD players)
b. Total PA ^TM Apex

1. Adjust the level of your connected devices. Turn audio source (microphone, instruments, Bluetooth devices) volume all the way up. Then, adjust the SSource Volume knob for the selected channel on Total PA™ Apex to an appropriate level. Finally, adjust the Main Volume on Total PA™ Apex to an appropriate level. For a detailed step-by-step process for setting your levels, please refer to the Balancing Your Levels section on the following page.

2. When you are finished using Total PA ^™ Apex, switch everything off in the following order:

a. Total PA ^TM Apex
b. Audio input devices

Balancing Your Levels

This process shows how you can quickly balance your microphone signal(s) and the signal from your Source Device (Bluetooth, Aux, USB). Levels for the microphones, source, and main volume can be set anywhere between 0 to 30.

1. Power on Total PA ^™ Apex and the wireless microphone. Connect your preferred Bluetooth, Aux device, or USB drive.
2. Using the MMain Volume on the speaker, set the volume to around 10 or lower while balancing your levels. This will allow you to set your levels to a clear and audible level without being overpowering. You can adjust it again later once a balance has been achieved.
3. Adjust the Source Volume Knob down to 0. We'll turn this up in a later step.
4. Set the MIC 1 Volume using either the +/- volume control on the microphone or the MIC 1 Volume Knob on the speaker. Setting the level to 25 is a good starting point if you're unsure. If using a second, wired microphone, use the MIC 2 Volume Knob to set the levels the same way until both microphones are clearly audible.
5. Now, set the volume on your Aux or Bluetooth source device (phone, tablet, etc.) to 100%. This will guarantee a strong signal.
6. With the SSource Volume Knob still set to 0, start playback on your device and slowly turn up the Source Volume knob on the speaker until it reaches a clear and audible level. If you are using a microphone, set the source volume level to where you can still hear the microphone above the music.
7. Once the microphone and audio source are clearly audible and balanced, use the Main Volume knob to set the overall output level of the speaker to your desired volume.

For specific troubleshooting steps, please see the Troubleshooting section.

SETUP

Speaker Stand Installation

1. Fully extend the speaker stand tripod legs on a flat, stable surface.
2. Raise the mounting pole up to the appropriate height needed and tighten the side adjustment knob.
3. Insert the pin into the bottom pin-hole so the mounting pole stays at your set height.
4. On the Total PA™ Apex, adjust the bottom knob counter-clockwise so the screw is not blocking the opening.
5. Line up the Total PA™ Apex mounting hole with the speaker stand pole and place on the pole.
6. Tighten the mounting knob clockwise on Total PA™ Apex to secure it to the pole.

TROUBLESHOOTING

If the sound is distorted. You may need to adjust the levels of your sources and Total PA™ Apex for proper mixing.

i. First, turn your source volume all the way up.

ii. Then, adjust the selected Channel Volume (VOL) knob on Total PA ^™ Apex to an appropriate level.

iii. Finall y, adjust the Main Volume to an appropriate level.

If the sound is still distorted, try lowering the volume control of your sound source, then lowering the Channel Volume (VOLI) knob on Total PA™ Apex of the channel in use.

I hear a hum when cables are connected:

- Disconnect cables from the input jacks to see if it's a faulty cable.

- Make sure the signal cables are not placed near power cables.

- Connect all audio equipment power cables to outlets which share a common ground.

If there is too much bass: Try adjusting the EQ control on your sound source or on Total PA™ Apex to lower the bass level. This will allow you to play the music louder before clipping (distortion) occurs.

What do I do if the wireless media is not working??:

- Check to see that the batteries are properly installed.

• Install two fresh AA batteries (not included) in the orientation indicated in the compartment. The microphone should pair automatically if Total PA™ Apex is powered on. If it does not, press and hold the + and - buttons on the microphone for 3 seconds to reset mic pairing.

If there is a high-pitched whistling noise when using microphones. This is probably feedback. Point the microphone away from the speaker.

If you can't hear the microphone over the music volume:

i. First, turn down the volume from your source using the appropriate C Channel Volume (VOL) knob on Total PA™ Apex.

ii. Then, make sure your microphone volume is turned all the way up (if applicable), and then turn up the appropriate Channel Volume (VOL) knob on Total PA™ Apex where the microphone is connected.

If you cannot connect your audio device to Total PA™ Apex via Bluetooth:

- Have your audio device (e.g., smartphone or tablet) and Total PA™ Apex as close together as possible while trying to connect. Make sure both the audio device and Total PA™ Ap ex are unobstructed by walls, furniture, etc.

- Reset the Bluetooth connection on Total PA™ Apex to disconnect Total PA™ Apex from any other audio device and restart the search process. If this does not work right away, power off Total PA™ Apex and then power it back on. See Pairing a Bluetooth®Device for more information.

- Reset the Bluetooth connection on your audio device by turning Bluetooth off and back on. You can find this under the Bluetooth menu in the Settings for your phone or other audio device.

If this does not work, and you have connected to Total PA™ Apex before, find Total PA™ Apex in the list of available or previously connected devices in your audio device's Bluetooth menu, tap the "gear" or "i" icon located next to it and then select Unpair or Forget. Turn Total PA™ Apex off and back on and try pairing again once it reappears in your available devices list.

Note: If Total PA™ Apex has been paired to another audio device recently that is still within range, you may need to repeat this process with that audio device to fully disconnect.

If you experience audio dropouts while playing music from a Bluetooth device, this may be happening because your unit is trying to link to another speaker. This can occur if you power off a speaker that was linked to your unit or if you have just turned on your unit and it is in Stereo-Link™ mode. To stop the audio dropouts, exit Stereo-Link™ mode by double-pressing the Stereo-Link™ / Repeat button. Alternatively, you can wait for your unit to link to another speaker if there is one within range.
